This started at 12:30am today: I installed aim, then opened the program, left it open for a bit while using chrome. I then opened aim and logged it, it opened some windows, then my comp froze. Nothing could unfreeze it, I had to reboot.
Long story short: I went into safe mode multiple times, and my comp works, I deleted a bunch of files that were used recently before the crash, my computer still freezes. I used the event log and deleted a bunch of files. I can't uninstall programs from safe mode for some reason. Everytime I start normally, the login screen is fine. I left it there for 20 mins, it didn't freeze.
About 30 seconds after I login, the computer freezes. Any ideas on how to fix it? Comp specs: WIndows 7 64x i7 1.6ghz 4gb DDR3 Nvidia Geforce gts 360m (1gb gddr5) 150gb HDD avaiable. Np, also if that doesn't work, you might have to do a system restore and restore your computer to the most recent restore point (possibly one automatically created for you when you installed AIM). You can do this in Windows 7 by just typing 'System Restore' into the search box of the start menu.Note.
You must have System Restore on for this to work (It was probably on by default). On a side note, I think there is a way in Windows 7 to login as the administrator in safe mode, I just don't remember how. I kinda didn't turn on sys restore. Stupid me Almost done cleaning out everything I possibly can. If it still doesn't work, ill prolly have to reinstall my os. 'The maximum file size for session 'ReadyBoot' has been reached. As a result, events might be lost (not logged) to file 'C: Windows Prefetch ReadyBoot ReadyBoot.etl'.

Similarly, system restore only messes with windows settings and drivers. Malicious programs that got on your computer before the restore will remain after the restore. Slave the drive to another computer and do a scan with Kaspersky (download the 30-day trial for Kaspersky internet security).
Tell us what happens then.Scanning with microsoft security essentials. It's 90% done. Been going for an hour now. Found 9 errors.
Few trojans, and security exploits. 1) That is dead wrong. Safe Mode loads only what it needs to in order to actually run Windows. Very few malicious programs will actually run in Safe Mode. I've found maybe 3 that would. 2) Yes, malicious programs that were already on there before the restore will remain on the computer. Hence why you turn it off when you are disinfecting a computer (malicious programs can recreate themselves from a restore).
System Restore will also remove programs there were installed after the restore point, not just drivers and settings. It will not, however, mess with your personal files in any way (i.e. If you delete a document, you cannot get it back by using System Restore). 5 Free edition Kaspersky, and you don't have to mess with a trial that is going to expire. On a side note though, MalwareByte's Anti-malware is about the best program I have found to actually remove virus' from a computer that has been infected, as most AV programs do a better job at prevention and removal (i.e. Avast, AVG, etc).
I do this type of stuff on a daily basis ftr. Best free AV imo is Avast when it comes to PREVENTION, but when it comes to REMOVAL, the free version of MalwareBytes is my favorite.
As for non-free, McAfee is SUPPOSEDLY the best, but more of a business oriented program. If you were looking for a non-free AV to use at home I would still probably say Avast (although, there is no need for anything but the free version), and still MalwareByte's paid version is pretty sweet too, it has a few extra features that you can't do in the free version, although I don't remember what they are. I use MB all the time at work to get rid of malicious stuff, and Avast on my Windows partition at home. Another thing you can do to prevent getting virus' is to get the browser add-on called WOT (stands for Web of Trust), which is a free add-on for just about every browser (I use it on Firefox and Chrome mostly, but it is available for Safari, IE, and I think Opera as well). As for installing/uninstalling things in safe mode. Lemme know if this stuff helps.
So everything works, but now I can't uninstall this one program: wd smartware. All the files and regestry files are gone, but it's still on my program list. When I try to uninstall it, it give me: 'There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor.' When I try installing, it gives me: 'The application has encountered an unexpected error and is now exiting.'
