Acer 1410-2285 Unexpected Error and restart

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I have a Acer 1410-2285 with the dual core U2300 processor running Windows 7 (64 Bit). I am having a what seems to be an excessive number of blue screen error shutdowns/restarts (2-3 per day). This seems to happen the most often when the notebook is asleep and I wake the machine up to the "Windows did not shutdown properly message" but occasionally I do see the BSOD when I am using the machine.

The only modification I have made to to the notebook was to install 4GB of PC6400 ram. I updated the drivers with what Acer has posted on their website, but i have not tried to install the non-Acer drivers.

Has anyone else had this problem? I can return/exchange the machine no questions asked for another 10 days, but I thought i would ask here first in case it was a known issue with a known fix.

If you need additional information please let me know what. This is my first post so not entirely sure what to include to help you.

What happens if you just run stock memory of PC2-5300 module?

Not sure. I did not leave the stock ram in that long after purchase. I believe it happened with the stock PC5300 1GB sticks, but not enough run time to make a frequency comparison.

btw using avast for AV meant to add that in my first post.

I would take a look at the hard drive controller properties (IDE, AHCI ..) and in the BIOS settings - set it to default values and see.

I doubt that you have a virus, but still inclined towards running the stock ram module for a while also.

cheers ...
