Hello,
I just recently built my first computer (see sig). And Randomly on reboot, just before windows starts loading I get a blue-screen, then it will restart, then it will reboot just fine and then never happen for awhile. I have the newest nVidia drivers and updated to SP1, and it didn't help. I am guessing it is a compatibility problem with x64 Vista (which is odd, because everything is supposedly Vista compatible).

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Any suggestions?

1. This is the hardware section. Did you read the forum title before posting?
2. Did you Google this issue before posting and attempted to solve your own problem.
3. If you want an answer you have to be specific. Not just "I've got Vista on a computer it doesn't work... help... thanks guys."

Here's a few hints: Post the driver you at attempted to use. Post any information off the error screen. Post any changes you made to the system (soft & hard) before and after you installed the drivers that may be causing the issue. Things like BIOS settings, jumpers, OCing... etc.