Edit: I was transferring some files from my old account to my new, and the new one froze also. I tried the original one, thinking maybe I moved the problem to the new account, but it was on both accounts. I deleted both of them (all all my game save data D: ) and made a third account.
Hasn't froze yet. Hopefully it won't again. Still have the problem above. Post has been edited 1 time(s), last time on Aug 18 2010, 10:19 pm by fatflyingpigs.
I actually did have this problem way back when I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1. No problems going from 8.1 to 10, as they have the same memory management and access methods. Windows 7 accesses memory differently than Windows 8.1 and 10. Ran for 2 years with Windows 7 without a problem on my 2x8GB RAM. Installed 8.1, and started getting BSOD on boot. I later learned that some of my files that I copied from one storage drive to another as a backup copy were corrupted.
Not all, but a few. I only discovered that by running a byte compare program as I was searching for issues and solutions. Memtest ran for 48 hours without a single error on either module singularly or in any configuration. However, be advised that Memtest does not find every type of memory error. If it does find an error, be assured you have a faulty module, but be advised, it tests them one at a time, so when you have a problem that only appears with both modules, it may not find it. Windows Memory Diagnostics, however, did find problems with the RAM.
What Is Readyboot
You'll find that memory modules need to be properly paired, and sometimes places that build computers for you are not as diligent as they should be on making sure of that, and they may install modules that won't necessarily be meant for each other. Just because they were installed together by the builder doesn't mean the manufacturer of the RAM certified those two modules to actually be used together. They may have taken 2 singles to put in your machine because they were out of 'pairs' that day. Windows 10 will sometimes place the data 'interleaved' between the 2 modules to speed up loading, whereas Windows 7 didn't really do that so much.
Windows 10 comes with it's own memory diagnostic that you need to run. Start Cortana and do a search for Windows Memory Diagnostic. It's a Desktop App, and you'll have to do a restart to run it, as it, like Memtest, needs to run while the OS is shut down. Run it with both sticks installed. Let us know the results of that test, please. FYI, I called Corsair, gave them the results of the test, and they sent me new memory right away (both sticks) and sent me a shipping label to return the old sticks after receiving the new.
Didn't cost me a dime with their lifetime warranty. That's the fun of problems with the power supply, it can manifest in whatever way possible. An extra module would bring in extra load(although not much), and if the connector cannot give enough voltage then that could give problems.
If possible, you could try different memory modules or a different power supply, see if that solves the issueI don't actually have access to either right now, and I'm loathed to make a speculative purchase that might not solve the problem. Given that this ONLY happens on boot, I really doubt that ti is a PSU. I previously set the RAM voltage to Automatic, wouldn't this mean that the motherboard would clock down the RAM and it would just run slowly? Also, I'm getting perfect performance while gaming, and while doing intensive activity in Windows. It's a 750W PSU which I brought with future expansion in mind, I should be able to run two gaming graphics cards off of it and run them at 4K.
It shouldn't break a sweat with my current setup. If it was broken badly enough that its output dropped below my needs with my current setup then it would probably make my PC unstable all the time. There is also the whole business with it only BSOD after a clean shutdown.
If it were the PSU wouldn't it fall over after a dirty shutdown own as well, or while gaming? No errors with the Windows Memory Diagnostic, but I am getting the following error in the Event Manager The maximum file size for session 'ReadyBoot' has been reached.
As a result, events might be lost (not logged) to file 'C: Windows Prefetch ReadyBoot ReadyBoot.etl'. The maximum files size is currently set to 134217728 bytes.That ReadyBoot error may be your problem. No guarantees. ReadyBoot.etl is a log that tracks all file activity at boot time.
Since all file activities done at boot time (even system updates and spyware scans) accumulate in this file, it may fill with obsolete information. The fix is to set the ReadyBoot.etl into Circular logging mode, so that only the most recent file access activity is tracked. Right click start, then click control panel b.

