Amd Athlon x2 6000+
Gigabyte Mobo
2Gig pc1066
Vista Home Prem.


Ok so this computer seems to crash any time the workload gets heavy. like when using windows media center with my media Center Extender. Up till now i thought the crashes were really random, and almost nothing appeared in Event Viewer until last night. The computer shut down at 3:48 pm.

Heres the event logs that are warnings.

Event 7036 3:45PM

"The Microsoft shadow copy provider entered the running state."

Event 10029 3:45PM

"DCOM started the service swprv with the arguments " in order to run server65EE1DBA-8FF4-4A58-AC1C-3470EE2F376A)"


Event 10029 3:45PM

"DCOM started the service vss with the arguments " in order to run server65EE1DBA-8FF4-4A58-AC1C-3470EE2F376A)

Event 9, MSFWDRV

"the device ,, did not respond within the timeout period."

Event 201 3:45

"Task Scheduler successfully completed task "\microsoft\windows\systemrestore\sr" instance, action "C:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe" with return 0.

And also from windows live one care

Event 2001, WinSS


Any idea what this means? From what i ahve been able to find out about VSS it and shadow copy are made for servers, and were included in windows 2003 server. Now i'm not sure why they are showing up in my vista or if they are suppose to be there, But i am sure that i do not have a server and they should not be running.
