Windows 7: BSOD while idle, and when keyboard crashes (?) and during WoW

subtletuna · 11 Sep 2012

Hi,

I have kind of a weird issue. My computer will crash at random times when playing WoW. When it happens, my computer will kind of hang there, and everything will freeze except i can use my mouse, but about 1 min later i'll BSOD. When I BSOD, my POST hangs at a black screen before the MSI screen, where it says A2 in the bottom right corner, which changes to A3 eventually, then it loads.

When it crashes via my keyboard crashing, i'll randomly be typing (pretend the last key I hit was 'n') it will spam the 'n' button and nothing else, kind of like the drivers crashed. The only thing I can do is log out of windows, and as soon as I hit log out it crashes.

And the most obvious one, when I come back from work and my computer is on i'll sometimes come back to a BSOD, or a black screen that says an error has occurred.

I've attached the SF diagnostic results.

Thanks a lot

subtletuna · 12 Sep 2012

Thank you, I will do the above things and report back when/if i BSOD again (sometimes takes a few days)

**koolkat77** · 12 Sep 2012

Take your time. No problemo.

subtletuna · 14 Sep 2012

Finally got around to doing all this. What is the next step if I crash again?

**koolkat77** · 14 Sep 2012

We can say only after we see your next crash

subtletuna · 15 Sep 2012

Hi again,
My computer crashed last night while typing in WoW. (Keyboard style crash I mentioned in the original post). I've uploaded the new SF diagnostic results if it helps.

Thanks a lot

**koolkat77** · 15 Sep 2012

The dump does not provide any information so lets enable driver verifier to rule out buggy drivers.

Verifier puts extreme stress on the drivers, bad ones will cause BSOD. If we change all those drivers we hope for no more BSODs, If you get no BSODs, then its not a driver and we look to hardware. With verifier on your computer may be a little laggy, but actually..its just doing its work.

Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

Information
Driver Verifier runs in the background, "testing" drivers for bugs. If it finds one, a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) will result; the corresponding dump file will hopefully show the faulty driver.

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.

I did the above thing, and rebooted my computer.
My computer doesnt currently load up windows before it BSODs now. The BSOD happens right before the windows log in screen.
Im currently on my other hard drive on another copy of windows 7. How do i disable those changes from this HDD, and what's my next step?

Thanks again (you're super kind in helping me with this),

**koolkat77** · 15 Sep 2012

Whats the stop code? If its C4, thats normal. Just restart the computer manually.

If its something else, boot into safe mode, disable verifier, boot normally and upload the dump.
