    New BSOD error I haven't seen yet: "System_Service_Exception", came home to it this afternoon. Attached is the dump. I'm going to try to install and run this Maxtor diagnostic right now.

    I notice a few outdated drivers, that's all.

    Those nForce drivers are still outdated. They should read March 3, 2010, but they read May 20, 2009 instead.

    Your Realtek Wireless drivers are old too. Install these ones: Realtek

    I swear I installed those nforce drivers yesterday, what would make them not take? This time I'll be sure to run as administrator. I'll update the wireless one right now as well.

    Are you double-clicking on the .exe file you downloaded? It looks like you are using Windows Update from the screenshot.

    I right clicked on the exe, selected Run As Administrator, and followed the prompts which included: "previous drivers detected, will have to remove current drivers, and restart to finish the installation". It restated, but then this came up.

    Try disabling automatic driver installation: Drivers - Turn Off Automatic Driver Installation

    It's already on "Never install drives from Windows Update". I'll try again. Also, I don't have a floppy drive, so no go on that maxtor utility.

    Ok, I didn't have any problems this time. But if I go into Device Manager, the nforce drivers still say 8/2009. Additionally (I don't know if this matters) but I have a yellow triangle on the "Other devices: Mass Storage Controller".

    I went into my bios just now to look around. Where I set my advanced memory/processor timings/voltages recommended by the manufacturers, I changed them to all "auto"s, see if that does anything.

    I ran memory tests, i've done my best to update drivers, i reinstalled windows, not sure what else there is to do other then start unplugging stuff (video card, individual memory sticks) until I find a configuration that doesn't have a bsod in 24 hours. :/. It should be noted that my computer was running fine for almost a year since my last problem (which was memory sticks) before this happened all at once. While I understand that many people have issues with their drivers, mine were working fine for a very long time. All I've done to my computer is windows updates.

    Doesn't this point to a possible hardware problem somewhere in the line?

    I may go through and unplug all components, blow the dust out of the case, re-seat the components, re-goup the processor/fan; see if that does something.

    Learned a lot about bsods this week, very disappointed to find out that their error messages aren't very helpful at all in pointing out the root of their problems, they might as well say "Generic Error: Something bad just happened. Update your drivers."

    Good idea about reseating components, blowing out dust, etc.

    Test your temps: SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer

    Do you know what PSU you have?

    Try this Hitachi hard drive test: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/suppor...2_v415_b01.iso

    Download that ISO, and burn it to a CD using the Windows Disc Image Burner.

    See this tutorial if you need instructions: Burn Disc Image - ISO or IMG file
