    BSOD and Reboots


    Started getting BSOD and random reboots after receiving the Falcon Northwest case and Motherboard/cpu combo from a friend and setting the rest of it up with Win 7 beta and hardware. Crashed the 2nd day I had it and every day since. Tried different drivers for all hardware, and overheating isnt a concern with the 6 case fans, new cpu fan running it at normal temps, as well as the video card within normal ranges.

    Unable to read the .dmp log and figured i'd come here for help. Much thanks in advance for any help possible.

    Apparently NTFS.SYS tripped DEP by attempting to write to a read-only (code) page. If it's caused by software, the most likely explanation is bad data being fed into NTFS by some type of attached driver (anti-virus being the usual culprit), or fairly severe file system metadata corruption. Suggestions:

    1) Update or remove (as a test) your AV solution.
    2) Full CHKDSK /R on all NTFS partitions.

    Hi slylock

    Also upgrade Win7 beta to Win7 RC, with clean install.

    By win 7 beta do you mean version 7000? In going thru the dump there are drivers as old as 2004 on the system.

    I seriously suggest an upgrade to 7600.

    I was messing around with different drivers to see if that could be the culprit, hence the older drivers. At the initial clean install I had all the most recent drivers available for each device.

    There is no AV on the machine at all. This problem started happening before I installed it, and I wasn't going to add more software to the mix until I got this resolved.

    The motherboard completely died yesterday as in won't turn on with different power supplies and no hardware plugged in. Will be getting an i7 solution and starting from scratch with a clean install.

    Thank you everyone for your help on this!
