Every so often and i am not to sure when (it seems to be very random) the computer will crash and restart. Having made the computer stop restarting when it crashes i got the blue screen moaning about the following....
Driver IRQL not less or equal...... i also get something about the afd.sys file.
As well as this message i have had the following on a blue screen after a crash......
Page fault in none page area. The stop code is 0x00000050.
Hope this is enough information. Please help, its becoming very anoying.
