    Recently upgraded computer, getting BSODs often. Never during gaming?


    SO recently (in November) i upgraded my CPU, mobo, and ram, and have been getting many BSODs. my new CPU is the amd bulldozer 8 core, and since its been known to have some problems, i updated my bios to the latest available (a beta bios). That fixed my steam games giving BSODs. now i randomly get BSODs every once in a while (every week or two) but the last few days I have gotten a BSOD every day. I have disabled C1E state on my bios, and that made it so I don't BSOD while watching embedded youtube videos. I also installed the Windows bulldozer hotfix, which made my pc faster.

    Then I noticed something special about my BSODs - they only seem to happen while I am doing something not very resource intensive, like web browsing. It never happens while I am playing a game. So i thought it might be a driver having issues with state changes of my CPU. I disabled C6 state in my BIOS just in case, but that didn't seem to help much.

    So now I'm here asking what you guys thing is the problem. Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    -BGM

    MSINFO32.nfo file is corrupted (not unusual). Please do this:
    - Go to Start and type in "msinfo32" and press Enter
    - When the utility opens, save a copy of it as an .nfo file, and another copy as a .txt file
    - Zip them up and upload them with your next post
    Daemon Tools (and Alcohol % software) are known to cause BSOD's on Win7 systems due to the sptd.sys driver.
    Please uninstall the program, then use the following free tool to ensure that the troublesome sptd.sys driver is removed from your system (pick the 32 or 64 bit system depending on your system's configuration): DuplexSecure - FAQ

    AMD OverDrive (AODDriver2.sys) is either a stand-alone application, or a component of the AMD VISION Engine Control Center.
    Please uninstall the AMD OverDrive program.
    If it's the stand-alone app, uninstall it via Control Panel...Programs...Uninstall a program
    If it's in the AMD VISION Engine Control Center, you can uninstall it using the AMD uninstall tool (or uninstall the entire AMD VISION Engine Control Center application through Control Panel
    If overclocking, please stop. Remove the overclock and return the system to stock/standard values while we're troubleshooting. Once the system is stable again, feel free to resume the overclocking.

    Otherwise, I'm suspecting a hardware problem. Please try the free hardware diagnostics here: Hardware Diags

    so, i'm generating the msinfo32 again right now. I uninstalled daemon tools yesterday, but i had to manually remove the driver myself, haven't restarted yet but I will.

    I stopped overclocking my CPU earlier today, but that last BSOD was after I stopped overclocking. I don't overclock my GPU.

    I just want to mention I got my GPU about a month before my other parts, and I had no BSODs until i installed my new CPU/motherboard/ram

    also I've run memtest about a month ago and it resulted in no problems.

    EDIT: just restarted, no more SPTD.

    The sptd.sys driver is well-known for it's BSOD's. Monitor for further BSOD's now that it's gone.

    The MSINFO32.nfo file is still corrupt. As I said previously, this isn't unusual - that's why I requested a copy of the report saved as a .txt file. But hold off on it now - unless you get another BSOD.

    oh, sorry, i'll save it as a txt in a sec.

    also, I can open the NFO directly using notepad, just drag and drop. unless you've tried that?

    also another note is I only seem to get one BSOD per day max.

    Nice trick about drag and drop into Notepad. Real difficult to read tho'. I'll hold off reading it (I have serious eye problems) unless you get more BSOD's.

    sure, thats fine. I'll report if there's another BSOD.

    also i have a feeling that if it's a hardware problem, its not my HDD, because then it would be BSOD'ing randomly, not just during light processing.
