    There seems to be quite a few driver issues, including your graphics card driver again, most of the drivers belong to your motherboard, if the system continues to crash after updating all these drivers, then I believe you either have a PSU problem or a bad motherboard; the nVidia chipset is known to cause a few problems.

    If you followed the steps to get a perfect baseline Clean Reinstall then you have not changed out any drivers other than those given when you ran all rounds of Important and Optional Windows Updates, after enabling Automatically deliver drivers via Windows Update (Step 3).

    Now however Harry has identified drivers that are not working correctly, so it is okay to import the latest driver from the Support Downloads webpage for each device he identified.

    If you didn't follow the Best Practices for reinstall and already changed out those drivers from the ones Win7 wants, then I would do the reinstall over correctly this time.

    I did a baseline clean install and still had the issue. MSI approved an RMA request. Before I pay for shipping to send it back (and go a month without my desktop), is this a good route for me to follow? BlueRobot said it's likely a PSU problem or a mobo problem, but this has happened on two separate PSUs, which leaves only the mobo.

    A quick recap of everything I've tried so far (I'll probably forget something though):

    • RAM
      • Tried each stick individually and in different slots, blue screens continued.
    • PSU
      • Issue persisted with two separate PSUs
    • GPU
      • Issue persisted with two separate GPUs (one NVidia and one AMD)
    • Wireless Card
      • Upgraded wifi driver, issue persisted (and broke Steam). Had to revert back.
      • If I can find a cheap(ish) 5GHz PCI card upgrade, I can upgrade this if it could possibly be the problem.
    • SSD
      • Firmware is up-to-date
      • Diagnostics passed
    • HDD
      • Diagnostics passed
    • Disc Drive
      • Nothing
    • OS
      • True clean install


    EDIT: Forgot to attach latest dump.

    It was the same Stop 0xA BSOD as before, but with only the nVidia graphics card driver being blamed this time.

    Thanks for the recap, you've tested everything and performed hardware swaps, therefore I feel it's most likely a bad motherboard.

    Alright, I'll prepare it to be shipped to MSI for RMA on Monday. I'll report back with my results in a month (or whenever they get the board back to me).

    Thank you so much, all of your help means SO MUCH to me!

    Got the mobo back yesterday, and the second time it rebooted it crashed again. It's now crashed more times in the last 24 hours than it had before I sent it in. 7 dumps are in the attached zip file.

    I've also attached the chkdsk /r report from the run I just did overnight on my HDD. Haven't run one on my SSD.

    I also found this line in my event viewer logs; it's the only error related to the time since I got the mobo back.

    Code:
    The platform firmware has corrupted memory across the previous system power transition.  Please check for updated firmware for your system.
    Also, several of the times they occurred the screen said the problem was Ntfs.sys, but the dumps don't reflect that.

    I've seen that Event Log error before, it can either refer to the firmware for your SSD or the BIOS.

    Check for any BIOS updates:

    Code:
    3: kd> !sysinfo machineid
    Machine ID Information [From Smbios 2.7, DMIVersion 39, Size=2237]
    BiosMajorRelease = 4
    BiosMinorRelease = 6
    BiosVendor = American Megatrends Inc.
    BiosVersion = V1.11
    BiosReleaseDate = 10/31/2012
    SystemManufacturer = MSI
    SystemProductName = MS-7693
    SystemFamily = To be filled by O.E.M.
    SystemVersion = 2.0
    SystemSKU = To be filled by O.E.M.
    BaseBoardManufacturer = MSI
    BaseBoardProduct = 970A-G46 (MS-7693)
    BaseBoardVersion = 2.0
    Since you have a SSD:

    writhziden said:
    If you have an SSD, make sure the following are up to date:
    • SSD firmware
    • BIOS Version
    • Chipset Drivers
    • Hard disk controller drivers/SATA drivers
    • If you have a Marvell IDE ATA/ATAPI device, make sure the drivers are up to date from the Intel site or Marvell site and not from your motherboard/vendor support site.

    Updated chipset driver and BIOS (and downgraded from beta to WHQL GPU driver), now have a guaranteed blue screen within 60 seconds of logging in. Sometimes it's ~5 seconds after login, sometimes a full minute, but it happens without fail now. Only happens when I log in--sitting at the login screen does not cause a BSOD. Got lucky and had enough time to grab the dumps and put them in Dropbox to upload from my laptop.

    EDIT: Managed to get REALLY lucky and the crash held off long enough to install the wifi card update. Will edit post to inform whether that fixes the problem.... Problem persists. Also going to see if I can get Driver Verifier running, especially since the crashes are now so regular.

    EDIT 2: Driver Verifier caught one. It's attached.

    Have you checked for any driver updates for your AMD SATA ACHI driver? I would firstly check the motherboard support page and then the AMD support page.

    Most of your dump files seem to point to driver related issues, for example threads waiting upon the completion of IRPs, which don't get completed or not completed in time.
