Intermittent BSOD On Bootup nvlddmkm.sys
Hi,
Hope fully someone can help me, I have a system with the following specs
Coolermaster M1000 Silent Pro 1,000w
Gigabyte X58A-UD3R
Intel Core i7 920
3 x 2gb OCZ Gold DDR3
MSI NVidia GeForce GTX580 Lightning
Intel X25-M 80gb SSD (for os)
2 x 500gb WD Barricudas RAID0
Creative X-FI Fatality Sound Card
Windows 7 x64 Pro (retail)
The components aren't very old maybe 18m for the processor, mem and board, psu and gpu are less than a year.
Everything has been running fine until recently when I noticed that when I updated my GPU driver some of the components failed to install and when I rebooted I got the BSOD.
I system restored back to a previous version 280.26 and it booted okay, so I went into safe mode done a driver sweeper and tried to reinstall 285.27 again.. same problem.
I done the same proceedure and tried to get a different version of the driver in 280.36 and im getting the same issue again so I'm thinking a possible hardware failure.
One other point I'd like to share is a few days ago my machine just turned itself off for no apparent reason and when I restarted it I could smell burning. I dont know whether that is related but thought you should know.
Hope someone can help.
Dumps etc are attached.
Thanks for your help.
