BSOD on fresh instal. Prob. hardware issue.

Hello,

A while back i posted a thread for help, unfortunately i cleaned the computer before hand with cc cleaner, so all logs where gone. BSOD occured randomly while using the computer. Only browsing etc, no gaming or heavy programs.

Because of deleting all the logs i decided to update all drivers, clean the pc and try again. (The computer is not mine, parents in law. They only use it for internet.)

They told me it was still getting BSOD, so i decided to give it a fresh install.

I installed an MSDN version of Windows 7 Professional with a legal key. The computer ran without any problems, updating drivers untilll suddenly a BSOD occured. The fresh installation was only 10 hours old, with a total use of maybe 2 hours.

I now installed a 86x OS, before the clean install it ran a 64x OS of Windows 7. It only has 3GB of memory.

Anyone have an idea of what the problem could be? I think it hassomething to do with the hardware.

Thank you in advance!

Update your CPU driver.

I tried running the intel tool for updating drivers but it says all drivers are up to date. Could it have anything to do with the system was initially a 64x Vista and now a 86x Windows 7?

Tried downloading the drivers manually. But the website also shows there are no drivers.
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/pro...z-800-MHz-FSB-

I think it means that the driver isn't compatible with Windows 7.

But in that case when i visit the intel website, there should be a download link for vista? It gives me no download link at all...

I would find it very strange if a Acer Aspire x1700 would not support Win 7.

I could try installing a win vista because that is the original OS. But it seems the BSOD occurs more and more with age of the OS installation. After installation nothing gets installed again, my parents in law only use a user account without installation permissions.

Well, have you tried to look for the drivers in Acer's website?

I downloaded and installed drivers from the acer website, titled: Chipset_Nvidia_nForce_MCP73_4.63_Vistax86

Vista x86 should be compatible with 7 x86. However in the list of drivers there wasnt any cpu drivers or what so ever. Nvidia Grhapics only. Havent got any BSOD since, but the BSOD doesnt occur that often after a fresh install.

Maybe i just need to try it for a couple of weeks if the BSOD occurs or not.

Hmm, then try to install Vista and try it there.

Yeah i am gonna try it with the fresh install now for a couple of weeks. If that doesnt work ill try vista. If that doesnt work ill throw the computer out the first window i can find!

Thank you for your help so far! Its appreciated! :)
