One posting hint:

By capitalizing the first letter in every word it is very annoying to read. Many people won't even bother.

If you use a more standard style you are more likely to get whatever help someone may have to offer.

Just an idea. A tip.

Sorry about that, do you have any ideas on whats wrong.

Try your game if you haven't already and see what happens.

Maybe the drive being on Cable Select was causing issues.

Its still crashing, I didnt try the game but i know its just going to get me mad.

Check your Event Viewer via Administrative Tools.

Open the System as well as Application tabs and look for red X errors that coincide with your problem. Details here:

Also if your blue screen is showing a memory dump do the following:



Go to start | search (type in) .dmp
Note the location of your .dmp files.
If no .dmp files check for minidump.
Remember this location and the path that leads to it.

Then:

1) Download and install the

Debugging Tools from Microsoft

All you need do is download and install this. Make no attempt to start or run it.

2) Download and install this

debugwiz

This is a DOS based batch file that will command the above Microsoft Tools.

3) Open the Wiz & Browse to, or paste in the path to, your .dmp file.

4) After the Wiz creates a Text document attach it back to this thread.

I had an error in service control manager on Thursday.

I will look at that later tonight. Have a few other posts going at the moment.

I think I know what that error was .I was trying an old hard drive I had lying around, but it wasn't formatted with this motherboard.Not 100% sure though.
