i've been getting BSOD's on a daily basis while playing , browsing , or just booting up my windows?
Computer specs : Intel QuadCore Q6660 @2.40ghz, 2.4gb RAM, 32-bit Windows 7 OS nVidia GeForce 9400 GT , maxtor ide 80gb HDD, asus p5w64 WS pro motherboard, Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC, onboard soundcard

The problem is that Flash will not stay installed. Another problem (related?) is that I *cannot* install Itunes on this computer, it will error out each time, and Apple is notorious for telling me it is a Windows problem, nothing they can do, so I found a way around the "long pole in the tent" requirement of Itunes to Sync iPad/iPod, and this really isn't even a "problem" anymore as much as an annoyance. Other utilities, Avast virus protection, Malware Bytes, Spybot Search/Destroy with immunization, and always running Iolo System Mechanic.
All software and operating system is up to date with current patches and updates. A program I use regularly that may be suspect but also seems so innocuous as to have no bearing on it is a keyboard macro program, Keyboard Express v4. For example with this program, I can define some hot keys like ALT-CTRL-T which will insert some text I define to the program into wherever the cursor is at on the current web page or Word document. Always text, no graphics or funkiness here.
I usually use Firefox (v11.0) as my browser but interestingly enough, I discover that Flash has also disappeared when I go to IE (v9), and it appears there is a different Flash for IE than there is for Firefox, depending on which browser is used to download (multiple times daily) the Flash installer. An interesting aspect is that after I re-install Flash, IE and/or Firefox, then later on go to Outlook and click a link in an email, Outlook gives me an error message about not being able to open the link. But if I reboot, Outlook is now fine to click on and open that same link, although Flash has again gone away.
when I open a task (Ex. Firefox) multiple processes shows with firefox.exe name in the 'Task Manager'.
firefox.exe
svchost.exe
obviously you can see that I'm new here and here for a specific reason and this being my reason. So I just noticed that I had 5 explorer.exe processes running before with no windows/browsers open. I could tell my main one apart because it used more memory and the others all had *32 at the end (I'm using an x64 version of Win 7 Home)
I ended them and nothing happened, but then I also checked msconfig under the start-up tab and saw.
At random points throughout the day I get the BSOD and my computer restarts.I haven't installed any new hardware, I've played around with the my antivirus and such as well as ensuring everything is firmly in my motherboard.

View 1 Replies View RelatedEvery morning about 30-45 minutes after boot the computer BSOD. Looking at the Nirsoft bluescreen review its caused most of the time by Threatfire which is a PCTools file the antivirus run on the machine.
Back in December prior to PCTools I had Microsoft AV on and AVG each seemed to cause the same problem.

My next step is to try turning off Threatfire, effectively shutting of the antivirus.
I've recently had quite a few system crashes on my desktop. After I got the first one, they have been rather frequent, 1-5 times per day, usually when watching videos. I have tried reinstalling windows, flashing bios, updating misc drivers, ran CHKDSK on both my os ssd and storage hhd, but in vain.

I have no other components connected to the computer. I have attached a zip including 6 minidumps.
I have an ASUS n80vn laptop that is about 3 years old. It came with OEM Windows Vista, but I installed my own copy of Windows 7 Professional 64bit more than two years ago, and there was no problem upon installation.
Lately (for about a month), I have been receiving BSOD either during boot or the log-in screen. The BSOD usually happens only once per day, and I would be forced to restart my computer. No BSOD upon restart. I suspect the problem occurs when the laptop is cold. I have attached the BSOD Dump files collected over the past month.
The only driver change I've had was nVidia graphic driver updates. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the two most recent drivers and the BSOD problem still occurs.
On a side note, I have been getting random freeze-ups too, and this has been happening before the BSOD problem. These freezes occur when I'm doing regular tasks such as web browsing or typing in Word/Excel etc. When my system freezes, there is no BSOD, but nothing can be moved (keyboard + mouse won't do anything). Closing lid does nothing too. Strangely, I have not been getting this kind of freezes when I play games.
Quick rundown of specs:

Since I got my computer, it has been giving me BSOD's almost every day. Crashes happen most often when playing games, but it has occurred at other times also.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get my wife's new computer up and running without any BSOD or program failures. Note that the system was not initially set up to capture the dmp files so all the earliest ones are missing. I presented the initial problems to the original seller who recommended sticking with MSE and uninstalling Norton 360 and I did that. Another forum suggested that Virtual Memory was the problem and I disabled and restored VM. Still having multiple crashes and I am hoping that I can get real help here. I do note that all the crashes have ntoskrnl.exe in the driver stack although sometimes alone and sometimes with other drivers.[CODE]

