    New laptop, multiple BSoD


    Guess I might as well post and see if it can be resolved somehow... I really don't want to have to deal with mailing it back and waiting for a replacement.

    -x64
    -original OS
    -OEM
    -system is 2 days old as of now, BSODs on first day

    thats about it. Thanks to anyone that can take the time to try and help me out.

    Hi,
    Most your dumps file have error code 0xA (caused by memory or driver with improper address) and 0xBE (usual caused by a driver attempts to write to a read-only memory segment)

    Perform memory test at least for 7 passes because you have memory corruption issue.
    RAM - Test with Memtest86+
    Code:
    BugCheck A, {fffff683ff7ad240, 0, 0, fffff80002ce91e2}
    Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiAgeWorkingSet+1c2 )
    Then uninstall MCAfee and replace it with MSE because its process was involved in the crash.
    (You may reinstall Mcafee later after your windows stable)
    Code:
    BUGCHECK_STR:  0xA
    PROCESS_NAME:  mfefire.exe
    TRAP_FRAME:  fffff88008a268c0 -- (.trap 0xfffff88008a268c0)
    These drivers are part of Mywinlocker software. Update the drivers/software to the latest version or uninstall it.

    If you're still getting BSOD's after following wish's suggestions, please run Driver Verifier according to these instructions. Driver Verifier works well with most STOP 0xA errors, and with some of the STOP 0x8E errors.

    Using Driver Verifier is an iffy proposition. Most times it'll crash and it'll tell you what the driver is. But sometimes it'll crash and won't tell you the driver. Other times it'll crash before you can log in to Windows. If you can't get to Safe Mode, then you'll have to resort to offline editing of the registry to disable Driver Verifier.

    So, I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Win7 Startup Repair feature).

    Then, here's the procedure:
    - Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
    - Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
    - Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
    - Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
    NOTE: You can use Low Resource Simulation if you'd like. From my limited experimentation it makes the BSOD's come faster.
    - Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
    Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
    - Select "Finish" on the next page.

    Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

    Reboot into Windows (after the crash) and turn off Driver Verifier by going back in and selecting "Delete existing settings" on the first page, then locate and zip up the memory dump file and upload it with your next post.

    If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
    If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

    If that doesn't work, post back and we'll have to see about fixing the registry entry off-line:
    Code:
    Delete these registry keys (works in XP, Vista, Win7):
            HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\VerifyDrivers
            HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\VerifyDriverLevel

    First off, thank you for helping. I did all that, then tried using driver verifier... an iffy proposition indeed. Couldn't get windows to boot up without BSoD, so I run it in safe mode ( which works thank god), turn off driver verifier, try to boot and... still BSoD. This time its "critical service failed". So I'm worse off then when I started, somehow. Uploading more dump files.

    What a pain in the ass this is becomming, one of these days I will learn my lesson from buying online. If I bought this locally I would have returned it that day, no questions asked.

    Hi,
    All the dumps have error 0x5A (critical service failed), could be software or hardware failure.
    Your system up time only about 11 seconds before crash.

    So you need to repair the windows system, can be done with recovery partition or Win7 Installation Disc :
    System Recovery Options
    Startup Repair
