Three BSODs within the past few days

I did a clean installation back in... January, I think? The problems started in mid-March. As part of my troubleshooting with Galaxy, I did swap out my GPU with my older Radeon HD 5450 (after hardcore uninstalling all of the NVidia drivers first), but it still blue screened.

I never marked it explicitly here (for some reason), but I believe the dump from this earlier post happened while the old card was in.

EDIT: Took the screenshot, forgot to post it. Also attached a dump that just happened.

DOUBLE EDIT: Another dump posted....

The 5V and the 12V rails don't look normal to me, it could either be the program not reporting the voltages right or a bad PSU. Does anyone know how the good the reputation of Cooler Master is?

The two drivers are still being blamed:

Code:

The Microsoft Network Inspection System Driver seems to be being blamed in the raw stack text:

Code:

Hum my own experience with Coolermasters have not been too bad in fact I would buy them if I were not an out and out Corsair person.
I am curious to know what volts are being reported by the BIOS and as well why not get get a good multimeter and test them using the tutorial PSU - Jump Start bbut care must be taken anywhere near the PSU casing itself!!

Thanks for the information, and checking the voltages will be much more reliable, as well as, a multimeter to measure the voltages.

Yeah Blue but remember that correct volts don't necessarily mean correct current unfortunately.

Think of it like a car that has 12-13v showing on the meter but has no current capacity for turning th engine over :)

ON thing you can do Icefall is get something like this Power Meter – Measure Energy Consumption and Cost | Steplight if you want to be able to work out what the machine/s are pulling in watts.

Just because the PSU is say a 500 watt rating dos not mean it is pulling that all the time it depends on the usage of the machine at the time so at high end gaming use for example the PSU might have to belt out 450 watts but at idle it can fall back to 200 watts. :)
