    IRQL BSOD on Windows 7 x64


    Hi all! Since I bought my computer (about 2 months ago), I had BSODs in sometimes.

    I have reinstalled all the system, but the BSODs still occurs. I think it could be caused by Wireless PCI Card, but I'm not so sure of that. Can you help me?

    I attach the latest two minidumps, cause I reinstalled one week before.

    Thank you in advance!

    P.D: I don't have installed perfmon program. Sorry for the inconvenience .

    Asus P7P55D
    Intel Core i5 760
    4 GB Mushkin <- Tested with memtest OK
    Ati HD5770
    Conceptronic Wifi PCI Card (C300Ri)

    Excuse me, this is the first time I'm trying to repair a BSOD fail. I don't understand which is the main failure, and what I have to do with it.

    I understand that the first BSOD is provoked by ITunes, and the next one by Ralink Wireless Utility. Why do I have to remove the other two files? Will it be fixed if I uninstall those applications?

    Thanks for all.

    Well as if now the cause is unknown. Windows didn't catch the exact cause. Other two files are notorious for BSOD so it's recommend to remove it.

    Hi soke; and welcome to the forum. Often dumps do not pinpoint a specific reason for a crash and there can be more than one cause. Troubleshooting a BSOD is many times a process of elimination. In your case, both bug checks are general and do not give a specific cause. The advice Captain Jack gave you is based on clues from your dump coupled with his vast experience.

    Daemon tools is a documented cause of BSOD's on some Win 7 systems due to its sptd.sys driver. Uninstall Daemon Tools and then run this program to delete all traces of sptd.sys. Select uninstall; do not select reinstall. DuplexSecure - Downloads

    Here is a free alternative CD virtualization program that does not use the sptd.sys driver.
    Freeware MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM(MagicDisc) Overview

    Outdated drivers can and do cause conflicts, memory corruption and BSOD's. Will updating these drivers and unstalling sptd.sys fix your problem? We don't know; it is part of the process of elimination.
