    jason, you set the minimum to 1, what did you set the maximum to? :)
    100

    For controlling the fan you would be better off using what is in the bios if available, Speedstep (may be listed as EIST) and Q-fan. Between the two of them they will lower the CPU speed when full power isn't needed, and lower the fan speed.

    One thing from that Speedfan picture, if that 12V reading is anywhere close to being accurate then that could very well be the problem with stability. Software is one of the worst ways for checking voltages, best is to test with a volt/multi-meter and then compare the real values to what the software reports. As for that 12V reading the general rule used to be and still is +/- 5%, and if that reported 11.46V is anywhere near correct, with the system at idle doesn't leave a lot of room when the system is at load.
    Hmm, stability was the reason I got the PSU changed originally

    Edit: My PC just rebooted randomly, the first reboot/blue screen today, but I suppose it's no use without a .dmp :/

    We do need a dump.

    Well I just received a further two restarts

    It's strange because they started happening a little while after I changed my fan speed to 80%

    Although, I don't think the PC is overheating because the temp has stayed at 44 degrees constant throughout

    Change it to 90% and see what happens. I am beginning to wonder if you have mobo problems.

    Jason in Speedfan click on Configure, and click on the Log tab and enable logging. Next click on the Voltages tab and then click on the 12, 5 and 3.3V readings and select Logged for each. It will then log those three reading to a file in the folder where Speedfan is installed as long as Speedfan is running. When you get the next crash, then go to the Speedfan folder make a copy of the log file (will look something like this, SFLog20100629.cvs), and change the file extension for .cvs to .txt and upload the renamed file to this thread please.

    As I said software is no real substitute to checking with a volt meter, but it will do for this as it will show how much if any voltage drop there is when the system crashes.

    Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I don't think the Windows 7 install is bugged because I used to get blue screens a lot on Vista too, the only reason I got 7 was because of the trouble I was having with Vista

    As for drivers, I will turn off automatic drivers and try the signature check when I get back
    Hi -

    If these BSODs are indeed hardware related, the possibility then exists that such unknown hardware failure may have corrupted the Windows 7 installation in some manner.

    I ran the last attached dump and found 3 drivers that need updating. Two of them are network related - both Ethernet and wifi. These older NIC drivers coupled with the fact that this particular BSOD lists XFire as the process running on CPUx at the time of the crash suggests to me that these aged drivers play a part here.

    Seeing win32k.sys, the Microsoft Win32 subsystem driver, listed as the probable cause could very well be due to the outdated ATI video drivers. Video is one of the very few areas permitted to transition from user-mode into kernel code territory.

    Code:
    L1E62x64.sys Thu Jun 11 02:45:22 2009 (4A30A802) - Atheros Ethernet
     
    Dnetr28ux.sys Wed Aug 05 09:59:46 2009 (4A799052) - D-Link Wifi LAN Card 
     
    atikmdag.sys Mon Aug 17 23:05:47 2009 (4A8A1A8B) - ATI video
    Check Device manager for specific device information -
    START | devmgmt.msc

    ATI --> Graphics Drivers & Software

    Atheros --> Atheros Communications

    D-Link --> D-Link - TechSupport

    If no-go at D-Link, try -

    Linksys --> Support and Services
    Ralink --> Ralink corp.


    Update the 3 drivers and see if BSODs persist.

    Hello Jason,

    Dump didn't point anything specific the crash has happen with Java application. I remember when we ran the Sigchecker it found few Java dlls that has issues with. So i guess it's best to remove the Java application. Also was a Memory read error
    Code:
    ReadMemory error: Cannot get nt!KeMaximumIncrement value.
