Well recently my computer has had several errors in the past month or two.
To begin with, I first started experiencing constant hangings in Mozilla Firefox (my primary web-browser). I first thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime mistake, so I simply rebooted and it didn't hang anymore.
However; even though Mozilla continued to function, it would hang after a short while. I'd assume around 1 hour of usage.
By this time, I started experiencing hangings everywhere, in a client where I play RuneScape (Don't flame), AIM, MSN, etc. Sometimes, after I just finished rebooting, all the programs would just hang immediately after I started it.
After these problems started progressing, an error would always pop up whenever I restarted my computer. This error was a RUNDLL error, and the message says:
"An exception occured while trying to run "C:\WINDOWS\system32\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup"".
There was no way I was able to fix this, so I would just click ok and move on. My computer started to run slower, for example, I used to be able to load Windows almost immediately after every reboot. Now, it takes a minute or two for Windows to start up.
As if things couldn't get any worse, whenever I restart my computer, it would say Disk Boot Failure and wouldn't let me proceed. This error happens on and off for some odd reason, meaning that when I restart my computer yet AGAIN it wouldn't show up. But after I restart again, it would most likely show up.
The last and final error I receive, is a blue screen of death. The blue screen of death happens occassionally, at extremely random times. And by random, I really mean random, it would sometimes just blue screen of death even while I was reading a forum. The Blue screen of death goes away too quickly for me to jot down the error message, so I'm unable to put that down here.
Here are some relevant notes pertaining to these errors:
- Sometimes, before a blue screen of death, my computer would just stop making noise (noise as in the sound the computer fan makes when operating) and my whole computer would freeze. Then afterwards the blue screen of death comes up.
- Sometimes, when Mozilla hangs and closes down, I would try and open it again but immediately after I do it would just hang again.
- At a certain point, before Windows loaded, my computer did an automatic hard-drive scan. I proceeded with this scan but it did nothing.
- I cleaned out all the spyware I could with Spybot Search & Destroy, along with all the ad-ware I could with Ad-Aware Personal SE. I scanned my computer with both Kaspersky Personal AND Norton Anti-Virus; however, nothing was detected.
- Sometimes, a message would pop up saying "Windows has just recovered from a serious error" or something like that.
That's pretty much it. Hopefully, all this information will give you technical experts an idea of what my problem is and hopefully give me a solution. Thanks.
