Hi,
I have recently had an issue with my windows 7 machine where it is not continuously blue screening after I turn the computer on, when I am loading the windows screen.

I have tried multiple times to perform a clean install of windows, removing all of the data off the hard drive and then installing the operating system again but the computer continues to blue screen, particularity after I install the Nvidia Graphics card Drivers (control panel and experience) but if i get the system running again a short while after I come across the system randomly attempt to perform a disk check on startup where it removes and recovers tons of files,

After Launching the system again just before I am greeted with the "welcome" screen I get a Blue screen that flashes on and off, After another reboot i am then asked to do a startup repair which then tells me that its attempting to fix disk errors on the system?

It doesn't sound right and personally I think that its a hard drive issue as it was working perfectly fine beforehand.

Any Ideas are much appreciated, I've had a look at a couple of other forums but none of them seemed to help :(

Thanks in advance

Hi,

after rebooting my computer just now i was able to log into the system just fine but i came across a few problems, firstly i was greeted with a message telling me that "dwm.exe is missing and could not be run" and i am also unable to access the internet

 


1. Could be drivers. Latest version is not always the best. But we can revisit that after #2.

2. This exhibits all the symptoms of a bad SATA cable. Before doing anything else replace the cable. SATA cables are cheap, you should always have a couple on hand.
 
the first version of windows 7 had various bugs that were fixed years ago. You have to install service pack 1 and the updates and reboot
before you install any current version of a graphics driver or your system will bugcheck.

The current graphics driver versions just do not attempt to work around the old fixed bugs anymore and require windows 7 SP1 installed or windows will bugcheck in old bad microsoft code.
