Hello
Recently I left my computer in standby mode for about 10 hours, and when I clicked a key, I saw the desktop area, got a pretty long error message (from windows) which I didn't manage to read because immediately after, a blue screen appeared and then a restart (Automatically restart ticked).
I will also mention that I left my computer in stand by mode for 2 times, 2 nights before that, and there wasn't a problem for it to get back to desktop and keep working normal.
Before that I did not put it in stand by mode for many months. I just left it on during days/nights.
A while ago, in an older thread I asked about a problem with BSODs while gaming, but it seems I have solved that by removing one memory stick. Since then I did not have a BSOD while gaming or at all, until yesterday.
I am interested to know if this minidump file I attached will tell you anything regarding what the problem may be, software or hardware.
My system:
Windows XP SP3 with the latest windows update hotfixes
X-Fi extremegamer with latest driver 2.18.0013
8800GTS 512 GPU with drivers 196.21 (older) no OC
Corsair 620HX PSU
Q6600 no OC
3 sticks x 1 GB OCZ RAM. I think 2 are as dual channel.
3 Hard Drives
ASUS P5E MB with initial BIOS (I think it is '0107' Bios, date:12.10.07)
And another question, I have a 3gb pagefile located on the hard drive which I store data on, since I did not want it to set it on the OS drive.
But I also created another very small pagefile on the OS drive, because I learned that a minidump file can only be created if I have a pagefile on the system drive.
Is this set up OK like this, or is it preferred otherwise?
Thanks.
