BSOD when idle, new system build
I just built a new system (specs below) and have been experiencing a number of issues. I was getting BSODs right off the bat and was able to find a bad RAM stick with memtest. I removed it and then the system seemed to be running fine. I was able to run prime95, furmark and 3dmark without any crashes. I have also been playing Crysis 3 at max settings and no issues there either. Also had the system OCed to 4.3GHz, but I have since taken it back to stock speed.
The problem seems to be whenever the system sits idle. It crashes overnight and while I am at work (approx every 12 hours). Dump files are pointing to hal.dll and ntoskrnl.exe. I ran the Windows Memory Diagnostics and found no issues.
Then I enabled the driver verifier and got BSOD before windows finished booting. The dump file pointed to ntoskrnl.exe. I have uploaded a zip with the dump files.
By systematically going through the various drivers in verifier, I seem to have narrowed at least part of the problem to grdrv.sys. I renamed grdrv.sys to disable it. Still BSODed over night after disabling that. 3 times between 11:56PM and 12:41AM.
I left memcheck running today while I'm at work to see if there are any additional errors, but it wasn't finding anything on the first 5-6 passes. After finding and removing the bad RAM module, I did not do a fresh install of everything. Should I? Could the bad RAM have corrupted something during Windows or driver installation?
Drivers are all up to date.
