MORE COMPUTER WOES...

So now this computer is having massive problems that I have no idea what's causing it. Dunno if any of ya'll can help out with figuring what's wrong (I'm not tech-savvy in this regards so...), but this is everything that I've gathered so far on the issues:


1) After booting up the computer, after a few minutes, the system will hang and nothing will respond. Using Cntrl + Alt + Del will result in the screen going black. Mouse is still movable at this time. After a while, computer bluescreens with either "Kernel_InPage_Data_Error" or with a message saying a vital thread or process stopped working.

2) When booting up, sometimes it will boot up the secondary harddrive instead of the primary one.

3) When booting up, sometimes it will be a black screen with the message "Disk read error. Press Cntrl + Alt + Del to restart"

4) A new development I noticed is happening. A few days ago, when I was shutting down the computer, it was on the "Shutting down windows" screen for a good few solid minutes, but refused to actually shut down. I had to turn it off via the tower. Last night, when I shut the computer down, the monitor and power were off, but the computer was still going (I could hear the sounds it makes when on still going, and inside I could still see the blue lights going too). I could not turn the computer back on with the power button nor shut it down, and was forced to unplug the power cord from the breaker to turn it off.

5) A new development I see right now in the Event Viewer is there's a new error I've never seen before called "Disk", which happened around the time the computer was shut down last night. The error reads "The driver detected a controller error on \Device\Harddisk2\DR2.". I have no idea what this means, but I know this isn't good at all...



So that's everything. Computer still refuses to generate any minidump files for some reason when it crashes despite me setting to do so...yeah. This computer uses Windows 7, has one 2 GB RAM (had to remove the other one due to it being faulty and never got to replace it yet), and a 111 GB HDD (yeah, the HDD is super old and needs replaced). Dunno what other data may be needed in order to figure out what's really wrong or what to do >_<
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Yeah, it sounds like you're describing a paperweight.
