I have an
acer aspire that blue screened on me a few days ago and turned back on to the
"No Bootable Device" screen. I followed the steps to fix this from
the website (
https://community.acer.com/en/kb/articles/94-no-bootable-device-error-message
) which worked and it turned back on. but the next day it blue screened on me
again, and has continued to do so about 20 times since, this time without the
bootable device screen. The errors I get are mostly MEMORY_MANAGMENT and
occasionally PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. I know this means that there is
something wrong with my RAM or hard drive but everything ive done to try and
figure out what exactly is wrong, or fix it, has resulted in nothing. Any
changes I make to my computer like updating drivers for example, will result in
a BSOD. If I do manage to update the drivers without it blue screening somehow,
when I restart my computer manually it resets to before the drivers updated as
if nothing happened. Even doing system scans or scans on my memory, disk drive,
or repairing corrupted files, the same thing still happens. I could delete all
the files by hand and when I restart, theyd all be back. Any
changes I make don’t matter. When I restart it all resets to before the
changes.
Since I
couldn’t make any progress this way I decided to save all my important things
on an external drive and factory reset, and wipe everything clean. But that
didn’t work either. I go through the recovery process, it loads to 100%, and
then my computer shuts off and restarts, and everything is still here. And it
still continues to blue screen on me.
If anyone has any advice for something I can
try or what the next step I should take is please let me know. I am at a
complete loss on what to do. I just bought this computer last year and I really
don’t want to have to buy a new one.
