    Computer either BSOD's after start-up, or runs fine


    So my computer seems to have about a 2/3 chance of BSODing in the first few minutes of running. After that, I encounter almost zero problems, aside from some weird issue with Windows Update (I haven't been able to install any updates), but that's for another thread. The BSOD seems to show one of two errors, so I'll post both here.

    Before that though, I also want to say that I did have some weird problems with this computer previously, probably due to OS corruption, but I'm currently running a very fresh install, with not a whole lot on it. The weird thing is, it still looks like OS corruption, and you'll see why in at least one of the two BSOD codes. The installation disc actually had a bit of trouble unloading its files properly, because it said files were missing a few times before installing. I have a friend who had the same issue with Win7 though, so I don't think that's as out-of-the-ordinary as it sounds.

    Anyways, the BSOD stuff:
    This one says there's a memory management error.
    Code:
    Problem signature:
      Problem Event Name:	BlueScreen
      OS Version:	6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
      Locale ID:	1033
    
    Additional information about the problem:
      BCCode:	1a
      BCP1:	0000000000000031
      BCP2:	FFFFFA8006308410
      BCP3:	FFFFF88000BD7000
      BCP4:	FFFFF8A001A342B6
      OS Version:	6_1_7600
      Service Pack:	0_0
      Product:	256_1
    This BSOD says there's a problem with ntsf.sys
    Code:
    Problem signature:
      Problem Event Name:	BlueScreen
      OS Version:	6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
      Locale ID:	1033
    
    Additional information about the problem:
      BCCode:	24
      BCP1:	00000000001904FB
      BCP2:	FFFFF88007C58A78
      BCP3:	FFFFF88007C582D0
      BCP4:	FFFFF88001319173
      OS Version:	6_1_7600
      Service Pack:	0_0
      Product:	256_1
    While looking at the text document I have with these things in it, I noticed that the additional codes were different for each instance of the BSOD. I won't post those unless that becomes necessary though.

    Looks like hardware issues but without the dumps, it's a guess. The 0x1A is memory corruption from a read stream. Perhaps from disk. 0x24 is a NTFS file error. Given those, it appears you have a corrupt disk. Try running chkdsk /r and let Windows schedule the autochk at reboot (for drive C). After that, run SFC /scannow from an elevated command prompt to verify system files and the registry.

    Forgot to mention: After the disk problem is fixed, you need to update Windows. There's critical updates in SP1 that are essential to Windows functions.
