BSOD - ntoskrl.exe problem, error 0x0000009f
Hi
Firstly, many thanks for running this amazing forum! Judging by the number of posts and responses you give, this is a vital service!
So... I assembled PC a few weeks ago using a second hand intel motherboard and i3 but all all else new bits and all seemed ok for several weels but a couple of days the BSOD struck, and has been every day since. According to the minidump report ntoskrl.exe could be the culprit but from reading posts this could be for any number of reasons. I've done a bit of digging, and things that might be helpful are:
- I am using AVG antivirus 2012 free (but it ran with no BSOD for several weeks)
- I did have mismatched memory (2x1GB and 2x2GB) but I'm now (4x2GB) and BSOD has happened again
- I have an OEM version of Windows 7 pro which seemed to be legit. The activation was ok (after a couple of goes)
- I have updated the graphic card driver (geforce gt430) and it was working fine in another PC i built for several months
- BSOD does seem to occur following a recovery from a standby mode.
Many thanks in advance for any help.:)
