    That's good.

    Post screenshots of both your SSD and HDD using CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World.

    Dont run Seatools on the SSD, those conventional disc check tools test the spinners only, not the solids. And when you run seatools for DOS on the HDD, dont forget to follow the caution for AHCI users.

    All nice!

    A stop 0xF4 is mostly a storage environment related error. And crash dumps are pretty silent about it. So the possible places to check for the cause are .... (items in green are done):

    • An outdated SSD firmware, checked, not the case.
    • Failing Discs, checked, apparently not the case.
    • A storage controller ... it is msahci, so beyond any suspect.
    • Bad cabling, loose SATA connection .... need to check.
    • Physically hampered storage port .... need to check.
    • A storage filter of an antivirus program.
    • A virus itself blocking storage functions.
    • Failing memory, which can cause any sort of issue.

    I would suggest you to open the computer and re-seat the devices like RAM, Graphics card and discs. While re-seating, make it sure that the discs are tightly held with the stand and there is no loose screw.
    Apply new SATA cables there, and attach the discs to other unused SATA ports on the motherboard.

    Then wait and observe for any further BSOD. Report us accordingly.

    Hello,
    I am not familiar with them

    • Physically hampered storage port .... need to check.
    • A storage filter of an antivirus program.
    • A virus itself blocking storage functions.

    Can you explain in detail ?

    Remove Kaspersky for now and install MSE(Microsoft Security Essentials).

    Will do.
    But i had system crash on Ubuntu 14.10 as well as hackintosh 10.10.2 which i used past weeks.
    So i think it might be hardware related, not sure though.

    Service Type:  kernel mode driver

    Service Account:
    This driver is found in many applications using the WingRing libraries, and is a known cause of BSOD on some systems.

    Having seen some bazrre entries in the system event log, I had a look at the system a bit deeper, I note the following:

    System Manufacturer:       Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

    And I find myself wondering how you managed to install an ASUS OEM licence onto a system with a retail Gigabyte motherboard.
