I'm wondering if 0x50 indicates somewhat hardware failure.
Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program. Boot from the CD, and leave it running for at least 5 or 6 passes.
Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot. Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.
ran memtest nultiple times and everything passed.
When running Memtest, do you know exactly how long it takes?

Look at the orange box - that box indicates pass and fails.
When it says "pass complete with no errors"- that indicates the test is finished.
30mins is decent. I suggest that you do it in overnight (while you are sleeping) for at least 8 hours.
How many passes have you run in 30mins? See the pic if you need more help.
don't know how i got 30 min per pass because right now after 6 passes and no errors it took 8 hours and 45 minutes.
Make SURE the DVD is the first priority in the boot order in BIOS. Where did you get the Windows 7 DVD from? If repair installation does not work. Then, do a clean install.
If problem persists, contact MS Support
So when I have the Windows 7 DVD in, i can get it to boot to the point where it says "Windows is loading files" then it crashes to BSOD. Ideas? is there a program i can DL that will scrub the HDD and allow me to start over?
if someone could help me with my BSODS i would be very thankful....FRUSTRATION with this new build is growing by the mintue. https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...ease-help.html
