BSOD Keeps Happening After Clean Install
Aug 28, 2012
So I was getting a lot of BSODs (one every 10 minutes once I logged in) and it was a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE and I couldn't figure out which driver it was. Finally I bought a new SSD and took my old HDD out and did a clean install of Windows in hopes that the BSODs would stop. To my displeasure, they keep coming back. I have a Toshiba A505-S6975 and all of my drivers appear to be up to date according to Windows (although they all say they are from 2009).
Here is some information:

my computer Blue Screens about once every 24 hours or so, so it's not that bad yet, but it often happens when I'm not doing anything at the computer. It was only three times so far, but I figure that's more than enough to get help with it, so it doesn't keep happening.

I have run memtest and dskchk in dos to verify RAM and HDD integrity because I was getting lots of pc lock-ups where the only thing to do was hard shutdown.The two most recent errors i got was driver_irql_not_equal_or_less with stop: 0x000000C4,the other page_fault_in_nonpagedarea with win32k.sys error, no stop code.

For about a month or so I've been getting various BSOD messages. I have ran "chkdsk" and it came back with everything being okay. I've ran "SFC SCANNOW" everything came back fine. I waned to run a few more tests (like the ones testing RAM, but with my computer not really turning on for that long now it seems like it might be too hard to do) From what I've noticed in the dump files I think "USBPORT.sys" and "usbohci.sys" are the main problems, but I could be wrong. I'm not really sure what to do now. It's got to the point where it takes a lot of attempts to just log into my computer and even then it doesn't stay on for long (no more than an hour now). I kind of gave up on everything and decided that installing debian as another OS is the next option. I reset my computer back to factory settings but no luck, I'm still getting the error!For the record I've had this computer for just over a year now, and everything seemed to be fine until recently and now it just seems to keep going downhill. I also can't give you the more recent dump files because my computer would end up BSODing half way though getting them all together, but I do have some recentish ones and it seems to be the same problems happening. However earlier today I got the 3B error which I haven't really got much before.

Randomly crashing PC. The BSOD and restart used to happen when watching videos online or attempting to play games, but now it happens often no matter what I am doing. I have done a format of my PC and a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit, but the same thing started happening almost instantly.
System Specs:
Processor: AMD FX-4100 Quad-Core, 3.60 Ghz
8.00 GB RAM
System Type: 64-bit Operating System
Hard drive: hitachi hd T721010SLA360 ATA 1TB (899 gigs free)
Bug check description: This bug check indicates that a fatal hardware error has occurred. This bug check uses the error data that is provided by the Windows Hardware Error Architecture (WHEA). This is likely to be caused by a hardware problem. This problem might be caused by a thermal issue. The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

I have some problems with BSOD. It can happen few times a day, and it can appear after a week without problems. Usually it happened when I use the internet, but yesterday, for the first time it happened 2 minutes after I turned on the computer, without doing anything.I updated all the drivers without any positive result.

it crashes suddenly and many times and it has given me this problems since i bought it,so i decided to post here to look up for the solution.
My computer's OS is windows 7 x64,it has 8 GB of ram and an Intel I5 Quad core processor 3.20 GHz.
I tried fixing the problem by updating drivers,searching for viruses,setting my pc to low power consumption,improving the heat dissipation with many fans and a new case and cleaning inside it,running chkdsk,uninstalling some useless programs and doing RAM tests but nothing of this worked.

I have had my acer aspire for about 6 months and for the past 5 months this BSOD keeps happening at random times, and the symtem reboots and then restores.I have tried various methods to stop this happening - and I am now at a loss - I have tried puting hotfix on and also restoring to factory setting, i have heard about updating the bios etc but i am not great with the technical side of things.My computer came with windows 7 on it and it no disc - so how do i unistall it and then reinstall? i am hoping that i dont have to do thi however i see no other option.i should add that i contacted acer and that they have agreed to take it back and look at the hardware, however it its a software issue which i think it is - they will charge me 80 to fix it.

I have been having a lot of blue screens for the past few weeks. I have tried running a disk check and memcheck and those didn't find any problems. I just did a fresh install of windows 7 64 bit and have been having the same problems.

Windows 7 Pro x86 (32-bit) Original installed OS OEM Age of system (hardware): 2010 December Age of OS installation: Two days. I did complete SFC /SCANNOW without any errors. I've run a diagnostic on the memory that didn't turn up anything and my case is running cool. I have several others from the same lot that are all working well (including the one I'm on now). I did get my first BSOD this time around after install of SP1 install without restart yet. After installing AVG (I know...) it occurred again. I can't really give this computer to anyone until it doesn't crash randomly.

