This system has recovered from a serious error

March 11th, 2012 - 06:40 am ET by Andrew Wilson | Report spam
Hello
Sometimes on cold boot up on a morning this Microsoft message is left on the
screen when I switch the monitor on. Probably a long shot but is there a way
of troubleshooting what the problem is and how to fix it?
Many thanks

Check the Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc).

Could be a hardware problem


run a RAM test

if RAM is OK run the mfg's hard drive diagnostic
