Windows 7: BSOD happening very frequently on laptop, stop error 0x00007A

Hi,



I am at my wit's end with my BSOD's on my gaming laptop. I have tried multiple fixes, but none of the fixes seem to work. It seems I have a BSOD if I leave my computer on long enough, and I receive the following:
****************
kernel_data_inpage_error

Stop: 0x00007A (0xFFFFF6FC40009798, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000000E, 0x00000001BAB28860, 0xFFFFF880012F3B00).


ntfs.sys - Address FFFFF880012F3B00 base at FFFFF88001204000. Datest amp 5040d4c6

****************

I hope I provided all the information that is needed to help solve this BSOD, and if not, let me know so I can edit the post.

Thank you everyone for your help!

Welcome to Seven Forums.

Configure the system to collect Small Memory Dumps (Minidumps) following this tutorial: Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD

Avast! contributes in BSOD's often. As a test please remove it using its removal tool from here: Uninstallers (removal tools) for common antivirus software - ESET Knowledgebase

We recommended Microsoft Security Essentials from a strict BSOD perspective. Is most compatible & provides most stability compared to other antivirus app/Internet Security Software.

• Microsoft Security Essentials, Free antivirus for windows
• Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free
• Good and Free system security combination

Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.

Make scans with the following:

-Kaspersky TDSSKiller

• Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller

-ESET online scanner

• Free Online Virus Scanner | ESET

Perform a System File Check to check the integrity of all protected Windows 7:

• Click Start Menu
• Click All Programs
• Click Accessories
• Right click Command Prompt
• Click Run as administrator
• Type
• Code:

  sfc /scannow

• and press Enter

Full tutorial here:

• SFC /Scannow Command - System File Checker

Check your hard drive(s) for errors by running chkdsk

• Check your hard disk for errors
• Disk Check

Upload a screenshot of your hard disk using CrystalDiskInfo:

• CrystalDiskInfo Standard Edition
• How to Upload and Post a Screenshot and File in Seven Forums

Make a hard drive test from the hard drive manufacturers website:

• Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure

Number down items at start-up. Keep only your anti-virus, this also improves the time for logging into windows.

• Startup Programs - Change
• Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.

• RAM - Test with Memtest86+

Let us know the results and further BSOD reports.

Hi,
thank you for the reply! I switched from Avast! to microsoft security and malwarebytes, but when I tried to do full scan, my laptop froze up. I tried to go to all programs on the start menu, but I think it said no memory, or nothing to show... anyway, that shouldn't happen!

So I restarted my computer in safe mode with command prompt to do the Scf scan. When it was finished, there were no errors. So right now, I am currently running the memtest86+ on my laptop. I will be sure to post the results later when it is finished.

Thank you and my picture of my harddrive should be in attachments

Keep us posted.

Thanks! I'll do that.

Also, I ran the memtest86 and I currently have 17 passes and 0 errors. I guess that's consider good and bad? Good that it's not the memory sticks, bad that I don't know what it is.

I'll exit out of it and reboot my laptop and change the caution to good.

thanks again!

Good news. Any BSOD's so far?

Good luck.

Actually I haven't had a blue screen yet! (thankfully!)
But I am still not sure about it, I'll keep an eye on it and leave it on for a little bit to see if any BSOD's occur.

thank you

Hi, an update! (and not a good one...)

I got another BSOD, but this time the stop code was different than the last.

Stop: 0x000000F4 (0x0000000000000003, 0xFFFFFA8009D7EB30, 0xFFFFFA8009D7EE10, 0xFFFFF800031D7470)

Well thank you for any help you can provide towards this new BSOD!

Need the files like you posted on your first post

Hi MOAVG

Do you recall this file IASTOR.SYS being listed in the BSOD ? If so that is your Intel SATA drivers .
