restart χωρίς λόγο???

[panais WIB]

Παιδιά υπάρχει πρόβλημα με το PC ενός φίλου. Χωρίς κάποια αλλαγή σε software ή hardware (μάλλον), ξαφνικά λίγο μετά την εκκίνηση (1-2 λεπτά) το PC σβήνει και ξανανάβει (restart). Μάλιστα στο error report αναφέρει σαν πρόβλημα τα αρχεία Mini031105-01.dmp και sysdata.xml. Το πρώτο βρίσκεται στο folder Minidump των Windows,ενώ το δεύτερο ακόμα το ψάχνουμε!! Τι είναι το Minidump??? Τι μπορεί να παίζει? To restart γίνεται πάντα λίγο μετά το ξεκίνημα, ΑΝΕΞΆΡΤΗΤΑ του τι κάνει ο χρήστης. Help please...

Εγώ πιστεύω πως πρέπει να αλάξει Windows, κάποια άλλη copy είναι σφάλμα συστήματος... μήπως του βγάζει και μπλέ οθώνη?

Problem: Another reader complains about a system that reboots unexpectedly at random times and then presents an error message when WinXP starts again.

Error Message: "The system has recovered from a serious error. C:\Windows\Minidump020404-01.dmp C:\Docume~1\Darle~1\Locals~1\Temp\Wer5E.tmp.diroo\sysdata.xml"

Solution: This error message reveals a problem with a memory dump (an inventory of the contents of computer memory; sometimes referred to as a minidump). It seems the OS created a memory dump file but forgot about it, so it's attempting to create the file again. The resulting conflict leads to a serious error and the sudden system meltdown.

The minidump error is sometimes associated with an outdated video driver (a program that facilitates communication between a hardware component and the rest of the system), so one potential solution is to download a driver update for the video card. The reader can get one by visiting the Support or Downloads area of the card manufacturer's Web site. An updated driver may take care of the problem, but regardless of whether it does, we also recommend downloading the WinXP patch that Microsoft released to combat memory dump problems. The reader can get the update by visiting http://www.microsoft.com

/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=3D41A046-0E2C-429F-8F40-F30014ADC3BB and clicking Download in the upper-right section of the page. Next, he should access the Windows Update site and install WinXP SP1a from the list of critical updates.

Just for good measure, the reader should take a moment to purge his system of the minidump and Sysdata.xml files by deleting them from the C:/DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS and C:/WINDOWS folders, respectively. He can restart the computer when the files are gone.

Are you using Microsoft Internet Explorer? If so, right-click the icon, choose "properties," delete your temporary internet files and cookies, and let us know if that handles the problem. Then click settings and delete suspicious ActiveX controls.

XML is a replacement language for HTML and Internet Explorer doesn't parse it as well as some other browsers. You should be able to open the sysdata.xml file with another browser or your word processor (follow the path indicated to locate it) and see if it gives any clues.

I would strongly advise you to add more RAM to your machine, as you will likely face recurring problems trying to run applications under WindowsXP with so little memory.
