Random BSODs, Different Errors
Hey all,
My husband's computer is on the fritz. I can -fix- most issues (software or hardware), but I'm horrible at diagnosing. I have attached the requested zip file containing the PERFMON output and jcgriff2 collection. There are a few dump files from months ago in there, but you can see most of them are from this month.
The BSODs happen at completely random times. A few times have been while playing a game, sometimes when just browsing on Firefox, and once it blue screened while I was just shutting it down.
I have done the following so far:
- Ran checkdisk
- Ran a virus/spyware scan using AVG
- Ran the Windows diagnostic, it didn't find any errors (not very reliable, I know)
- Installed new NVIDIA drivers (GeForce 9500 GT)
- Pulled out and reseated all 4 RAM cards (6GB total - 2x1GB 2x2GB), checked power connections, video card seating, etc.
I did NOT run Memtest86 yet, I haven't had a chance to.
System info:
Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Retail)
The mobo, CPU, some RAM, and video card are from Dec 2008. PSU (700W) from May 2009. Hard drive from Aug 2009. Originally had XP Pro installed, wiped the drive completely and installed Windows 7 in June 2010.
Any help would be appreciated, I've tried looking at the dump files using Blue Screen View but I just really don't know what to look for.
Thank you!
