Freeze then BSOD(error 0x0000004F & 9c) after 1-5 minutes of use
Hello all,
For several days now I have been dealing with a BSOD that occurrs between 1 and 5 minutes after starting up windows(safe and normal modes alike).
I need help finding the solution to this problem and am hoping the experts here can assist me with that.
I have Removed and swapped the 3 RAM sticks I have and they all appear to be working(ie the comp still froze after a few minutes) no matter what configuration with 2 of the 3 I had attatched.
Originally I was getting a 0x0000009c(screenshot here) BSOD error but after I logged and changed(in my short window before freezing) the Dump setting from Kernel to Minidump along with unchecking "automatically restart on crash" it changed to a 0x0000004F(screenshot here) error code and I have been getting the F4's ever since.
When doing ChkDsk at startup, it ALWAYS freezes on "CHKDSK is verifying indexes (stage 2 of 3)... 40 percent complete." Then after roughly 4 minutes I get a message saying an Unspecified Error occurred fixing $I30 (Screenshot HERE).
Boot disk 'fixers' do not do anything useful(Windows Memory Diagnostic(no probs detected), etc) and I have resorted to attempting an sfc /scannow /offbootdir=e:\ /offwindir=e:\windows and it begins, except after 1 minute to comes back saying "Windows Resource protection could not start the repair service."(and yes, the drive is right based on the boot disk detecting where windows OS was located and not my C drive where it is when I boot up). This seems coincidental since it halts roughly the same amount of time as the chkdsk on boot takes to at the 40% mark where it freezes.
In my short window before it freezes after startup, I did manage to verify the services.msc module was on manual(not sure if that matters to the boot disk sfc) and I am at a loss as to where to go from here.