Is Windows 7
- x64 ?
- the original installed OS on the system
- full retail version
- What is the age of system (hardware)? approx. 1 year, ssd drive new
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) clean install
I have recently (4 days ago)aquired a new Crucial 128Gb ssd drive and performed a clean installation of windows 7 64bit, since then i have been experiencing random BSODs (3 times so far)All software is genuine. Have performed full malware and antivirus check. Results are clean.

i just downloaded windows 7 rc x64.
at first i wanted to upgrade from 7000, but after the first reboot i saw blue... (BSOD)
then i thought, it would be better to do a clean install, burned the ISO on DVD and again saw BSOD even before installation progress has started (after Windows had collected information and first boot)...
now to my question:
is the BSOD caused by a bad ISO, or is anything wrong with my system?
by the way: Beta 1 Build 7000 x64 works fine.

I am trying to install windows 7 on a MSI PM8M3-V motherboard, but every time it gets to the "completing installation" step, it BSOD's and doesn't give me enough time to read the errors before it restarts. I have tried everything, I installed xp just fine, and ran the W7 upgrade advisor, and it says everything is fine. BIOS is updated, every setting in the BIOS has been fudged with to no avail. no memory problems, disk errors, etc. I tried installing with everything disconnected, and a different AGP video card, still nothing I've tried installing from DVD-ROM and USB, both give the same result The crazy thing is that this board, memory, HDD combo has had W7 installed and running fine before, it's just when I put it into a new case it is not installing.

I use a 1.5 year old aces aspire 5738z and I think it just died on me. Here is what happens. Whatever I do it cannot stay without a BSOD for more than 10 minutes. I tried reinstalling drivers and it did not change anything so I tried several things but finally just formated it and installed windows again. I actually got a BSOD while installing windows from an original CD so im pretty sure my problem is hardware related. I did a check of the ram with Memtest for approx 45 minutes (one full cycle) and found nothing. I did a quick test of the HD with an other program and it did not find anything either so im starting to think its the graphics card that is dying.
Here are some specs
Core Duo T4200
Mobile Intel GM45 Express
2x 2048MB

So I received a solid state drive for Christmas last year and haven't had any luck with installing it. I'm doing everything I can to rule out that it was DOA considering that at this point it's probably past warranty and I don't really wanna drop the money on a new one.I've tried to replicate the crashes but have had no luck. There appears to be no conditions required for the system to crash, so my initial thought was some kind of hardware malfunction.

So i upgraded my motherboard/chip a month or so ago and everything seemed to be working great. The part that worried me was when I swapped out the Mobo/chip,I didnt do a clean install because i had no way to back up any information. (there was really nothing important to back up besides 20gb of music and my saved game files). So what I did was after the swap, I put in the reinstallation disc, chose custom options, installed a custom version of windows and copied over my User folder from the "windows.old" file in to the new User folder. Something didn't feel right, despite ecerything working jsut fine, so I made this post a while back:
[URL]
Now, last night, I finally recieved my 32GB flash drive in the mail so I can do everything the correct way. I copied my User file over to the flash drive and found a guide on-line with screenshots on how to correctly do a clean install. 1 hour later I had a new version of Windows on my HDD and alomst instantly I started to have BSODs, one after another!!
Most, if not all BSODs had the 0x00000124 code. After doing a simple google search, I found that this is a vague hardware issue Yes, I OC'd my cpu. Its a i7 2600k. Why wouldn't I? NO, I didn't revert my mobo to the default settings before doing the clean install. Can this be part of the issue?
Random thoughts/information:
-After the clean install, I used the mobo disc to install drivers
-After the clean install, I used the EVGA disc to install drivers, as well as went to their website to get the lastest (i got the driver dated 2/21/2012)
-I use a wireless mouse and wireless keyboards (logitech) and the dongles were left in while doing the clean install
-My HDD is 1 TB in capacity. For some reason it says only 931GB in the control panel. (this is big concern, because before I did the mobo swap/custom install, i could have sworn it said 1024GB
-Am I looking at needing to wipe the drive entirely? Using DBAN or something rather than just a clean install?

I have installed all betas I could find, all were/are running fine. But the RC is a lot of pain. It fails into BSOD at the last step of the install "Completing installation". The error reads BAD_POOL_HEADER. I tried 64bit only.
I verified the ISO checksums, I have read the recommendations here, tried Safe mode, disabled display, installed from disc or from inside Windows, from HDD, changed BIOS settings to safe defaults... No luck. I even tried to integrate newest video drivers from nvidia.com using vLite.
My PC is Q6600, Gigabyte P35ds3l, 6Gb ram, evga Nvidia 8800gts, old WD Raptor 74Gb, USB mouse and kbd, Dell lcd.

