I have a custom build pc, and I get random BSOD's while surfing the web or playing games. I am running Windows 7 RC... Will buying the Windows 7 release fix my problems or do you guys think its more of a hardware problem?

I recently built a pc but been having random BSODs. I have updated all my drivers to the latest versions. The most recent BSOD I got is today while surfing the net.
It displayed MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and fltmgr.sys

Fresh install of Windows 7 64 on my PC almost exactly 1 week ago. It loaded w/ a i5 2500k processor, Asus P8V68-Pro mb, 4x8gb G.Skill DDR3 1600 ram, and 2 120G Sandisk Extreme SSDs in Raid 0. I did the re-install of a Windows 7 upgrade disc I purchased.1 stick of the g.skill ram was an RMA so I'm thinking it might be that. I didn't run memtest86+ when I got the new stick so that's a possibility.BSOD occurred when my gf was surfing on Firefox. It was very random, 1st BSOD since the new install. Since I didn't see it in person I didn't catch the error code.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi've gotten the BSOD before, but it was worse than this case. my laptop suddenly shut down one day and would just show me the bsod any time it was turned on, and then it would shut off again. after lots of failed attempts to get my laptop back on, i restored it. luckily i had a back up of all my files so it was no biggie.now it has started doing it again, but this time it is turning back on after it 'crashes'. i'll be on the internet and then the screen will go black, then it will flash me the BSOD or something about crash dump, and then shut off.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have attached the collected dump files and perfmon report. Also included is a pic of the specific BSOD, and a screen dump of his system specs.- x86 (32-bit) or x64 ? X64- the original installed OS on the system? yes it is- an OEM or full retail version? OEM- What is the age of system (hardware)? Less than 12 months- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) PreinstalledThere seemed to be some indication of ATI involvement in the crashes, so I have tried updating the ATI drivers, but the problem continues - perhaps once a week the system will freeze, mouse pointer can still be moved but nothing can be clicked onEventually it restarts with the DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE BSOD.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a new pc build using various parts we have accumulated. When using Internet Explorer I get app crashes. I have been playing DC Universe Online and get random app crash, display drivers stop responding, apphangB1, I also lose monitor signal. Here is a list of fixes we have tried already:
-We have disabled internet explorer add ons and even tried disabling IE completely, to no avail
-We have swapped out the 5770 for an 8800 GTX that we know works, same problem
-We have the latest BIOS/drivers
-We have run SpeedFan, CPU temp 41C
-We have run Memtest for both sticks of RAM at the same time in slots 1 and 3 and there was an error, so we tried to isolate the bad RAM by testing invidivual sticks in slot 3 - no errors on either stick? therefore, we put the sticks in slots 3 and 4, assuming there may be a problem with slot 1 - worked ok for a couple of hours, then game crashes and black screen with sound requiring reboot. Monitor is fine, as it works on my BF's pc with no problems.
-We have tried a couple of installs of Windows 7
-We have run chkdsk - no errors.The BIOS is running on default, nothing overclocked - we have used the correct timings for the RAM and autotimed them, same problem
We are currently not using an antivirus because we did not want to add more problems, but we will get AVAST.My BF has given up now, as there is nothing else he can think of to try. I feel we are so close to resolving the issue, as it did run fine for a while, but then a bunch of errors all at once. If it helps, here is a copy of the error log.
I dont know if this is the right area or not, as i just joined, but it seems to be the best place. I recently bought a new computer, and now it will randomly shut down. Its also making loud pitch noises. That just started happening. I called tech support and they told me it was probably just the power supply. Before I send it in though, i want to make sure that is what is wrong. I dont know all to put on here.

I haven't had one while gaming yet, but most have occurred while I was not using the computer and one while I was on Chrome. All are BBCode 109.

