getting BSOD after updates/drivers on fresh install (new machine)
Have been attempting to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on a newly built PC but begin to get BSODs after installing windows updates and drivers. I thought at first that it was due to the drivers.
The first install was with an older Windows 7 DVD, and I experienced the first BSOD (0xD1 I believe) after installing the graphics driver, dx10/11, wireless adapter driver, Avast! antivirus, Chrome, and some Windows Updates. Before installing the wireless driver and those other items the computer was able to be on for several hours w/out crashing.
Startup repair was unable to fix the issue, so I did a restore to just before installing the driver, and consequently avast!, chrome, and windows updates. BSOD again. Restored again and tried installing SP1 from disk. It errored at the end, presumably b/c the system wasn't updated enough. Restored again.
Installed the ethernet driver and ran a wired network connection. Downloaded the 100+ updates and was installing them when the system crashed once again. The only thing installed was the graphics driver, dx10/11 and ethernet driver.
From here I used an AIO iso w/ updates through last week, so only five updates were needed, followed by .net framework 4. After installing the graphics driver, dx10/11 and the ethernet driver I downloaded and installed the first five updates as well as installed avast and chrome. After restarting it prompted me to download and install the microsoft .net framework 4, where it promptly BSODed again.
Usually when it BSODs, it tries to perform startup repair, which only works about half the time. The other half of the time it falls into a loop of prompting for normal startup or startup repair, choosing startup repair, starting to load windows files, then restarting and dumping you at the choice screen again. I shut it down for a few hours and start again, where it lets me boot normally. It will work for a few minutes or more, then BSOD and the same loop.
Attached are the minidumps and perfmon report (I also have two minidumps from the previous attempt at installation, if needed). Please help! Is it one of the couple drivers installed? I originally thought it was a driver support issue w/ the outdated version of Windows, but it is virtually up to date and still having problems. The .net framework 4 perhaps? I know there are some issues w/ this update. The system is currently restored to just before installing that update, with everything else updated. It is on for the moment, waiting to see if it crashes... Thank you in advance!!
