I have a Lenovo 8823 3AQ desktop PC with the following config:
CPU Type: Intel Pentium 4, 3066 MHz (23 x 133)
Motherboard Chipset Intel Morgan Hill i865GV
RAM: 1014 MB (PC3200 DDR SDRAM)
BIOS Type Award (07/12/06)
Video Adapter Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller
3D Accelerator Intel Extreme Graphics 2
I am having two problems while working on my system. I think they are related:
1. Since the last week or so, the system restarts randoml;y at least 5-6 times a day. I read similar posts on this forum and followed whatever steps were mentioned to help resolve the problem. Such as I did a Memtest, Defrag, Virus scan etc. I also updated the chipset drivers. But the problem still persists. All of the tests came out negative, i.e. the memory chips are fine, no virus, spyware, mboard is working fine as well.
Now I am wits end as I have done whatever I could do to fix it. The system is barely 3 months old so I am not too keen on spending more money to change any components unless I can convince myself that the hardware is actually problematic.
I am attaching the last memdumps. If you require the detailed system specs, do let me know.
2. When I return to my system after a small break, I find that the colors havce been reset to 16 colors, 640 * 480 resolution and the following message displays:
"the ialmrnt5 display driver has stopped working normally. Save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality. The next time you reboot the machine a dialog will be displayed giving you a chance to upload data about this failure to Microsoft."
Once I restart the machine, things are back to normal. This too happens at least twice a day. I removed the display drivers and installed the latest drivers from the Intel site but the result is the same. The Event Log contains this description for the error:
