Update your graphics card drivers.

 

i had formatted my harddisk. Change my graphic card. still back to same problem. I don't have any program. windowsxp updated only. still had this problem. Pls help

 

It sounds like a hardware driver conflict occuring at shut down. In order to define it better, disable the automatic restart on error feature.

To do that, right-click "My Computer" > Properties > Advanced > Startup & Recovery > Settings > untag the "Automatically Restart" box. OK out of there.

Then instead of restarting you should get the blue screen when the error occurs that will give some information as to what is causing the problem.

 

the blue screen said:
stop: 0x000000c5 c0x00000000 0x00000002 0x00000001 0x8053676D

Beginning dump of phsical memory
physical memory dump complete

 

If it is as you say, no programs installed and no peripherals hooked up, and you still get the error - it is obviously something to do with the MOBO. I would strongly suspect bad RAM as the culprit even though the error you mention points to a driver problem. The driver problem isn't well defined as to whether it's hardware or software related, at least as far as I can tell.

You can substitute known good RAM or if you have multiple sticks, pull each and try the other, etc. - that might pinpoint the problem.

Otherwise, you could try another hard drive if you have one laying around. This type of problem can be hard to narrow down since it's intermittent. It may be heat related so clean all the dust out and check the fans. Reseat all connectors and cards.

Good luck.

 

hi,

my problem still not solve. I had change harddisk. Change video card. This problem happening that my power supply is not working and i had change new power supply.

I also found that: 2 pair of memory RDRAM, 1 pair is spoilt.
Would it be, my another 1 pair of RDRam which i still using, could be giving problem? How to check is it my memory got problem?

Or had 3rd party program to check?

OR could be Mainboard got problem. due to power supply blow out some of the part.

OR.. your succession.

thank alot
