If you boot to the USB stick properly Windows will not start, memtest will.
Well yeah, I get that mate, but I did install everything on the device, hit F9 and selected Boot from USB device :/]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=195360 Tue, 06 Jul 2010 23:28:02 +0200 Reply by Spike Himself https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=195325 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=195325 Tue, 06 Jul 2010 21:02:36 +0200 Reply by Dr. Chris https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=195321 Windows will not start, memtest will.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=195321 Tue, 06 Jul 2010 20:51:51 +0200 Reply by Spike Himself https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=195320 Quoted from myNax
[...] Yeah, I did that twice
Evidentally not, since you say your computer does not crash until you start Steam. If you boot from a USB stick with memtest on it, you *won't even start Windows*.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=195320 Tue, 06 Jul 2010 20:47:10 +0200 Reply by grillinho https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=195310 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=195310 Tue, 06 Jul 2010 20:24:43 +0200 Reply by grillinho https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=194964 Quoted from Spike Himself
[...] The idea is that you let your computer boot from the usb stick rather than from your harddisk. You do this by pressing a button before windows loads. Which button that is depends on your motherboard, but it's usually F8. Alternatively you can go into the BIOS and change boot drive priority there.
Yeah, I did that twice. Still crashed once and the second time it only froze so I had to turn it off manually. Does that mean it has nothing to do with the harddisk?]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=194964 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 21:07:52 +0200 Reply by kitty jones https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=194838 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=10783&post=194838 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 11:01:50 +0200 Reply by Spike Himself https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-10783/page-1/?recent=196299#post=194835 Quoted from myNax

Okay I tried booting from my USB device, but it still crashed as I started up steam. The second time it only froze, but didn't crash. This is so over my head...
