Windows isn't wanting to start up
« on: April 29, 2012, 04:21:47 PM »
Every time I go on my PC it has a error screen saying "Windows has encountered a problem" and says to report it and it says it doesn't report it. I try to reboot windows and it does the same. I got a few new parts but made sure it was installed correctly and getting frustrated with it. Does anyone know or have a clue whats going on?

Looks like it's time to reinstall, sometimes it's the only way.  Do you still have the disk for Windows?

Guess it's a hardware problem then.  If you're not tech-savvy with hardware, I'd suggest getting it professionally checked out.  Don't get ripped off for it, watch your prices, though I'm sure you already know this. :)

Best Buy is a ripoff, anywhere is probably better than them.  I recommend Comp USA if you're in the Florida area.  Their PC Diagnosis is $59.99.

If you plan to get a new PC. I would recommend finding a website where you can build your own custom PC to your own wishes and they will get all the parts, assemble it together and send it.

I thought you were Dutch, am I right? In that case, I really recommend you this website, as I got my PC from there as well:

Check out my Youtube channel with all kinds of cool videos including LP's which I'm currently working at. Don't forget to give feedback as well. ;)

If all else fails, I suggest having a huge restart with everything cleaned out.