It has been going on for a while now, I have tried everything I can think of to no avail.I get Blue Screens out of the blue from anywhere, i can be idle to playing a game to the computer just getting into windows. On the link above I've tried many things, inluding memtest, driver verifyer, chkdisk, uninstalling norton (he said that could be the problem), system repair, a complete re-install of windows 7, updating all my drivers. To most recently cutting back to 4GB ram and making the timings and voltages to the correct setting instead of being on 'auto' in my bios, and it still BSODing. I have also ran 'prime95' on a blend test, and had errors on core #4:
By random I mean different BCCodes at a regular time, not the other way around.[CODE]Here's what I've done.- Moved RAM modules. Happens with either or both installed.- Turned off all startup items using Spybot S&D- Disabled hardware drivers not in use.- Memtest, clear; but I now know this isn't worth squat.- Attached the minidump filesAny ideas? Other forum posts seem to indicate memory or IRQ. System screen doesn't indicate an IRQ conflict and I've swapped the RAM around. I'm stumped. Could a dying battery (won't last any length of time unplugged) drop the supply voltages enough to cause BSODs? Surely not
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've just gotten my pc back after basicly everything got replaced, due to being in a building where there was a fire. Since it came back, I've started to have BSOD issues, which pop up randomly while playing games or doing other things. I already ran a Memtest overnight. It ran for 10 hours and came out with 0 errors.I've tried to attach everything stated in the Post New Thread-thread. If I missed anything, please let me know.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having problems with random BSOD's when i'm coming out of sleep mode on my laptop. Most of the time I can bring the computer out of sleep with no issues but every month or so it will crash with a BSOD within 5 seconds of waking up. I can't seem to reproduce the issue, it just happens at random. I attached two dmp files that may be relevant to the issue as well as screenshots from CPUz and the HTML report from RAMMon.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy PC is running Win7HPx64. It is about 18 months old. The OS was full-retail. The BSODs started around October 2010, for no obvious reason. Now I am getting them up to 3-4 times a day, and then none for a week at a time.I have already done thorough scans of the HDD, RAM and driver updates with no progress.
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis PC has been experiencing random BSODs for a couple of months now. I've taken this machine to a repair place, but they were unable to recreate the BSOD, but also apparently couldn't review dump files or do any other analysis of the crashes, so my faith is greatly diminished.
Anyway, I've recently done a fresh install of windows, replaced the RAM (currently at 8gb), and updated the ASACPI.sys driver from the 2005 version to the 2009 version. At this point, I have no idea what to do next. I think there is a bios setting throwing everything out of whack, but I honestly don't know enough about bios to feel comfortable poking around in there.
System basics:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit Custom built system with Windows 7 being the only OS ever installed on the system. Full retail version.
The system is about 1 year old and I reinstalled Windows last week (Monday, 11/21 ). No blue screens until the 26th. There've been 5 so far.
Attached is the BSOD file and the perfmon.html report as requested.
I've included as much information that I can think of about this problem. I've been getting random blue screens for months now at idle and while starting up. I saw a post about using Avast, which I was and have removed, and started using MSE.When I removed it, my computer ran about 6 days straight with no problems so I thought maybe that fixed it. However, I had a BSOD this morning when I got up and have had about 3 more in just the last hour.I do need to say that when I got this motherboard the IDE did not work. I didn't think much of it since I wasn't going to be using it. I know, I should have sent it back so that was my mistake. The OS is about 6 months old and the rest of the hardware, except for the video card, is about 1 1/2 years old. The VC is around 10 months old. I've also tried updating and rolling back drivers without success.

Seemingly random reoccurring BSOD.
It appears my PC is encountering problems when running demanding applications, like new games such as LA Noire, Skyrim and occasionally even old games. The BSODs that occur appear to be completely random to me, but I seem to be able to reduce crashes when reducing resolution from 1920x1080 to 1366x768. However, this is not satisfactory for this new pc which I bought because of its capabilities.The BSODs have got several different error names "PAGE FAULT IN NON PAGED AREA" and "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL". And came acros this site several times.I've tried several things, like a memory check (12h, no errors found), temperature log (60 �C stable on highest strain). Installed new drivers, deleted old ones and reinstalled. Reinstalled DirectX. Called the manufacturer, but they would like to repair the pc for free, but over 15 days. Preferably, I don't have to send away my pc, of course. Their and my guess would be that the power supply is not sufficient, if so, I would certainly know so for sure, so I can demand a better power supply. My installation: - 64-bit - The original installation - OEM-version - PC was bought three months back (november 2011) - I have not reinstalled Windows?

