AOA 150 1706 - Windows 7 lockups/crash during video streaming
(1 post)-
Hi all,
I've been experiecing this issue with my netbook since I installed Windows 7 Beta. I now have the Windows 7 RTM installed and still running into the same problem.
I see the following symptoms mostly when I am using my wifi to stream video from my server or if I leave it running for long periods downloading, for example, torrents etc...
Problems:
1) System would lock up and I would need to reboot
2) BSOD (Blue screen of death) but the text is unreadable - like the screen is distorted/smotherd
3) I will loose the wifi connection and at the same time Windows Aero would get disabled, and after a few minutes, Aero is back and WiFi is connectedI have sent this in for service to Acer and they replaced the Harddrive. I then reinstalled Windows 7 back on and so far it has not BSOD, but I still have the other two problems when streaming videos.
I am getting down to two issues. Either the wifi card or the video. I tried to update the latest drivers I can find for both, but still no go.
Is anyone else experiencing these types of issues?
Any ideas?
Thanks,
