    Random BSOD Need Help


    So i have this problem since about 3/4 weeks but in total it only happened about 10 times but 4 of those yesterday and today (two each day) and it looks like it's getting worse.
    It's the first time i had BSOD with my new build , and i have this PC almost a year , only other time it happened was when i was testing my overclock when i finished the build but that's normal.
    Since than everything worked tip top and couple of weeks ago while playing Witcher 2 bam! a BSOD , i didn't really made a big thing out of it at first but it's now it's happening everyday.
    It probaly has nothing to do with the game itself cause it's happening randomly , while browsing the net , gaming and such.
    Yesterday i updated all the drivers afaik but it didn't help.
    I think it might be the problem with new nvidia GPU drivers because i installed 275.27 beta driver around the same time it started to happen but as i had some problems with it i rolled back to 270.61 WHQL.
    Now I'm using 275.33 WHQL so i thought i roll back to 270.61 WHQL again but i will wait to see what you guys think.
    Only change i made to my hardware recently (last week) is a new 3TB Hitachi HDD
    and removed old 750GB , idk if it's relevant to the situation but i thought it's worth mentioning.
    I'm attaching all the required files as instructed and filled the info about my system.
    Thank you in advance.

    P.S: My Windows 7 Ultimate x64 is a Retail version and i installed it 6 months ago (with a new SSD)

    Memory corruption probably caused by sptd.sys.


    Please remove any CD virtualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%.


    They use a driver, found in your dmp,sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs.

    Use this SPTD uninstaller DuplexSecure - Downloads

    when you're done you can use this Freeware MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD-ROM(MagicDisc) in its place.



    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.



    Update old drivers
    Code:
    RTCore64.sys    5/25/2005 2:39:12 AM        fffff880`0ee97000    fffff880`0ee9d000    0x00006000    0x42941d90                        
    jswpslwfx.sys    5/15/2008 6:28:50 AM        fffff880`04000000    fffff880`0400d000    0x0000d000    0x482c1062                        
    adfs.SYS    6/26/2008 4:52:37 PM        fffff880`07867000    fffff880`0787f000    0x00018000    0x48640195                        
    ctac32k.sys    7/2/2008 4:38:22 AM        fffff880`052e7000    fffff880`05395000    0x000ae000    0x486b3e7e
    How To Find Drivers:
    - search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
    - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
    - - The most common drivers are listed on this page: Driver Reference Driver Reference
    - - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: Drivers and Downloads

    First of all thank you for the reply.
    So i did everything you suggested used SPTD uninstaller , uninstalled Daemon Tools
    Lite and updated the programs using files you specified.

    Only thing that remains is jswpslwfx.sys my ESET is blocking lion's share of results i get from google and gives me this message.

    "Access to the web page was blocked by ESET Smart Security.
    The web page is on the list of websites with potentially dangerous content"

    Why is that , is ESET just overprotective ?
    Now I'm going to wait and see if my PC crashes again.
    Once again Thank You for the help !! .
