Hello again,
After memtest86+ running overnight (resulting in 10 full passes) on all my ram, it yielded nothing (no errors). Today I had shut off my computer in the morning after memtesting and didn’t turnn it on until night time, so it would have had a good whole day (like 12 hours) to ‘cool off’. I booted and checked the voltages and they were pretty much the same as my previous image. Then I managed to get to my desktop and go on the internet...for about 15 mins, then I got a bluescreen with error code STOP 0x00000024. I rebooted and went right in to my bios again to check the voltages and they were the same.
One of my hard drives is a 2tb drive, not a 200gb drive (WD2001FASS -> 2 TB Caviar Black). I’ve been using a partition on my 2tb drive as my system drive since I first installed win7. If it matters, I have a winXP partition on my 320gb drive, though last time this happened, I’d get bluescreens in there too.
I’m not sure if patch KB977178 would relate due to how long I’ve been using it with no issues before. I am also pretty certain I’ve never seen a 0x00000077 or 0x000000F4 on a bluescreen (I’ve been taking pictures of them with a camera to keep track. ) STOP 0x0000007A however I think I've seen them.
Vir Gnarus, is there any way to test a motherboard? I think if I find a way to consistently produce a bluescreen on demand, then it would be pretty good evidence on what is going on.
Edit:
Oh, now this is something new and potentially interesting.
When I got the latest bluescreen mentioned above, I said I rebooted and then went in to my bios to check the voltages. Once I did, I got out of the hardware monitor and went to exit, but I actually didn’t exit….just left the “exit and discard changes” option highlighted. Then I went to go to my other computer (which is totally beating my main computer in terms of longevity ) to write my last post. When I submitted my post and checked back on my main computer... my bios had frozen, I couldn’t change option, press enter, or do anything.
