So... I'm good with computers (good enough to set them up and get around for the most part), but this one is a bit over my head, and I really need some help with it. Now I'm new to this forum, and I came here primarily for help with this problem so if I accidentally put this in the wrong category, I'm sorry in advanced.
First of all, I should probably list what my computer is, and what it's specs are. This PC that I got is a custom build from Anitec that I have had now for give or take 2 years. The specs are as follows:
Asus M2N-4 SLI Motherbord
2GB (2x 1GB) OCZ DDR3 PC3-8500 Special Ops Edition
AMD Athalon 64 x2 6000+
OCZ 8800 GTX
I was playing Condemned one night when all of the sudden the game freezes, and then the computer crashes. So I reboot the thing, and I get this:
[size=12pt]Here is my computer starting up[/size]
[size=12pt]Here is my computer loading the Operating System[/size]
[size=12pt]Here is my computer absolutely loaded... really nice to look at, eh?[/size]
Now, I can run this rig without all these troubles in safemode (if I couldn't, I wouldn't be writing this) but when trying to run normal windows xp, it does nothing at all but those bright, shiny colors. To try and solve this problem, I have done the following:
- Updated all of my drivers
- Updated my Motherboard BIOS
- Reinstalled windows XP
- Checked for virus's
- Checked my all of my computer components to see if nothing is wrong (Grounding myself from static electricity by holding a fork btw)
Now, if I'm asking if anyone knows what problem my computer is having (I bet that it's a hardware problem) and how to fix it (whether it be doing something to the system settings or buying a new part).
Thank you very much to anyone in advanced who can help me with this problem.
