    Okay, well, I plugged the optical drive back in, and I got a BSOD while Windows was starting up.

    STOP 1E
    fltmgr.sys
    Ok then we have the culprit, are the SATA ports 5 and 6 set to IDE?

    Yup, they sure are.
    Luckily, I enabled Kernel dump recently instead of small memory, and it caught the BSOD info so that I can post it here now.

    I can also provide event logs if needed.

    This is what I read about the file:
    FltMgr.sys is a “system” file used by Windows to help control various aspects of your hard drives & files. Its official name is the “Microsoft Filesystem Filter Manager” and its main duty in the operating system is make sure that the data written to the hard drive is correct and not corrupted. The fltmgr.sys error is caused when Windows cannot read or process files that are on the hard drive, usually because the File System Manager is damaged or unreadable. If this is the case, it can cause hard drives to stop working and the blue screen to appear.

    Some places are saying that old drivers can cause this to happen, but I don't know what drivers he has that are outdated, they're all up-to-date as far as I know. Will Driver Verifier determine that?

    I have asked for one of the BSOD experts to have a look, did you update your chipset drivers? also on that site are many other drivers for your MB it would probably help to download and install all updates that you have not yet done, as I do at least understand the bit about the BSOD maybe being caused by a driver problem.

    I didn't update chipset drivers yet. I'll have to do that later, I'm about to go take care of a few things. I'll check back here later.

    Hello,

    Try running Memtest86 on all sticks at the same time, immediately upon powering on after a break. No need to run for too long, 5-10 minutes should be plenty for what we are testing for.

    Ran Memtest after a power on after a long break. Nothing happened. Everything was fine.

    I've uploaded the dump file for this particular crash if it'll help. It's on SkyDrive here:
    https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=e4de9a8be33ed49b&sc=documents&uc=1&id=E4DE9A8BE33ED49B!126#

    It's inside the zipped folder.

    I'm going to post some pictures of my wiring inside his case, and of the screen running the Memtest. Maybe there's something you can learn from these that I just can't see. But when looking at his wiring, all looked fine, as well as the Memtest. I'll do that when I get a chance, we're now in the new apartment we moved in to, but we don't have a router yet, so we can only use internet on one computer at a time.

    Note: when I rebooted from Memtest the computer started up just fine the first time. It didn't crash the first time starting up when it rebooted. So I guess if something else is booted first before Windows, and I restart from it, Windows will start just fine.

    I just received another BSOD this morning when trying to power on again. Well, my boyfriend powered it on. It caught the dump file again and it involves the file cng.sys, stop error 3B, SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION.

    Here's the original dump file. I attached it in a zip.

    And I tried updating the chipset drivers but it just looks like it's trying to update graphics drivers. The graphics driver is up to date. Is there something else that the chipset driver updates besides graphics? Or do I have to uninstall graphics driver, then install chipset, then update graphics? Kind of a pain, but if that's what I have to do, I'll do it.

    If you haven't yet, try running a system file checker that will check and try to repair any damaged system files. Open an elevated command prompt(start button-type cmd in search box-right click on cmd and select run as administrator) in the command window type or copy/paste sfc /scannow it will take a few minutes and will either verify the integrity of system files or give you an error log.

    I've done that already. It found nothing wrong.

    I tried disabling some non-Microsoft system services and powering on after shutting down and it still crashed every time. The dump files are all contained in this folder.

    Since it will cleanly boot up the very first time if something else is booted before it, it makes me think there's something wrong with boot files, but the system doesn't find a single corrupted or missing file. I can't explain it.

    I know that ntoskrnl pops up in a LOT of these, too.
