Random BSODs

I will try find one to borrow =]

so finally after this long i have a different graphics card installed.
just installed it 10mins ago, a geforce 6800 gs.
will let you know if i get the same random bsods.

So after running it for a while I got one BSOD with no cause (like before).

Then I get another BSOD, but this time with a cause (hooray!)

The gist of it:

KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR

Technical information:

*** STOP: 0x0000007A (0xFFFFF6FC40006EA8, 0XFFFFFFFFC000009D, 0X00000000B1C78860, 0XFFFFF88000DD59AC)

*** SCSIPORT.SYS - Address FFFFF88000DD59AC base at FFFFF88000DBF000, DateStamp 4ce7a419

I take a look, but nothing is ever written to minidump, there's actually not even a minidump folder and i followed the instructions earlier on how to set it up.

Thanks for the update.

Let us know if you get any BSoDs.

My computer wasn't on sleep or hibernate, the power setting is
sleep: never
hibernate: never
turn off hdd: 20mins

I have attached my results.

jcgriff2 tests: don't know the result

perfmon results: don't know how to interpret

disk check: seemed to pass

WD lifeguard test:
- quick: passed
- extended: gets to about 2/3 of the way, then starts spamming abort and restarts the test by itself. quickly upon restart it stops itself and has this:
"Test result: FAIL
Test error code: 08-Too many bad sectors detected"

I suppose I'm in need of a new HDD?
Bad sectors pretty much means I shouldn't use this HDD anymore right?

Thanks for all your help Dave =]
I will give the program a go.
Hopefully everything will be smooth sailing once I get a new HDD.
