Random BSOD's every 1-2 hours, error hal.dll
Hi guys, I've been getting this for over 3-4 months now.. and I have done a system restore twice and it's not helping.. the BSOD still lives. The BSOD occurs in a random fashion, even during browsing the internet with just a few tabs, sometimes during idle (happened a few times when I leave home and left my laptop idle)
I notice that every time the BSOD is about to appear, my laptop fan goes all noisy. Not sure if that actually has anything to do with it.
I've even tried running on Ubuntu and got crashes too.. although with no description.. it just froze.
Also when I tried to run perfmon /report, I get an error when trying to generate a report saying:
"An error occured while attempting to generate the report.
The wait for the report generation tool to finish has timed out. "
specs are:
ASUS G53 Sw 3D:
Intel Core i7 2630QM 2.0 Ghz (upto 2.9ghz Turbo Boost), 6MB L3 Cache
Win 7 Home Premium 64bit
8GB DDR3 Ram
NVIDIA GTX 460M 1.5GB
650GB SATA 5krpm
Bluray DVD Combo
Atheros Wireless Card
Realtek LAN Card
I have attached all the stuff I could think of relating to the BSODS:
