    BSOD and computer freezing seemingly randomly


    Hello,

    I have started having problems with BSOD and freezes exactly two weeks ago. It seems to happen randomly, sometimes while the PC is booting, sometimes it runs well for a few minutes and then crashes with a BSOD. Also, the display driver crashes more often ever since I have started having those problems.

    The system is about a year and half old. Two weeks ago, I ensured that my drivers were all up-to-date and ran a disk check and some RAM tests and I thought that I had found the source of the problem, because while testing the RAM, I had found some errors on one of them. Unfortunately, I am encountering the same problems today, and I can't find any error while testing the RAM.

    Here is my system:
    OS: Windows 7 Professional x64 Full Retail
    Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition
    Motherboard: ASUS M4A78T-E ATX 790GX Socket AM3 DDR3 2PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 2PCI HDMI Video Sound GBLAN
    RAM: OCZ3P1333LV4GK 2GB DDR3-1333 PC3-10666 CL 7-7-7-20 Dual Channel X 3
    Graphics card: EVGA E-GEFORCE GTX 285 648MHZ 1024MB 2.484GHZ GDDR3
    HDD: Western Digital WD1001FALS
    Wireless card: Trendnet TEW-643PI

    The last BSOD occurred this afternoon, with BCCode d1, and I also had a few problems two weeks ago with BCCode 116. I seem to be running out of options to find the problem with the knowledge I have. Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    The most recent few were caused by sptd.sys

    Please remove any CD visualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%.

    They use a driver, found in your dmp, called sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs.

    Use this SPTD uninstaller DuplexSecure - Downloads DuplexSecure - FAQ

    when you're done you can use this Freeware MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM(MagicDisc) in its place.

    How To Find Drivers:
    - search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
    - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
    - - The most common drivers are listed on this page: Driver Reference http://www.carrona.org/dvrref.html
    - - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: http://www.carrona.org/drvrdown.html

    Thank you.

    I have tried updating every driver listed, but some of them seemed to be updated to the latest version. I have also removed Daemon Tools. However, I am still getting random freezes and BSOD, the latest one with BCCode a1 after trying to close a tab in Google Chrome 14.0.835.163 ...

    I have attached the latest report after today's crash, if you have any ideas?
