Please help, BSOD on new Windows 7 x64 PC

Hi All,

I bought a new PC with Windows 7 x64 and I get BSOD.
It happens less when I disable my onboard soundcard but It still happen.
Im using latest BIOS and drivers. I dont know what do do anymore.
It seems most errors are related to win32k.sys and ntoskrnl.exe.
Hope someone can help, its a brand new PC and I dodnt know what to do anymore.

I have attached some dump files.

Thanks in advance,

Lex

Thanks! will do and post back result asap.

I did what you requested.

I searched my computer for programs responsible for that HARDLOCK.SYS and could find any. I'm not using any Aladdin software.
The only software I did not install myself (see post above) is PC Angel from Softthinks. I think it was pre-installed by the store where I bought the PC, its some sort of recovery software,

I runned Memtest and it showed no errors.

I used HD Tune to scan my drives as the Western Digital test utility (Diag504f) wasnt running (stuck on black dos screen when booting from the CD). It seems Intel doesnt have a test utillity to test the SSD drives. I did noticed there was a firmware upgrade available for the SSD so installed that.
HD Tune didnt show any problems with both of the drives.

Next (couple of minutes ago) I opened IE to go to this forum and there was a BSOD again, this one seems a little different as it is refering to TCP/IP.
I have attached the dump file.

Anything else I can do? Thanks in advance for any support!

Did not have the time to test and do everything but I managed to install the latest drive for my onboard NIC. PC was on yesterday for several hours without a crash.
Will keep you posted.

I have uninstalled McAfee and used the removal tool. INow Im running MS Security Essentials with latest updates.
It looks like its going a bit better as Im getting less BSDOD but just got another one.

Can anyone take a look please, the fump file is attached.

Hi and welcome

these are all similar, yet not identical. they point to a memory problem.

I would
download memtextx86 and run it a long time like hours. it will both test the ram and check to see if there us a heat issue.

run a system file check to verify and repair your system files to do that
type cmd in search>right click and run as admin>sfc /scannow

Thanks for the advise. I will run memtest over a long period tomorrow. Any idea how to make it run indefinitely, last time I did it finished after about an hour.
Just got another BSOD, again a new one. Weird thing is lately it seems to happen everytime I start internet explorer.

The new BSOD is attached, hope it helps solving this issue.
