Windows 8.1 Crashing Before Finishing Install?

Aug 30, 2013

I'm having a problem with Windows 8.1 ...... I have got the MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.8.1.RTM.X64.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT, downloaded it a second time to make sure it wasn't corrupt. I run the install, clean system, it goes through the install fine. When it gets to the first getting drivers ready screen, it's crashes with an IRQ error. Now this only happens on my computer, has installed fine on another test system. I'm running an Asrock X79 Extreme4-M mother board, with 32 gig 1866 ram, intel i7 3820, setting in the bios have been set to default UEFI. Windows 8 installs fine, but 8.1 crashes every time.

Win 8.1 Crashing Whenever Install Incompatible Software

Mar 30, 2014

Last time it was a sound enhancer called SRS Audio Sandbox. That was one of at least 4 unrecoverable crashes I've had in the last 2 weeks. Usually when trying to, or after installing incompatible(which I didn't know until the crash) software. I've installed DFX Audio Enhancer successfully for a while until it starts to cripple my games' performance. Then I have to uninstall it. But at least this one doesn't cause an unrecoverable crash.

Why don't the Windows 8.1 recovery options work? I click on one of them and nothing happens, so I have to reinstall Windows 8.1 all over again.

Debugging :: BSOD - Windows 8.1 Keeps Crashing?

Sep 15, 2014

We have a computer we're running Windows 8.1 Pro, which keeps crashing - typically overnight, and typically when we're running large computational simulations.

I have been working on parsing the WinDBG outputs, and finally got to:

Probably caused by : GenuineIntel

But before that, I see:

BugCheck 124, {0, ffffe0011caf8028, be000000, 100110a}
***** Kernel symbols are WRONG. Please fix symbols to do analysis.

But I am not 100% sure what I'm looking at. In WinDBG I am pretty sure I've succesfully pointed the symbol path to download symbols correctly from msdn.

So we ran "dm log collector", the ZIP is attached.

p.s. We do have a large RAID drive attached via USB3; connecting that seemed to correlate to the start of these crashes, but that might be wishful correlation seeking.

Windows 8.1 Keeps Crashing - Error 0xc0000001

Jul 1, 2014

My new build with windows 8.1 installs fine but keeps crashing not even long enough to create account.

The specs for my pc are:

AMD A8-6600k 3.90GHz
TeamGroup Vulcan ORANGE 8gb (2 x 4gb)
Gigabyte F2A88XM-HD3 AMD 88X
Kingston 120gb SSD
Superflower 300w Power Supply

When i first installed windows it worked for an hour or two then crashed, but now keeps crashing after minutes, and get the error code 0xc0000001 on startup.

Heres what i have tried so far:

Reinstalled windows 8.1 on same ssd and also tried it installed on a different HDD

Made sure cpu was correctly seated and checked everything is correctly connected.

Swapped RAM for another set which i know works from another computer

Flashed Bios to latest version

Run a cpu stress tests using UBCD which gave no errors

even tried installing windows 7 which still does the same

The pc never crashes in bios or when using UBCD.

Debugging :: Windows 8 Crashing Every 5 Minutes?

Aug 23, 2014

Every five minutes I recieve the BSOD and it says critical_process_died. The weird thing is, I reset my computer back to factory settings and as soon as I booted it did it again... I got my computer to work for like 10 minutes and as soon as I thought it stopped for good, it did it again.

My PC sometimes crashes during bootup too.

Edit: I was just downloading something and halfway in it said something like "Failed to download and install files". Then the taskbar in the bottom of my screen disapeared and my computer got the BSOD saying "Critical_Process_Died"...

Graphic Cards :: AMD Drivers Keeps Crashing In Windows 8

Mar 15, 2013

Ever since I installed Windows -8 Pro ( 64 bit ) on my MultiMonitor system, all my screens go black with following error message.

" AMD Drivers stopped Responding & has Recovered"

It happens so many times an hour that I had to stop usingWindows -8 completely. Even the worst thing is that if I have more than one harddrive & driver crashes, then on next reboot my system automatically startsdisk checking which takes hours for a 3.0 GB slave HDD. I never had thisproblem with Windows -7 using the same system.

My system configuration is as follows.

