- Does it crash at the same time with the same application running?
- How many applications are you running when it crashes?
- What happens when it crashes I.E. blue screen, monitor goes black, power supply fan winds down or any funny noise such as a "snap"?
- Start the task manager and make sure "all users" is selected and then list what processes are running, what services are running and how many users show as logged on?
- The list may be long and you need to go on line to see what is required or should be required? Stop the ones that are not required or are suspect.
- Try starting in "Safe Mode" both with and without LAN connectivity to see if the crash happens.

Good luck.
was a levlo i7 3770
but the m/b fried and was replaced with an asus p8p67le
6g ram 3 2g modular geforce gtx550ti card 500g sata3 hd
gets the this is not a levlo system prompt but works normally

crash has 3 results yellow screen lock up requires at power off/on
no connection but will auto reboot
no connection but needs to be manually rebooted by button
no real pattern to which of the 3 above results
at first video play caused random crash but is getting worse and now crash even on pelican with no video playing

the only consistent crash is trying to update windoz performance ratings

tryed an identical video card same result
