Disable Dr. Watson



1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit.exe in the Open box, and then click OK.



2. Locate and click the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug



NOTE: Steps three and four are optional, but they necessary if you want to restore the default use of Dr. Watson.



3. Click the AeDebug key, and then click Export Registry File on the Registry menu.



4. Enter a name and location for the saved registry file, and then click Save.



5. Delete the AeDebug key.



Registry entries for debugger programs are located in the AeDebug key in Windows. The Dr. Watson program is installed by default in Windows, and is configured to run when an application error occurs (with a data value of 1 for the Auto value). The default values are:



Value Name = Auto

Type = String (REG_SZ)

Data Value = 1 or 0. (Default is 1)



Value Name = Debugger

Type = String (REG_SZ)

Data Value = drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g



NOTE: This data value (drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g) is specific to Dr. Watson. Alternative debuggers will have their own values and parameters.

confident, it quite is various issues. could be a defective potential furnish. Overheating merchandise like cpu, motherboard, memory, etc. i might advise removing the e book for the motherboard or utilising the internet to seek for it. turn on the device and hear. Does it beep? if so what share situations? those beep designate a difficulty audibility purely in case the visual show unit can show it. in case you hear those then seem up what share beeps equivalent what difficulty. Does the keyboard lights (num, caps lock) cycle on? if so attempt keeping down the bios get admission to key. this could be F8, Delete or different keys reckoning on your keyboard. have you ever latterly extra or replaced something? Addition of units ought to bring about this as they might require further potential that could kill a potential furnish. get rid of the recent merchandise or undo what develop into finished. it would help to make certain while you're having a hardware or application difficulty... in case you have spare areas attempt to put in that spare no longer complication-free force with purely abode windows and notice if that's it. if so it must be application and you are able to could reinstall abode windows (or it quite is a corrupt no longer complication-free force). long tale short... choose greater information...
