Moderators rridgely Posted October 30, 2005 Moderators Share Posted October 30, 2005 It was probably nothing. If it happens again then start to worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inu-Ya Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 i was away and it was doing nothing <{POST_SNAPBACK}> last question: Do you have it set to where your system goes on standby or.. any of that nature? if so, I've known it to do this. I once tapped my mouse and my system was on standby. the screen was blue and saying something on memory crash. if this does happen again worry and come back as others said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators rridgely Posted October 30, 2005 Moderators Share Posted October 30, 2005 Oli have you seen this article: http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php Sounds like a freak error to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 30, 2005 Moderators Share Posted October 30, 2005 Stop error's can be the cause of buggy hardware drivers, or buggy software. If a program has some sort of conflict/problem in the memory it can also cause it, most programs that have a problem as such won't function correctly without a reboot -- however it's rare. Edit: Forget to mention if a program that's resident isn't fully compatible with your system as in the installed video drivers, etc., it can also cause annoying problems.