There have been reports of BSOD that have been traced back to this file, but it does not mean it is your issue specifically. This is certainly an easier fix than buying a new computer, and won't hurt anything whatsoever. Let us know how it works out. While a faulty PSU could cause your issue I would expect other issues as appear as well. What could be the most likely culprit other than the BIOS is a faulty DIMM Module. Determine which of the two causes the BSOD and replace, if after that the system runs as normal then you have found the cause, if not and the SSD Driver and other issues have been ruled out then I would suggest a faulty Mobo. I know this system is likely to be new but this does not mean an issue wouldn't present itself either way.
Hopefully you have it resolved soon. After reading more of your previous posts where you state that you had been doing something internally, it is possible you may cause the issue with a static charge this is turn could cause the issue to affect one of the two DIMM Modules, although you may have been careful and deem this unlikely, it is plausible, especially if you don't take measurements to avoid this such as antistatic bands.

The reference to ReadyBoost is a driver/configuration issue and has plagued manyI didn't start having the problem until I upgraded to Windows 10. Which was before I started opening the case and touching the components. So I don't think that static damage is a likely cause. It's also not my Anti-Virus as when I did the clean install I had a BSOD before I reinstalled it. The SSD isn't a likely cause as that was installed after the problem.
Could it be a setting on my motherboard, most things are currently set to Automatic. Are the two RAM sticks the same make and model? If one stick is faster than the other then you should expect blue screens under load. If they are the same, download the IntelBurnTest utility and run it on each stick to see if you are in fact stable.
Also look for bulging capacitors on the motherboard. I've seen start up issues like this remedied by updating the firmware on the SSD. Trying a different power supply is a good idea.The RAM sticks came with the machine, they are the same make and model, and they both ran OK under Windows 7. I only have the problem is both are installed (Regardless of which sockets they are in). I was under the impression that modern motherboards were designed to cope with different models of RAM.
Most of the companies state that if you put a fast and a slow stick in together then the fast stick will be clocked down to match the slow one and your system will remain stable. I'll look into the software that you suggested. I have Windows 10 across most of my devices now, including my phone. I've gotten used to having everything syncing.
Going back to Windows 7 would mean that I'd need to maintain 2 diaries because the calendar software that I use doesn't sync between Windows 7 and Windows 10. Neither does my address book. Beside, it would be like quitting, and I don't want my friends with Macs to get all snooty about how much better Apple is because they can do all of the things that I want to do across my devices.
Let's call this one a matter of pride. I'd also have to reinstall everything again on Windows 7, which would be a huge pain. I had a different error message this today. IRQLNOTLESSOREQUAL The log files are useless as usual.
Readyboot Stopped
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly. I'm also getting 'Crash dump initialization failed!' And 'Audit events have been dropped by the transport. 0' The main change that I made was I took the RAM out to clean the slots again and when I put them back I put them in adjacent slots, rather than the matching slots to check again if it was a slot causing the problem.
Why don't you just answer the Damn question?, I am wandering around my system as well trying to figure out WHY I am losing over%90 of my Hard disk speed short of MS trying to get me into an SSD drive there must be a way to fix it PROPER. I was coping files and saw that the Hard disk WAS thrashing in a 'readyboot' directory with 20+ files open doing basically NOTHING short of delaying the copy process. I would LIKE to Know how to turn it off also!, I DON'T Need to cache a bootstrap on win 7, and I most certianly don't need the copy process to RAM no less to be double-Ramming disk reads/writes without my permission. I see a dozen replies for Win 7 Issues in all the forums I visit. But No one ANSWERS the questions, don't 'Suggest' a software package to fix something, or the old Boot into SAFE mode and see if it happens, GUESS WHAT it does!!
