Hello Tony

 

Welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help

 

I can't remember offhand but do you know if you have a recovery partition on this Dell laptop?

 

Do you also have the XP, (if you got one) disk to hand?

Unfortuately I cannot find the original disc I have requested this from DELL but have not had any reply!!!!!:eek:

[Dalo Harkin]

it could be a number of things:-

The RAM on the GPU -

The GPU itself

The HDD.

 

Did you do anything differently the last time you shut the PC down?

installed any new software etc?

Have you tried Last Known Good Configuration from the Safe Mode Boot menu?

Hi Jack

 

Yes tried all the available functions available in safe mode. Same blue screen.

 

No new software put on
