BSOD ntoskrnl.exe errors
Hi
I'm new to this forum. I have a DELL Studio XPS 8000 I7 (x64), which I've had for just a year. It worked fine for about 9 months, then 3 months ago started crashing randomly. This seemed to become more and more frequent.
I tried several things.
- Windows Update
- chkdsk /r
- Registry cleaner
But none of these solved the problem.
I then took a more drastic step and re-installed Windows 7 from the DELL-supplied media. Even this didn't resolve the problem. I then went through and updated all the drivers. No joy.
After all this I assumed it must be a hardware fault, so I tried runing DELL Diagnostics (memory/hard-disk/fan etc) - all tests passed okay. I even did a 48-hour soak test on the memory access tests, with no failures. But as soon as I rebooted into windows it went BSOD again. Interestingly it seems rock-solid when running diagnostics - but unstable in Windows.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Please see attached files.
Thanks and regards
