https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/driver-program-corruption/m-p/2533129#M1252 Hi:<BR /><BR />I think the primary reason is the intentional/unintentional powering off of the computer while Windows (any version) is running, especially if applications have open files. Second, would probably be a failing hard disk drive or RAM and third, a failing power supply. The primary reason includes numerous possible hardware and software problems/issues.<BR /><BR />Does that answer your question, or would you like me to elaborate.<BR /> Sun, 27 May 2001 04:13:35 GMT Roger Faucher 2001-05-27T04:13:35Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/driver-program-corruption/m-p/2533128#M1251 Can someone give me three main reasons why Drivers/Programs/ and the Registry get Corrupt, excluding viruses?