I am brand new to this site so forgive me if I miss a step. I was wondering if someone who is good at debugging dump files could give me a second set of eyes on these 2 I will attach. One BSOD is DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (ntoskrnl.exe) and the other is UNEXEPECTED_KERNAL_MODE_TRAP (ntoskrnl.exe).I have this problem across 15 identical laptops with fresh installs of Win 7 Pro 64Now my guess is this will boil down to a BIOS upgrade, but if there are driver conflicts within these dump files
View 6 Replies View RelatedThe computer BSOD multiple times a day and even more frequently when playing SWTOR.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy custom built machine is about 9 months old. For the last 3 months or so it has been crashing multiple times per day (usually 1-2 per day). It doesn't usually crash for atleast 3-4 hours after the reboot. I can't find any thing to make it crash on demand and don't notice myself doing the same time each time it crashes. It seems pretty random.
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. It is the full retail version and was the first OS installed on this hard drive.
I have attached the results of the BSOD Dump & System File Collection app and the system health alert.
Got to be quick because I've already had a BSOD trying to post this. This is a new build. All new components. All kinds of error codes contantly. I've updated Bios, SSD firmware, all drivers I can find, did a clean reinstall of Windows 7, ran memtest86 twice (20 passes total) on both sticks no errors, ran chkdsk -no errors although I see one today from my bios resetting defaults to IDE instead of ACHI - my fault. Ran Driver Verifier and came up with a violation in Event Viewer but I don't know how to read it. And yes I wear ESD straps etc. when I work on it.Also no overclocking / unlocking - everything is stock / default.

I have been trying to resolve some BSOD I got on my PC. To do this I also re-installed windows several times. I build and install everything by myself for years, but this is the first PC with a lot of BSODs. I used the Debugging Tool for windows to check the minidumps by myself, but as far as my knowledge goes, I didn't find anything special in there. The only thing that was obvious was that in all BSODs the ntoskrnl.exe was involved. This was something BlueScreenView revealed also. In my opinion however it seems there is more to it, since the ntoskrnl.exe could probably also crash because of another driver or hardware problem.On my previous fresh Windows 7 Install I did found out once that alot of BSOD I had at that time were caused by a bad Creative driver for my X-Fi. On the web I found a useful hint, because other X-Fi users pointed to the beta-drivers for the card. The official Creative drivers are almost two years older then these beta drivers, so obviously the beta drivers should be the first choice. These drivers are the ones I use now. I also had some problem with my OCZ Vertex 3 MI, like most owners of this hardware, and the problem was the unstable firmware. I am using the latest firmware now, which is 2.15, and that made the system alot more stable. The third problem is happening in POST: my logitech G110 keyboard features an USB hub and connection for media. These kind of USB keyboards had some problem with recognision and initialisation in the UEFI BIOS. For that I also updated to the latest BIOS for my motherboard.
All in all you can see I discovered and tried to fix a lot of different causes for BSODs. I also ran memtest once on the system for two hours, but this was in Dual Channel setup. Didn't gave any errors anyway.The latest minidump is created by the use of Verifier. I turned verifier on to test the two drivers for my AMD HD6970(crossfired). After 5 minutes in windows the BSOD appeared. I am using AMD Catalyst 12.1 drivers. I tried this, because the BSODs all are different then the ones I had on previous Windows 7 installations (on the same pc), but the only thing I changed in the current installation, was the AMD 12.1 drivers.I reinstalled windows about two weeks ago, after using Secure Erase on my SSD. I installed only the latest drivers for all the things that need drivers. The complete installation, including windows updates and drivers, was without any fault. One day later the first BSOD appeared, etc. I use the system to play Battlefield 3 only, since the fresh install. Strangely, I played more then 50 hours in the game, without any crash or BSOD! The new AMD FX-8150 processor is the first to support native 1866 MHz DDR3. The motherboard specification showed that the board supported 1866 (OC), thus it's seen as an overclock. I set all settings in bios like the ram specificiation told, which is: 9-11-9-27 2T @1.65V. Still, it could be that the 1866 MHz is too much on standard NB voltages? It's something I couldn't find an answer to on the internet, and since I never overclock I don't have that much experience with the voltages.
All BSODs happened in different situations, like just after windows log in, or when I start a program, or when idling, or when browsing the internet.Since I couldn't figure out any more usefull details out of the minidumps, I hope someone here with more experience could check the attached files.
Computer is a few years old, a home build, running Windows 7 Home Premium x64. Haven't really had too many problems other than the occasional BSOD or random restart, but it's gotten a lot worse lately so I wanna get to the bottom of it.The two errors I've gotten are Memory Management and System Service Exception, both seem to be linked to the ntoskrnl.exe file. I also ran the System File Checker and got the following error reported: "Cannot repair member file [l:24{12}]"kerberos.dll" of Microsoft-Windows-Security-Kerberos". Lastly I ran the windows memory diagnostic and it detected several hardware errors.
1)A system restore to a couple weeks ago
2)Repair the system/OS with my Windows 7 disc
3)Replace the RAM