Dell T-7500 Workstation.
Intel Xeon E5645 2.4GHz
12 GB DDR3 RAM
AMD Fire Pro 2460 Video Cards ( 3 of them. Each supports 4Monitors )
12 Dell 24 inch ( 1920x1200) Monitors

I downloaded AMD Drivers for workstation & FirePro 2460Video card from following AMD Links.

AMD has not updated Drivers since December 2012.

Setup Installation :: Windows 8 Crashing After Several Minutes?

Jan 25, 2013

My partner's PC decided to start acting up on windows xp, so after a few attempts to fix it we decided to go down the windows 8 option since it was on special offer at the time. After a few installations failed to boot properly (i.e. they'd install and then crash) we did a complete format and reinstall. As it stands we can get into windows 8, it works fine for a few minutes and then it crashes (no BSOD, just a freeze, no mouse movement etc). We've tried a couple of fixes (ran "bcdedit /set disabledynamictick no" and yes in cmd and refreshing the install) unfortunately nothing seems to stop it from crashing 3-5 minutes into the boot.

Specs are as follows

ASROCK N68C-S UCC (flashed to 1.6 latest bios)
AMD Phenom 8550 2.2ghz triplecore
4 GB nonspecific memory (2x2GB
ATi 5770 Gfx
Samsung 350gb hard drive
TP-LINK TL-WN851ND Wireless card
430W Corsair Power supply

Audio :: Sound Crashing Several Times A Day On Windows 8.1

May 18, 2014

There is a very annoying issue with my Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit. For some unknown reason sound stops working several times a day. Audio usually crashes when I start, pause/unpause or stop a video (XBMC, KMPlayer, Youtube), music, game, or anything that involves sound. The only thing what can make audio work again is restarting Windows Audio Service.

This crash does not happen in every case, only several times a day.

One more interesting symptom: when I listen to music on foobar2000 and audio crashes, then the playback of music doesn't stop, sound is still working (only on foobar2000, anywhere else it stops), but I cannot change the volume inside foobar2000. Once I stop the music stream and try to start it again, then the sound does not work at all in foobar2000 either.

This problem exists on laptop's built in speaker, audio jack and HDMI output too. Interesting though, when sound is on HDMI output and crashes, Windows system sounds (such as sound for UAC prompt) are still working, but they are outputted to the built in laptop speaker.

My laptop is ASUS K55VJ

Previously I had Windows 8 installed, it didn't have the issue. This is a clean Windows 8.1 install, not an upgrade from Windows 8. Reinstallation of drivers does not work.

Debugging :: Windows 8.1 Crashing When Waking From Sleep

Mar 10, 2014

I had a problem a few months ago on Windows 8.1 I was unable to solve so I reinstalled windows 8 and was able to put my computer to sleep and wake again. Upon re-updating to Windows 8.1 I once again have the problem of a crash when trying to come out of sleep.

I tried Windows 8.1 again because of hardware changes that allowed me to uninstall a few outdated drivers, but that did not fix the problem. What may be causing it to crash when trying to wake?

Apps / Software :: Windows 8 Video Player Keeps Crashing?

Mar 5, 2014

I don't know what's wrong but every time I try to play a video in the preinstalled video player it crashes. It'll open the video and even play it but between every 8 to 10 minutes it shuts down and brings me back to the start screen and I have to reopen the video and find where I was. I know it's not the video files themselves because it's happening on every video and I can watch the entire video, I just have to reopen it multiple time and find the spot it shut down on. I could use a different program but it's my favorite video player and I'd like to fix it if I could.

I have been happily using Windows 8, until today.

Debugging :: Windows 8.1 Crashing While Playing Online Games

Sep 15, 2014

My computer has been crashing mostly while playing Guild Wars 2 and Archeage. It will crash, go to a weird colored screen, and I have to manually shut it off. I did a memtest and everything checked out, and I also tried switching the power supply out with one that wasn't having any problems and that didn't work either. I've also tried playing the games on the lowest settings and it still doesn't really work.

Debugging :: Windows Computer Crashing And Reboot Each Hour

Aug 15, 2014

About 6 days ago my computer started to crash (as in no shutdown sequence, just straight off) and reboot on the hour, every hour. So 11am, 12pm, 1pm on the dot.

I tried memtest to see if it was a memory issue and it ran for 3 hours with no errors. Safe mode is not effected so it seems to be specific to windows proper.

