Go to device manager,disable your sound device,uninstall it and then reinstall.Check if this fixes the problem
well i did that and it still happens. it tends to happen when im watching a movie or playing a game. i will upload a picture of the error in a minute.
EDIT: ok i attached the error.
its coming from svhost.exe and the blacked out part is just my pc's username.
Check http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/defau...virus_k=100277 just in case.
nope its not that.Quote:

well if that's the case see if you can grab a good version of svchost.exe off of another computer ( with the same os obv) and copy it using a boot disk
well how exactly would i do that? just burn it to any cd and boot to the cd?Quote:

well the crashing has stopped now.
just wondering, could something overheating cause this problem?
well what did you do to fix it ? if nothing then its a posibility but seems unlikely
