    Lenovo G550 Laptop BSOD STOP 0x000000F4 won't boot


    I have been trying to fix a friends Lenovo G550 running Windows 7 Home Premium. The laptop won't boot and gives BSOD error "STOP: 0x000000F4 (0x00000003, 0x887925C8, 0x88792734 ...)" the codes in brackets change each time. It then does a crash dump and reboots.

    There has been no new hardware or programs installed recently (apparently).

    These are the steps I have taken:
    Boot in all versions of Safe Mode (same BSOD).
    Boot to Last Known Good Config (same BSOD).
    Windows Startup Repair (can't solve problem reboots to BSOD).
    Windows Restore (can't restore).
    Windows Memory Diag (no problem found).
    Removed one stick of RAM boot (BSOD), replace and remove other stick of RAM boot (BSOD).
    Remove and reseat HDD.

    My instinct tells me it is a HDD fault. Does anyone have any other suggestions or is the next reasonable step to buy a replacement HDD and reinstall Windows?

    Thanks in advance.