bought 3 weeks ago. Been crashing from day one one or two times a day.Ive tried to update the audiodrivers and the LAN-drivers but still BSODS. Most of the BSODS are memory_management but Ive gotten a few others (page fault in non paged area and pfn_list_corrupt)Ive also done the windows memcheck and found no errors.Unfortunately I cant use the perfmon to generate a report. I get an error and Ive tried the guide here making sure the right services are started and set to manual but I just cant get it to work.
I got a MEMORY_MANAGEMENT BSOD while browsing the internet yesterday, then some hours later, while playing a game, I got the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL one. The next day, I got another MEMORY_MANAGEMENT while watching a video. This is a new system, about 1 month old, so I'm pretty worried about this.I also noticed that I got some corrupted downloads in the last few days, though that could be a coincidence.After getting the second BSOD, I left the windows memory test running overnight, doing an extended test. It did two passes and found no errors. Chkdisk found nothing either. I noticed the WMI errors (event ID 10) in the event log around the same time that I got the BSOD and ran the script MS provides to fix it, though from everything I read it was probably a coincidence and unrelated to the BSOD. It did not happen again after I fixed it but it hasn't been long since I ran it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI think this all started after I did a RAM upgrade
It began with programs stopping (kernel32.dll, idon'tknowthenameanymore.dll)
But also games are just freezing after some time, mw2, ac, cod4. They all crash randomly.
Now sometimes the whole system freezes and I have to reset it.
Also, I get various BSOD's (ie IRQl not less or equal)
I think it has somethin to do with my memory,
I have 4 gb dual corsair 1066 kit combined with 2 gb Reaper 1066.
I am thinking of re-installing windows, because I didn't install it after the upgrade
Or do you guys think that the memory is corrupted?

For the past few months now my computer has been running very slowly, with programs constantly crashing and at least 3 times a day I get a BSOD, sometimes more.The blue screens always either read Memory_Management or Page_Fault_In_Non_Paged_Area,and bluescreenview says that ntoskrnl.exe is the culprit.I have no idea how to read these logs andBesides the BSODS, the computer just isn't performing as well as it should.Applications always stop working, pages in chrome randomly crash and where I used to be able to get 60+ FPS in games, I now barely manage 40-50. For some reason I am also unable to complete a windows update.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI filled out my system specs and am including the requested files as instructed (includes dump files). Since last week, I have gotten a few BSODs. All but one (0x1000008e KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED) were 0x000000c2 BAD_POOL_CALLER. Both types were apparently caused by Windows system files ntkrnlpa.exe and win32k.sys. There seems to be no correlation between them occurring and any particular software or action (have gotten them upon moving and renaming files, browsing the internet, and even while being absent from the PC). My drivers are all kept up to date; so are my windows updates. I hadn't installed any new hardware, drivers, or software for awhile (some time before the crashes began). I can't seem to relate it to anything else. I ran Memtest for 20 hours and there were no problems with my RAM at all. I have also run a few different hard drive testing utilities and they all showed both my drives to be completely fine. My hard drives also aren't in need of defragmenting. Additionally I have done thorough scans for viruses and malware with a couple different programs, but that came out to be clean as well. Also lately I have been getting some random slowdowns and even crashing with random programs (has happened with programs I use the most); I think this could be related. I'd like to know what could be causing the BSODs, how I could stop it, and if it might mean something fatal to some hardware or my data.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded my setup with an Asus M4A78LT-M mobo, Athlon II X4 640 processor and TakeMS 2x2GB 1333MHz DDR3 memory. After installing the parts I tried to boot to Windows but it always resulted in the same BSOD so I reinstalled my system. After installing Windows for the first time I had some problems downloading updates and I got a couple of BSOD's during the update process. I then thought the installation was faulty and reinstalled it again from a different DVD. Once again I got two BSOD's during the Windows update but after all updates and drivers had been installed the problems vanished and three days pass without any problems.
Today I was watching a movie from my computer and suddenly the computer made a BSOD. I rebooted, opened Event Viewer and got a BSOD again. I ran memtest for 6 hours and it passed 5 times without errors. I had set the memory timings to 9-9-9-24 and memory voltage to 1.5 after the first BSOD's a few days back to ensure they were running at the proper settings. Apparently it didn't work. The new processor consumes 25W more than my previous E5200 so maybe my 500W power can't keep up with it sometimes?
Random BSODs while playing WoW/TF2, browsing internet and my PC will start normally after like it never happened. This has happened more than four times now. Has even happened once on the desktop. It dumps files and I haven't been able to snag error codes. Either that or I need to write down codes frantically next time it happens. I run Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials frequently (though I haven't changed any settings and am not sure how to do more thorough scans.)
