Various BSOD error messages I have been getting various seemingly unrelated BSOD messages recently and was hoping someone would hopefully be able to help me.
I have ran memtest on my RAM and after 7 tests it showed up no errors
I have re-installed windows but still having issues since.
Hopefully someone can help,
Cheers in advance. | My System Specs |

Welcome
We did not get the very important dmp reports, but if you have the same issue after reinstall its a hardware isssue.

OK, you did good with the reports. It usually takes more than a few dumps to get a definitive answer, but yours are pointing toward this driver. Update or remove the software. You may want to start with a System Restore point, before each software that you remove so that they can be reinstalled, if another cause is the actual problem

I misunderstood the article that you originally posted, and that is the file that it said to use and it made the computer crash, after that i re-read and then realized what I had to do to create the dmp file.
So unfortunately Myfault.sys isn't the issue.
Thank you for your time so far | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Profession 64Bit |

Your very welcome. If that is not the driver, we need to continue to test. We do not have enough reports, yet to make a definitive conclusion. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 420 OS Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, clean install, upgrade disc CPU Intel Core2 processsor Q8200(2.33Ghz 1333FSB) Quad Core Tech Motherboard Dell Memory 6 gb Graphics Card ATI Radeon 256MB HD3650 Sound Card Intergrated 7.1 Channel Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dell SP2009W 20" Keyboard Dell USB Keyboard Mouse Dell Premium Optical USB Cooling Fan Hard Drives 640 GB Serial ATA Hard drive Internet Speed DSL 2.85 |

Thank you again.
I am about to run Drive Detective as well. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Profession 64Bit |

Hinted at a driver.
Use driver verifier Driver Verifier I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).
In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .
Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.
Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).
If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.
