BSOD! I need help!

[CreepinDeth]

Hi.

Just recently my computer has crashed and booted up a couple of times.
I didn't really think much of it. Well, today its been happening again. Only
this time it happened several times. At this point I would say about 4 times
on it own. I then began to look up the issue, and noticed more problems and
my computer freezing and having problems as I obtained the files that are
requested through the SF Diagnostic tool. So im hoping I can get some help.

One note, as I tired to get the files, at one point it froze and I restarted it
and obtained the needed files. I hope that really doesnt change anything.

Thanks!

Welcome
Certainly had a lot of BSODs, leaning toward memory or other hardware, but take the driver verifier to rule out drivers and give us more confidence that its hardware.

Driver Verifier

I'd suggest that you firstbackup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer soyou can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so youcan restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).

In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....AllPrograms...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vistayou'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer"option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click"Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click"Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click"Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.

Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to useyour system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do thatrepeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier isstressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for atleast 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from yourinstallation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that youcreated.

Okay. Sounds good. I'll try to do this, and keep you updated.

Thanks
