BSOD 10 minutes in playing Empire: TW

And my MSinfo.Rar.

Crash was inconclusive.

Try running with your Command Rate set to 2T instead of 1T. You can change the command rate in the BIOS. Keep the first four timings as 7-8-7-24.

Also, did you do the steps for the SSD power cycle?

If you get to the point of doing the clean install, you may consider replacing the SSD with an HDD if the clean install does not fix the problems. See if it is an incompatibility issue with the SSD and some other hardware or drivers.

I'll tweak the ram tomorrow and let you know. No, I haven't done the power cycle but I'll try it when I tweak the ram. I'm thinking there's something wrong with windows booting on the ssd. It seems like boot files are all over the place or something. If the clean install doesn't help, I will definitely go back to the HDDs. I think I might try OCZ's forums.

Nothing has helped.
I'm going to attempt a secure erase and use different SATA cables with my SSD. Then reinstall windows freshly.

Sounds good. Not sure a secure erase is necessary, but that is your call. Just backup important data before proceeding.

Okay, thanks again, WRithziden. I'll check in. Because now, Windows gets stuck on Shutting Down AND I can't plug in External HDDs, win doesn't recognize them.

Can you use external drives in the recovery environment?
Advanced Boot Options

System Recovery Options

Copy & Paste - in Windows Recovery Console

Let me see if I can brb

BIOS recognized the external but I couldn't get into RE because it gave me another Windows Boot Manager error, attached above

What about getting to the recovery environment using an installation disc or repair disc?

OPTION TWO of System Recovery Options shows these steps.
