Random yet persisting BSODs
Hey everyone,
First time user here with a BSOD problem. Usually I can google and fix the problems but this one seems like a tough one =[, so that is why I came here for expert advice.
The BSOD would happen around at very random times. Sometimes two in a row or sometimes a month apart, which makes debugging a pain in the butt.
Sometimes it will show the blue screen, it doesnt leave any minidump file for me to debug, nor does it leave anything in the System Log. The BSOD always just say "Collecting data from crash dump"
Every time, it would be a different error code.
Specs:
Gigabyte EP45-UD3LR
Intel Q8300
OCZ 4GB DDR2-800 SLI READY
Silverstone Element ST50EF-PLUS
XFX 9500GT
2x 1TB Seagate 7200.10 in Raid 0
Things I have checked:
Memtest for 12+ hours
Intel CPU Burn-in Test for 7 passes
No overclocking
I have attached what is outlined is required for BSOD.
I also have attached three camera photos of the BSOD.
The one with the black screen was one that I captured a month ago.
The two BSOD happened 10 minutes within each other.
There are more BSOD than this, but I dont have photos of it.