We have created a network image using Acronis which has so far been successfully installed on 4 of these machines. However, we have come to the 5th machine and as of last night it refused to power on. Then after 10-15 mins it came up and started to load windows but gave us a BSOD and everytime it restarted itself it would give us a different message. I have attached the logs for someone to look at to see if this is possibly a PSU issue or something else.
The machines have:
Windows 7 enterprise

I keep getting a BSOD when im playing WoW then opening IE or downloading
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been having issues with a computer I've built recently. Whenever I play games like WoW, Killing Floor, and now Diablo 3... I'll be able to play for awhile, but maybe after 30min to an Hour my computer will just crash. Black Screen on monitors, sounds coming from speakers (no music continues normally. It's more like the last sound going "ErerrrrrrRGghhhhh" lol). No blue screens or anything. Now... I originally thought it could be a GPU issue. But i've already RMA'ed one card, and gotten a new one. This one has run pretty well so far. But I don't know. I'd feel awkward RMAing another card.I've performed Stress tests on both my CPU and RAM for at least 4hours on each with no errors coming up for either.SO I am kind of stumped. I was reading "BSOD while playing games" and thought my issue was a bit similar.I went through the steps that writhziden had posted in that thread. Disk Check - I had no errors on any of my drives. SFC - I had ran that before a few times. And finally the Verifier, which caused my system to crash in regular start-up. But it was fine in safe mode.

Computer is about 2months old now. I sunk a lot of money into it... I just want the darn thing to work properly.
initially my comp would just crash and i would have to power off to reboot. now im getting bsods instead, i have tried to work out the cause of these by myself but they all apear to be caused by different problems. i have looked at a lot of other bsod threads and i have used verifier.exe which created one of the memdumps.
i seem to get them whilst playing games such as lol or fallout or watching Internet videos, but sometimes i have had them for no reason at startup. i have done a fair amount of virus and malware scanning just incase it was somthing like that but its most probably a driver? i have uploaded the bsod files,
Following power failure, my HP Pavilian tried rebooting, but was interrupted due to multiple power failures. On next full reboot, it went to BSOD when I logged into my Windows profile. On subsequent reboot, Windows offered to do a system restore. I restored it to a previous date. After that restore, the computer would allow me to open my profile, but went to BSOD when I tried to open Outlook. I am now operating in "safe mode with networking" but perepherals (e.g., scanner) and some applications (e.g., Outlook) do not work. Files from SF Diagnostic are attached.

[code] I couldn't do a health report due to being stuck with safe mode with networking. The BSOD started about two months ago while the gf was using it and didn't happen for me till yesterday. As of now I can get it to start normally but It crashes any time I open anything. I tried swapping ram and no change. I honestly don't know a whole lot about windows 7.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy computer just likes to crash. I haven't run into any way to repeat any of these, and there's no common factors. This has been happening for months, and I've been able to stand it until now. I'm just sick of never having a working computer. Hundreds of blue screens, at least 6 different error codes over the last 6 months. I've attached the latest few.The last problem I had with this computer was a rash of BSODs every few minutes, rendering my computer completely inoperable. It was bad caps on an old motherboard, which forced me to upgrade my mobo, CPU and RAM; that was done Sep 23 last year. I've still been getting a few lately, so I tried switching to an older hard drive I have on hand, which helped some, but didn't solve the problem completely. Here's the specs as of now.
Win 7 64 bit
Brand new case with two big fans to hopefully rule out overheating
Gigabyte GA-880GA-UD3H
AMD 955 Sector 5 DDR3 8GB
Rebranded MSI Nvidia 9500 GT
Secondhand PSU, 480W or 550W, don't remember which (suspected cause)
Drives:
Western Digital 40gig IDE (current boot drive )
Secondhand Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB SATA (problem child)
Generic IDE DVD R/RW
Yes, I know, it's weird mixup of parts that could run a lot better with newer hardware. That's what happens when you take what you can get and spend money only when you have to. I don't have money to throw at this stupid thing, money is in short supply. So don't just say, "buy a brand new this, that and the other and your troubles will be over," unless that is the ONLY option to fix this. I simply can't afford it.
EDIT TO ADD:A short list of codes and associated files I've gotten in the last couple BSODs, just for quick review and in no specific order:
50, ntfs.sys
3B, ntfs.sys
D1, ndis.sys
3B, tcpip.sys
Because of the ntfs.sys being a common factor, I suspect the hard drives, but I'm also wondering if it's not something else,because this happens with two different drives, one IDE, the other SATA.Also, the errors below are from both drives, both with Win 7 installed. The perfmon was run on the IDE drive, as the SATA drive is too unstable to run reliably for 30 minutes.
I just reinstalled Windows 7 and added a new motherboard and cpu. I've been getting BSOD all day and it seems to be the same few errors every time, but at different intervals. I've attached a crash report from BlueScreenView.
