The Top 5 Reasons Why our Computers Crash


1.Viruses
This is one of the most reason computer crash whether you normal or professional computer user you must have faced viruses problems before, The first sign of a virus infection is instability, Some viruses delete the boot sector of a hard drive, making it impossible to boot.

Well it’s better to protect yourself in the first place a good antivirus should help you detect any viruses on your computer and prevent any other problem this virus may cause, the most important thing about any antivirus is that you must update it daily there are new viruse everyday, and antivirus without update worth nothing.
There are many free and paid antiviruse, so make sure you search and ask other people before you buy it.

2. Cheap Ram

Ram problems might bring on the blue screen of death (BSOD)with a message saying Fatal Exception Error. A fatal error indicates a serious hardware problem. Sometimes it may mean a part is damaged and will need replacing.

But a fatal error caused by cheap ram and if you bought brand computer like dell, hp, Toshiba probably you won’t have this problem but in case you bought everything and assemble it by yourself you should make sure that you buy good and brand ram don’t look for cheap ones.

3. BIOS settings

Every motherboard is supplied with a range of chipset settings that are decided in the factory. Once inside the BIOS, great care should be taken. Try to remember or write down all the settings that you have made. That way, if you change something and the computer becomes more unstable, you will know what settings to revert to.

4. Hard disk drives

After a few weeks, the information on a hard disk drive starts to become piecemeal or fragmented. It is a good idea to defragment the hard disk every week, to prevent the disk from causing a screen freeze.

Use windows Disk Defragmenter tool Evey week to keep the information in your hard disk in good condition, Also it’s a good idea to schedule the procedure for a period of inactivity using the Task Scheduler.

5. Software

A common cause of computer crash is faulty or badly-installed software. The System Registry can be corrupted by old references to obsolete software that you thought was uninstalled. Use Reg Cleaner  software  to clean up the System Registry and remove obsolete entries.

Read the instructions and use it carefully so you don’t do permanent damage to the Registry. If the Registry is damaged you will have to reinstall your operating system.

Often a Windows problem can be resolved by entering Safe Mode. and then you can restore windows to its latest status this should solve the problem

Learning the Windows Tricks necessary can be difficult however, which is why you need a good Computer Tips website to help you along the path.

    Load your computer into SAFE MODE(F8 or F6 during startup). Then check the event viewer to see what is causing the problem. The event viewer is a detailed tree that will allow you to view all files or applications that were accessed within a specified period. The two sections that you should pay special attention are Critical and Error

    1.Click Start
    2.Click Control Panel
    3. Click System and Maintenance
    4. Click Administrative Tools
    5. Double-Click Event Viewer.
    6. Under Windows logs, Click System tab
    7. Check for red errors icons and the exclamation icons.

    Hope this helps!
