| | Can SP1 destroy your hardware when without it works fine? Hello I installed Vista Ultimate 64bit FIN SP1 during thursday morning. After Installation I was able to login and use computer normally. Next day after I started use SP1 I was browsing forums with Firefox3Beta5 and then got Firefox made an error and bluescreen. After reboot I saw BIOS posting, and windows is starting up loading bar after that screen went totally black. Ok I was thinking Nvidia's drivers weren't working nice with SP1 so I unistalled them from safe-mode and reinstalled them after. Ok again same problem after reboot. Ok back to safe-mode and uninstalled drivers again (Forceware 169.25) and rebooted. With Vista native drivers I got back in windows but even with older nvidia drivers it didn't work. So I reinstalled whole Vista again to see does it help. Well after formatting completely hard disk and reinstalling Vista the same problem continues without SP1. So the question is. What did kill my graphic card? Systems specs: Asus P5E, Q6600, 4x2GB 800MHz DDR2 RAM, Asus TOP 8800GT, WD Cav. 500GB / 16MB, Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit FIN OEM. I bought this unit after new year. I took to my PC to reseller and they said they will take a look at it. Anyway I think I need to stop using Beta versions with Vista 64bit. They're really unstable. (39 BSOD's during these 4 months) |
