    Anyone else have this problem. This version which is for w 7/8/10
    spsetup 130.

    Tried to run it the other day, it starts but suddently a message appears
    in large white text and filling the whole screen, says some like this,

    'your computer has developed a problem and needs to shut down, we are just collecting some info first.

    Only last about 30 seconds and shuts down.


    I downloaded speccy 'fresh' again tonight and when I tried to run it, it gave
    me a 2 second flash of the speccy report and then same thing happened as above.

    Every thing seems fine other wise when it reboots and even after running a couple of scans.

    I'm afraid to run the damn thing again now:D

    Not sure if it's much help, but just ran speccy there to test it out. V1.30.730 and it ran fine without issues for me. Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.

    Check the event log, there should be an event for the crash, as it's being captured at least.

    But my first instinct is that during it's enumeration, Speccy is calling something in a driver that's seemingly bugged, triggering the crash. The event log may pinpoint the device involved.

    That one's not an issue, it's just a warning from the last boot, rather than the crash. The disk one could be though, what's the details on that one? And does anything dodgy precede it?

    That boards has previously diagnosed as FUBAR. Are you still running it?

    If so, kinda like having your car engine go up in flames then asking why it wont drive. SATA controller is sh1tting the bed and taking the ICH down with it, crashing the machine.

    @ ED E


    Your mixing 2 pc's up, but I can see how that happened, sorry for the confusion, this pic is from my old pc that is dying.

    I'm no longer using this one but got a replacement with W10, that is running perfect, except when asked to run speccy for some reason.
