    BSOD Victim#4561Z (RESOLVED)


    Here's another BSOD victim.

    I was running Prime 95 for 5 minutes and temps went over 90C! Turned down turbo and underclocked CPU to 2.6GHz it was cooler by 10C while running Prime95 for almost 30 minutes with no problems.

    was using folding@home overnight with no hiccups, temps barely reached mid 50c. Temps right now are stable @ mid 40c. There's really not that much room for cooling with a full ATX PSU right on top of CPU cooler. Things are cramped in there

    Playing games so far hasn't given me any problems/crashes. Watching videos(youtube,hulu, etc.) has been the single reason for these crashes.

    Specs(brand new build, 3 days old)
    Case:Thermaltake Lanbox
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
    Mobo: MSI P55M-GD41 (MS-7588)
    Bios: ver 1.8(purchased with 1.4) -Latest ver
    CPU: Intel Core i5 760, Thermaltake Slim X3 cooler
    RAM: 2x2GB Patriot DDR3 1333MHz
    GPU: ATI Radeon HD 5750 1GB (CCC ver 10.9)-Latest ver

    Many thanks for those that help!

    Are you running overclocked right now?

    Since BSODs are occurring during video, let's go ahead an install K-Lite codec. Install the basic before you install the 64-bit, as Flash is 32-bit.

    Download K-Lite Codec Pack

    I'm analyzing the dmp now.

    Thanks for the reply.

    No it's running underclocked at 2.6GHz and i have the k-lite pack installed as well(one of the first things i always install)

    I'll go ahead and uninstall and re-install by your method

    Bios 1.8 will help with low memory voltage and compatibility

    I believe your Realtek driver is old:

    Module Name: RTL8167
    Display Name: Realtek 8167 NT Driver
    Driver Type: Kernel
    Link Date: 11/5/2009 6:15:41 AM

    Please update to 7/30/2010 6.0.1.6151

    Realtek network chip needs updating to 7/30/2010 7.023.0721.2010

    What the heck. Go ahead and check all the drivers at:

    MSI Global – Computer, Laptop, Notebook, Desktop, Mainboard, Graphics and more

    Please remove any CD virtualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%. They use a driver, found in your dmp, sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs. Use this SPTD uninstaller when you're done:
    www.duplexsecure.com/en/downloads

    The driver SPTD has been known to cause many BSODs

    If the above does not work, I think that the driver verifier will give some information.

    SPTD will not show on verifier, ,but uninstall as suggested.

    Per driver verifier.
    Athrxusb.sys
    Productname: Driver for Atheros Wireless USB Network Adapter
    Description: Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver

    Wireless usb device was the cause of the crash?

    You should continue to use the verifier for 36 hours. There may be other drivers that need to go.
