    BSOD


    Recently I had a BSOD while gaming, but I forgot to analyse it at that time. So after some time my scheduled maintenance software deleted minidump files while cleaning temps
    For some time I supposed it either driver, hardware (either graphics or Ram) or overheating as it occurred only while gaming.


    So, I had to cause BSOD myself.
    I enabled Driver Verifier and worked for about 20 minutes without any problems.
    Than I tried to open a gaming client garena ( http://garena.com/ ).
    I tried it twice both in admin and LUA accounts. And as soon as I open it it caused BSOD.

    SYSTEM:
    Compaq Presario CQ-61 110-SA
    ( Compaq Presario CQ61-110SA Notebook PC - HP technical support (United Kingdom - English) )
    OS: Windows 7 32-bit


    Blue screen view show that both time it was caused by driver ntkrnlpa.exe with bug check code 0x000000cd

    Code:

    I will try my best to help, but have to admit up front that I have never experienced a
    BSOD such as this. The BC code is quite straight forward, but that is where the simplicity ends
    The two drivers mentioned; one comes up with no known company as the manufacturer and the other comes up with Microsoft as the Mfg. The unknown presents problems, because I do not know where to get an update. Why not try the automatic update that is part of the OS. ie Safedrive systems
    The other from MS might need an SFC scan or even a repair install. Lets talk and see what we can do togethter.
    STOP 0x000 000CD: PAGE_FAULT_BEYOND_END_OF_ALLOCATION Usual causes: Device driver

    BSOD such as this the BC code CD is quite straight forward

    I have continued below to be sure that you saw my edit.

    I will post, here your list of outdated drivers:
    Rt86win7.sys Thu Feb 26 04:04:22 2009)
    amdxata.sys Tue May 19 13:57:35 2009
    Update these drivers
    This is a good place to start

    How to Find Drivers
    search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
    - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone - will help you search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
    - The most common drivers are listed on this page: http://www.carrona.org/dvrref.html
    - - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: http://www.carrona.org/drvrdown.html
    To remove any left over driver remnants, especially from graphics cards, use driver sweeper

    So, if I understand correctly, you are sure that it is driver fault?

    EDIT: havent read your last post sorry. Checking drivers now...

    You had the driver verifier running so yes that dump was the caused by a driver.
    May I suggest that you play normally and when you get your next report, submit a dump report. The report that you submitted was bias, due to the driver verifier.

    I would follow the steps that I presented and go with the assumption that the problem is rectified (but I doubt it) the sumbit the next dump report which would give a true picture of what occurs when the verifier is not on.

    It appears Garena is causing the problem. I wonder if a recent update caused it. Check out this similar thread from 4 days ago: https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...craft-3-a.html

    For now, I would suggest removing it and see what happens.

    If the crashes persist, remove Norton with this tool: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/englis...moval_Tool.exe

    I recommend Microsoft Security Essentials for a free AV that will never cause crashes.

    Most of the drivers were updated through laptop manufacture but some of them were produces in 2009...

    For example with my graphic cards I have gone with laptop drivers which are 2009.
    But I know that Intel has newer driver for that particular hardware.

    So I was torn between hardware manufacturer and laptop.

    I guess I should have gone with hardware one :P Anyway now I will try to get those.
    And some drivers like card reader was from Windows Update. (Guess this was bad idea aswel)

    I will try to produce real world BSOD. (Actually I hope drive updates will solve it).


    I agree with you Jonathan, that it is probably cause by Garena.

    But I dont think it was Norton, if I recall correctly it BSOD was resulted before its installation. (while I was running Avast with Windows firewall)

    I will still consider your offer. (I was just trying out new version of Norton)

    Thank you very much Richard and Jonathan!

    (Jonathan I will rep you as soon as I spread enough sorry for now)

    You are very gracious and it is appreciated. I hope that you do not have to worry about another BSOD. I am hopefully that the updated drivers that I suggested in conjunction with Jons advice, your next visit will be to give some good advice rather than need it. Enjoy the games.