The blue screen seem to accour when trying to load a Cubase (music production program) file, randomly. Can work for hours without anything happening.Can someone plz tell me what file it's pointing to? Or if its hardware related.So far I only get blue screens when my firewire sound card is connected and I'm running Cubase. But I don't wanna blame the sound card - it's too expensive for that Before reinstalling windows last BSOD was pointing related to OrangeWare Corp. (usbehci.sys) - I have NO idia what this file is.Could it be my PSU? 2 years old 560w Hiper - Supposed to be high quiality.Should I run my memory using bios XMP profile? Tried it once, but the cpu got hotter so i disabled it.

I'm working on a re-install of all components following a complete corruption of the boot sector on my drive which could not be fixed with repairs. The last time I installed everything fresh, I had no issues. Between then and now, there have been no hardware changes on my system, but now I am having issues installing the IDT Codecs. I keep getting an error along the following lines: Quote: ExitError: Error=Device Object not present, restart the system and run setup again. Running under compatibility mode, and running drivers from both the motherboard CD and the manufacturer website both have the same effect. The CD, when booted, says "This OS not support!" and only contains 32-bit vista codecs. ECS' website download indicates the IDT drivers as being compatible with Windows 7. Both do not work. It is almost as if the hardware "disappeared," despite the fact that I was using the drivers quite successfully till just 2 days ago, when the boot sector went kaput.
Windows has installed its own default set, which do nothing to power the 8mm jacks which I use with my speakers, but instead put sound through the HDMI, which is useless because I use a dedicated graphics card. I have tried uninstalling this codec and re-installing IDT, to no effect. Windows replaces with its own default codec.I have referenced this thread here, but offered solutions do not seem to work for me: Intel IDT Audio Driver will not install

Does anyone know whether there is a difference in performance between doing a clean install of Windows 7 vs upgrading Vista? Any better stability? I'm just wondering whether it's worth the trouble of the clean install.

first I would like to apologize for not writing this thread according to BSOD post instructions but my problem is so specific that I am not able to comply with them. My problem follow thread I have posted here a week ago, I have purchased new SSD from Kingston (SSDNow V200 128GB) a few weeks ago. But I was not able to install Windows 7 on it (BSOD all the time). I thought that I have got damaged SSD, so I claimed it in my vendor. The claim was solved in the way that I have got new same SSD (only exchange for new one was performed). So i tried to perform clean install of Windows 7 32 bit CZ Pro SP1 on it, but again, during installation process I have got a lot of BSODs. So I changed mode from AHCI to ATA in BIOS. After that I successfully performed installation and booted into win 7. I changed back mode to AHCI according to this tutorial: Improve SATA hard disk performance (Convert from IDE to AHCI) and everything was ok. I started to install updates (via windows update), but after installation and reboot I got BSOD again.

I have just been given a Fujitsu Lifebook S6540 running windows 7 and on the whole it is fine but it is eating the battery when switched off. Research on the internet has shown that the computer, although seeming to shut down may still be running in the background. I have therefore been into the registry and changed the powerdown after shutdown code to 1 rather than 0 which should ensure a complete shut down. I duly did this and let the computer charge up before shutting down and then left it for a day. It did not make a shred of difference and found half the battery had been used. I have read around on various things that might cause this but a lot of it has been in extremely technical computer speak that I have been unable to understand. Is anyone here able to give me some clear trouble shooting advice and tell me what may be causing this?

I'm not sure exactly how to describe what is happening. I built this computer myself. (Don't think listing the parts is necessary for this problem/solution)
Basically, I'll be browsing the net, or even just doing homework on word or excel, and the computer will start to act funky. First it will freeze, from 5 - 30 seconds, mouse doesn't move, can't ctrl alt dlt, can't alt f4, nothin. When things snap back out of freeze mode, sometimes the mouse icon gets all funky, like normally if a hyperlink is hovered over it turns into a hand right? well it'll be a I cursor or it might be an old school looking hand that's all 8 bit.
It will freeze again, and usually the 2nd time it wont come undone and I usually reset my computer at this point.

I originally did the upgrade install of Windows 7 from Vista to Windows 7. I am seeing that I now am running "ChkDsc" every time that my computer is shut down. I was told that I would be better off to do a clean install and reinstall programs and files. Can I do a clean install with my upgrade disc, or will I be creating additional problems ?