Here are the main details about the error:
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION 0x0000003b Caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe

There was a weird error message in task scheduler as well, which I have posted in the screenshots below.

I have also attached the logs and a dump from blue screen view.

Graphic Cards :: Intel GMA3600 - Metro Crashing In Windows 8

Oct 28, 2012

I see that many Cedar Trail devices (Intel Atom N2600 with Intel GMA 3600/Power SGX545) run Windows 8 quite well due to its dual core architecture. However, when using the Intel's currently supplied GMA 3600 driver (dated 1/2012), all Windows 8 Metro apps crash when attempting to run them. I cold use Microsoft's default display driver, but with that one, I'm limited to 1024 x 768 and sleep won't work.

So far, there is no word from Intel on whether new GMA 3600 drivers for Windows 8 will emerge. Asus thinks that new drivers will never be possible. However, it appears that some Atom Z2760 devices like Acer's W510 may be powered by GMA 3600 / SGX545 after all. Of note, Samsung's Z2760-powered Series 5 tablet has some Intel GMA drivers available for Windows 8 via this link.

I figured I'd try them on a Fujitsu Q552, which has GMA 3600. The error message I get with Windows 8 Pro RTM is "this driver does not support this version of Windows" which seems weird given that I'm running Windows 8 Pro.

I'm not sure if the INF can be modified to support Cedar Trail devices, particularly since the GPU appears to be the same, albeit at a different clock speed (just like GMA500 vs. GMA600). I remember seeing this about some modded drivers that XDleader555 made for GMA500/600 -- interestingly, some versions of EMGD drivers (like 1.10) seem to work well with GMA500 devices like Fujitsu's UH900 with Windows 8, in my experience.

Summary of Links:
Intel's GMA 3600 Driver for Windows 7: Link
Samsung Series 5 Slate GMA Driver for Windows 8: Link

Debugging :: Windows 8 Asus PC Keeps Crashing With BSOD Due To Unknown Reasons

Jul 10, 2014

I have a Asus pc, that has been crashing all the time due to unknown reasons. I have experienced that as soon as it hangs due to some process that is taking some time, it usually ends with a BSOD. I can let the computer alone and when I come back it has crashed, apparently for no reason, since I have not been using it for anything.

It crashes and gives the BSOD for many different reasons, I don't have the complete overview of all the reason, but above two listed reasons are the most significant. I have been using WhoCrashed, but does seem to get anywhere with the information provided by this. The PC is a new laptop.

I have followed the instruction and I'm uploading the zip file created by SF Diagnostic Tool.

Gaming :: ARMA 3 Crashing / Display Driver Error / Windows 8.1 AMD Radeon

Aug 1, 2014

When I start A3, it boots up just fine, then when I try to start a campaign/showcase mission or Multiplayer server, the screen starts getting horizontal lines jumping on the screen/blurred blocks sometimes as well, and then my computer either freezes up or automatically restarts, sometimes I can close ARMA n goto desktop but that gets whacked out as well doing the same thing basically on my homescreen. It then proceeds to do the same thing to me when I'm just on the desktop trying to open Google Chrome or any other task for that matter, still getting the "Display Driver Has Stopped Responding and Has Recovered" in the bottom right corner of Windows.

I've literally tried everything regarding troubleshooting this matter and to no success: Updating Drivers/Windows, Tweaking Catalyst CC settings, Disabling Hibernation, Even Refreshing the PC (Windows 8.1), Booting in Safe Mode (MSConfig), scanned for Viruses, complete Reinstall of ARMA 3, ... This has been driving me crazy the last few days and cannot figure out for the life of me why it is doing this now?? ARMA 3 was running great the first 4 or 5 months I've had it and has never had issues like this, it seems it all started after trying to join a server Online and then it crashed and froze and has been doing this Display Driver Error stuff ever since (I did recently download new Mods as well).. Do complete PC Reset is necessary? I mean after the PC Refresh, my desktop and everything else was running amazingly fast and smooth, everything was up to date, I re-installed ARMA 3 and tried again to play this morning, sadly the same errors occurred and Lines are jumping all over my screen and everything is lagging. (

Well here is my PC info:

AMD FX-Series FX-6300 (3.50GHz)

Windows 8.1 64Bit

I've gone into task manager and can't find any program that would be using these fonts.

PC Slowing Down / Freezing And Crashing?
