    MEMORY_MANAGEMENT Unpredictable BSoD's.


    So for the past 6 months now i've been having fairly unpredictable spouts of BSoD's, where ill get say 5-6 in a row and then not have any for weeks, and havnt been able to troubleshoot it myself, was hoping someone would be able to look into the dump files and find what is causing this problem for me, thankyou.

    All i can see from BlueScreenView is that ntoskrnl.exe is common in every single crash that is happening along with generally one or two windows associated drivers.

    System Specs :


    CPU - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz

    RAM - Corsair Dominator 8GB RAM CMT4GX3M2A2000C8
    HDD + SSD - (1) Hitachi HDS723020BLA642 (2) Hitachi HDS723020BLA642 (3) Volume0 (Corsair Force 60GB x2 in Raid0)
    GPU's - (1) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 (2) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 SLI
    OS - Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit 7601 Multiprocessor Free Service Pack 1
    PSU - 850w Corsair AX850
    Network - Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection

    RivaTuner/EVGA Precision/MSI Afterburner (known issues w/Win7), recommend uninstalling...

    Also since many of your blue screens are related to system files, recommend running SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    You also had problems with DirectX at one point.. look at: Diagnosing basic problems with DirectX

    DirectX issues can be due to display card driver problems, do the following:

    1. Download and install Driver Sweeper
    2. Download the latest driver for your display card
    3. Click Start Menu
    4. Right Click My Computer
    5. Click Manage
    6. Click Device Manager from the list on the left
    7. Click the + next to Display adapter
    8. Right click your display/graphics card device
    9. Click Uninstall
    10. Check the box to Delete driver software for the device
    11. Click OK
    12. Restart your computer in safe mode
    13. Run Driver Sweeper, select display card manufacturer's drivers, analyze, clean
    14. Restart your computer
    15. Install the latest drivers

    You also had a hard drive issue:
    1. Click Start Menu
    2. Click My Computer
    3. For each drive containing system files or program files do steps 4-9
    4. Right click the drive and click Properties
    5. Click the tools tab
    6. Click Check now...
    7. Tick Automatically fix file system errors
    8. Click OK
    9. If prompted, click schedule disk check (the next time the computer starts)
    10. Restart your computer.

    If the above steps do not resolve your issue, and since most of your problems could be related to memory problems, run the boot version of Memtest86+ paying close attention to Parts 2 and 3 of the tutorial.

    If your memory checks out, but you continue to have issues, run Driver Verifier as follows:
    To run Driver verifier, do the following:
    1. Backup your system and user files
    2. Create a system restore point
    3. If you do not have a Windows 7 DVD, Create a system repair disc
    4. Run Driver Verifier

    If Windows cannot start in normal mode with driver verifier running, start in safe mode. If it cannot start in safe mode or normal mode, restore the system restore point using System Restore OPTION TWO.

    Thanks to zigzag3143 for contributing to the above steps.

    Let Driver Verifier run for a while and collect a few Blue Screen minidmp files for us to check. These will point toward any drivers/software that do not run well with Windows 7.
