No new software or drivers or anything new installed. There was a lot of dust buildup inside the case and on the cooling fins. I thought it was initially a heat issue, but have thoroughly cleaned it with compressed air. The first BSOD happened in the middle of the night with nothing running.
I have only gotten a bsod twice. the first one at night and the second hours and many reboots later. the computer just continually reboots. Using msconfig I have selected selective start up. It will not let me deselect win ini, but it shows it empty. I deselect everything else and it will stay stable a few minutes later but will reboot after about 5 minutes of running. Dr. Watson must be old and leftover, as I have not reinstalled anything today. I have uninstalled avg anti virus and looked over the remove program listing but havent seen anything that jumps out at me.
It seems to me my xp install might be screwed. I am considering doing a repair install of xp to see if I can salvage it. I have an xp disc not a recovery disc.
Thanks