So DOES Anyone HAVE a way to turn this 'readyboot' off!!!, Lets just say I want to do it for shits & giggles soas no to offend the 'Big Brother' Microsofts planning mechanism. Much research. Many suggestions. None worked. So I took the direct approach: (Admin acct needed) using notepad, create a file in Windows Prefetch ReadyBoot Hello World saved as ReadyBoot.txt delete everything in subdir ReadyBoot except Trace1.fx change properties of Trace1.fx to Read Only rename ReadyBoot.txt ReadyBoot.etl change properties of ReadyBoot.etl to Read Only not sure if the Trace1.fx is necessary for this to work; did it that way, it works, left it alone. Apparently the fake ReadyBoot.etl causes the process to fail and it aborts.
No ill effects noticed - Resource Monitor shows the disk is no longer 100% saturated with the ReadyBoot process anymore - boot up times significantly reduced. And, easy to undo if that strikes your fancy later. Similar help and support threads Thread Forum I notice with resource monitor that readyboot.etl is often being written to, sometimes causing a lot of disk thrashing - and not just when my PC is idle.
How can I disable it? I've searched and searched and can't find an answer to this seemingly simple question.
I'll live with a slightly longer. General Discussion I have a Windows7 64bit system. All Windows and other software is current. Hard drive has been cleaned and defragged. Ckdisk runs clean. Several different Av and malware scans have been run and are clean. Startup programs are at a minimum.

The maximum files size is currently set to 20971520 bytes. Solution 1: found on MS Social from user voxmuta is as follows: Quote: Hey guys, the solution is simple - just increase the max file size! Go to: HKEYLOCALMACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control WMI Autologger ReadyBoot The MaxFileSize key is a DWORD with a default decimal value of 20. Increase this to, say 60, and the problem will go away. Solution 2: From AbsoluteJoe on Just2good Quote: Kernel-Event Tracing: The maximum file size for session 'ReadyBoot' has been reached. As a result, events might be lost (not logged) to file 'C: Windows Prefetch ReadyBoot ReadyBoot.etl'.
The maximum files size is currently set to 20971520 bytes. The problem is is that the ReadyBoot.etl log that tracks all file activity at boot time fills up and is not bring reset or cleared. This log file provides information to optimize boot time file placement for disk anaylsis and defragmention. Since all file activity at done at boot time (even system updates, AV or spyware scans) accumulates in this file, it may fill with obsolete information.
The fix is to set the ReadyBoot.etl into Circular logging mode, so that only the most recent file access activity is tracked. How to fix in Vista or Windows 7 using an Administrator account: Open the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Performance Monitor Expand left side tree entry for Data Collection Sets Highlight Startup Event Trace Sessions Open the ReadyBoot line (click on it) Select the File tab (click on it) Select the Circular option (check on the check box) Click on Apply and OK Reboot the system After the reboot, the ' Windows Prefetch ReadyBoot ReadyBoot.etl' should be reset and should only contain file access information from the last boot. You may have to wait a few minutes after boot for the data to be updated and the ReadyBoot.etl file buffers flushed. Any disk defragmenter that is ReadyBoot.etl aware will use this data to place the files accessed at boot time together to increase bootup performance. Quote: After some additional defrag testing, my post about ReadyBoot.etl needs clarification. If you set the logging mode to Circular, the newest file access events will overwrite the oldest.
While this makes the log full error disappear, it also results in only the last events being present in the log (about 40K entries for a 20 meg log). If a defrag program uses the circularly logged ReadyBoot.etl to relocate files, it will place only the last accessed files, rather than the files accessed since boot, in the preferred location. If the Circular attribute is NOT set (the default), then the kernel file accessed since boot until the ReadyBoot.etl log fills will be logged.
Defragmentation will move the files accessed since boot to in the preferred location. On my system a 2 to 3 meg ReadyBoot.etl is big enough to hold all boot time file access events. If you want the defrag utility order files by boot access sequence, then you'll have to live with the ReadyBoot.etl full message in the event log until Microsoft decides to provide a way to suppress it. Note that the defragmentation file activity may also be tracked by the kernel, so re-running the defrag one or more times without a reboot may produce some unexpected or unusual file placement results.
