Intel DH67VR Desktop Getting Freezed Continuously

ckarvnd Oct 6, 2011 12:38 AM

Hi I am Aravind,

I am facing a strange problem with my new system.It's based on Intel DH67VR.My system freezes during anyone of these events

1)Either during startup and immediately after launching a program

2)Freezes in between playing a video with strange sound

3)While opening browser and tying an URL

4)While navigating using a mouse

I have replaced the RAM module 4 times and tried two different brands and no relief.Also reformatted my system and loaded Windows xp professional SP3 with minimal applications,still unstable.

Given below are the details which I have extracted using Everest.Any suggestion to rectify the issue is highly appreciable

If further information need to be provided,please let me know

Hi,
Based on the tests done so far, I'd recommend the following:

1. Test with an officially, validated Operating System; see the following URL:

http://intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-008326.htm

2. If the problem continues, even with a supported Operating System, try the following:
2.1. Enter the BIOS.
2.2. Once in the BIOS setup utility, press <F9> to restore BIOS default settings.
2.3. Reset any customized BIOS settings. Clear all DMI event logs by setting the option to "Enable", which is located in the Advanced/Event Log Configuration section of the BIOS Setup utility.
2.4. Press <F10> to save the new settings and reboot the system.

Also, if I am understanding this report, your memory is plugged in to the DIMM4 socket. I would recommend you move your memory stick to the DIMM1 socket...

Hi,

Still the issue persists.Is this a common problem with Intel H67 chipset

I have replaced wireless mouse with USB combo to check and the system freezes sporadically

Hi,
If you even tried with an officially supported Operating System at no avail, I'd recommend contacting Intel via either phone (click here) or chat (click here) with the assembled system handy.
