Everyday when I turn my computer on for the last three or four days Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit will try to start and fail. The computer will then restart (spontaneously during the windows load screen) and say windows was unable to start giving me two options:
1. system repair.
2. start windows normally.
After I do system repair it will ask me if I want to do system restore and if I don't it will send me to a diagnostic/repair screen with multiple options:
Start up repair
System restore
System Image Recovery
Memory diagnostic test
cmd prompt
After i chose one of the top three it'll attempt to fix it (or system restore prior to this screen), it will blue screen. I think the blue screens says something about anti virus software disabling drivers diskcheck. It's all over the place. I wish I wrote down what it exactly says. Anyway.
I was able to do a memory diagnostic test and it said I had bad hardware. But I am pretty sure the ram stick in there is functional. So I moved the ram stick to different socket on the mobo (there's four) and I get the same windows unable to start thing. But windows 7 fixes whatever the start up problem was without the blue screen and everything runs fine for the day.
Next day same problem, same solution. I have gone through all four of my ram sockets and now am back to socket one which oddly enough worked again despite my fears of the impending doom that I was running out of fresh ram sockets.
What is going on? Is it a hard drive issue given windows 7 is having problems starting? Is there something with the motherboard?
Help!
