kenneth11zz Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 Hi,I have a thinkpad T23 for more than 3 years now. In the last 3 months, I have being experiencing random freezing when starting Windows XP every time. I tried reinstalling Windows XP couples time but I still experience the same. It also happens each time when I reinstall Windows XP. It hangs in the driver stage when reinstalling Windows XP. It works fine in safe mode. Also I tried installing windows 2000 and getting the same result.Therefore, I suspect that there is faulted hardware part. How does one systematically find out which hardware that is causing the freeze? What diagnosis tool to use to trace it? I would like to disable the driver for that faulted hardware. Because my warranty is over and its too expensive for service. Any help would really appreciated.-Kenneth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weazle Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 You can find a memtest at this link http://www.memtest86.com/Maybe check your eventviewer for strange messages.Further.. disable as much onboard devices(like sound, lan, ..) as possible in the bios en test it to see if you have the same problem.
