3 times I’ve had to reinstall Windows now! Using Win 7 64 bit. Within ten minutes of installing the new drivers, my pc crashes and is rendered irreparable by Windows own repair tools. Every time, it s happened within 10 minutes of installing NI drivers. Each time I reinstall Windows I can install all Windows updates, other software like Windows Live Mail, Google Chrome, Novation drivers etc without any issues.
It’s the only thing I can narrow it down to. I did all updates and my computer was fine for 48 hours. Installed drivers and about 6 minutes later it crashed.
Run memory test and chkdsk and bother say no faults with RAM or HDD. Also, I opened it all and removed all parts apart from CPU, graphics card, 1GB RAM and a single SATA hard drive and tried it again tonight. Straight after I installed the A2DJ drivers, it all crashed on me again!
It’s not actually. This is occuring on my custom built PC not my laptop. Has an Asus motherboard, Q6600 Core2Quad CPU, 12GB of Crucial Ballistix RAM (which I’ve now tested in another machine), Samsung F1 hard drives and an ATi 5770 1GB Graphics Card, so all are fairly high spec and quality items.
