Hi,

My vista crashed 2 times today. This is probably the first time since december 2007 when I bought my laptop with Vista. I know the usual question would be to check if I installed some new drivers or any hardware device but thats not the case as far as I know. Its a Vista Ultimate system, with a cor 2 duo 2.ghz, 2gb ram, wifi etc. The first time it crashed today was with a blue screen with the usual bsod stuff printed on it (I know it can be different stuff written there but right now I dont know the exact stuff other than 'check for new hardware installation' msg). i was running visual studio 2005 doing asp.net development with it. The second time when it crashed it hanged and the computer made one beep sound, but no bsod, the computer just didnt reply, and here also I was debugging something in asp.net in vs 2k5.

Is there any software that that provide me some information that may help me find out exactly whats wrong? Some internal diagnostic software that maybe ships with vista?

regards.
