Re: win vista freezes!
Its God's way of keeping yet another victim off failbook. I'd start the typical culprit checkdown....flash, drivers, and malware.<--- Badcaps.net Founder

Re: win vista freezes!
The laptop possibly has laptop-HDD disease. Laptop-HDD disease is a condition where for no apparent reason, the HDD causes Windows to be slow like it's a 286 or a 486 and/or corruption and it goes away, at least temporarily after wiping the HDD.
Or when it's crawling for no apparent reason, on a Toshiba laptop I fixed, recovering Windows was slow like running XP on a 486 at 25 Mhz!Last edited by RJARRRPCGP; 03-16-2014, 05:27 PM.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: win vista freezes!
Flash. Perhaps there's something in their horrendous bloated code causing this....which is why flash was the first on the list. Both those sites abuse & exploit flash as if it were the holy grail or something. I've seen flash cause crazy instabilities on various websites over the years. Does it make any difference if you use another browser><--- Badcaps.net Founder

Re: win vista freezes!
Rjar: Ha I just replaced my hdd with an ssd in my laptop that had those exact symptoms. I think it has to do with ntfs and a hdd that's going bad.
What tends to be the cause?Comment

Re: win vista freezes!
I'd be inclined to blame flash too, if you're using Firefox try disabling the plugin and see if that helps.Comment

Re: win vista freezes!

this happened only after i installed Firefox then i removed firefox and installed
chrome it does the same,it did not do it with IE,i wanted to get rid of addons and IE was not doing it dispite of the addblock installed.Comment

Re: win vista freezes!
Imagine that somebody at winhistory.de did that,except the CPU was a Socket 3 (I think)Pentium Overdrive(simple 486 CPUs cannot run XP because they lack a certain requirement that Pentium 1 and newer CPUs have) and they underclocked it to 25-20MHz and even lower,all of this running XP.Main rig:
Gigabyte B75M-D3H
Core i5-3470 3.60GHz
Gigabyte Geforce GTX650 1GB GDDR5
16GB DDR3-1600
Samsung SH-224AB DVD-RW
FSP Bluestorm II 500W (recapped)
120GB ADATA + 2x Seagate Barracuda ES.2 ST31000340NS 1TB

Re: win vista freezes!
That makes sense. And I also assumed that the installer needs to be hacked to install with a processor frequency less than 233 Mhz or it will refuse to continue the installation.
I thought that it was with a 486, with probably a hacked installer.
According to Microsoft, even ME had a minimum core frequency requirement almost as high, at 150 Mhz and halts if the processor frequency is less than 150 Mhz with an error message saying that the core frequency must be at least 150 Mhz.
I would have definitely expected XP to have a minimum processor core frequency requirement, because ME did, at least according to Microsoft.Last edited by RJARRRPCGP; 03-17-2014, 01:53 PM.ASRock B550 PG Velocita

Re: win vista freezes!
Thats the slowest system I ever put XP on. A dual 233MMX in a Tyan Tomcat AT motherboard (dual socket 7) with 512mb of EDO RAM, on a Adaptec 2940U2W with a 9.1GB cheetah, with an old 8mb Matrox Millennium graphics card and an old AWE64. It ran surprisingly well. Windows 2000 roared on this old relic back in the day. I wish I had that system back.<--- Badcaps.net Founder

Hello! I am having a problem with the forum in general, not a specific device repair. I am sorry if this is not the correct place to post about this!
My problem is quite simple: I got an e-mail that someone replied to one thread which I follow, but when I click the link to go to it, I get a message which says "To download from Badcaps you must register and verify your email address. Upon registration it may take a few minutes for the verification email to arrive. If you do not see it please check your spam folder. For assistance contact support@badcaps.net".

I'm using Xiaomi Router 4A gigabit edition as wireless repeater. It worked fine for 2 years or so, but last week, wireless started to disappear.
When I unplug/replug the power, it was working fine for a day/half a day or so until it freezes again.
After testing with different power supply adapters and concluding it wasn't the issue I finally opened the case and this was the situation:
Anyway I proceed to clean up the mess and replace all caps but unfortunately it made the situation worse. Now router can't even boot, either it freezes during... -
Hi I have Dell 7520 which has i7-3632QM as well as AMD 7730M Discrete Switchable GPU.
This is BACO Switchable meaning the AMD GPU can only "render" and cannot work as alone as it depends on iGPU for output.
Attached is the datasheet for LA-8241P which shares common with Inspiron 5520 and Vostro 3560. Link to Schematics: https://cdn.badcaps-static.com/pdfs/...a856347d78.pdf
The laptop has worked flawlessly for last 9 years, with CPU temps never exceeding 90*C and GPU barely reaching 80*C on gaming/full load.

Hi, trademil Horizon freeze after start like video, i try reset (3sek push stop), remove and I put new ones capaticors 3,3V line digital and analog line.
The device in service mode passes all tests, except for the display test, where it hangs. The display in service mode during engine testing, etc. seems to behave correctly, it shows values, the engine is working, I can adjust its speed but only in service mode, in normal operation after pressing start the machine freezes
All the multiplexers that support the display seem to be working. It's like the processor...
