I am have a Gateway NV58 laptop running Windows 7. It exhibits a very frustrating behavior every couple of months. I will be using it and all of a sudden, it will bluescreen because an error occurred and it is protecting itself. Rebooting into normal mode, it will work for a minute or two and then bluescreen again. In safemode it bluescreens even faster. However, in safemode with command prompt, it will boot up stably.
Playing around in the command prompt safemode, it bluescreened again when I tried to run explorer.exe.
And then it gets weirder: I let the thing sit overnight in the command prompt safemode, and the next day, everything is fine. It did this last night and I am using it to write this today. This is great, but it has happened twice now and I am afraid it is going to happen at some time when I really need the computer.
AVGfree and Malwarebytes pick up nothing, and I have no other problems with this computer at all.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Thanks for your help.
