BSOD on New Sandy Bridge Dell XPS 8300
I was installing drivers and updates after receiving and wiping my new XPS system from Dell and stepped away from the PC for a couple of hours while things downloaded. I came back to a black screen with a mouse cursor that I was able to move. Then the screen switched to a BSOD and restarted with an error code of 1033. Here are the system specs and the .zip file requirement from the BSOD Posting Instructions thread:
Dell XPS 8300
Sandy Bridge Core i7 CPU @ 3.4GHz
8GB of DDR3 RAM
1.5GB 7200 RPM HDD
Newly installed GTX 460 1GB GFX Card
460w PSU
Dual Layer DVD Burner
Is Windows 7 Home Premium
- x64
- Windows 7 Home Premium
- full retail version
- What is the age of system (hardware)? Build date is unknown, but it's new to me from Dell.
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) Brand new.
Any help you guys can provide I'd really appreciate.
