Computer keeps on getting random BSODs and ´freezing´
Hey,
I`ve started having very strange and very serious bsod-problems and weird freezes last fall. I tried everything from re-installing all drivers and the whole OS (I even changed it to XP). When I tried driververifier.exe the whole rig went berserk. Finally I could`t even install xp without getting a bsod. Resetting BIOS would´t work either, so I sent the mobo and the processor back to the retailer, but they could´t find any problem with them and they sent the parts back to me. When I reassembled the parts the computer started working again and I haven´t had any problems with it... Untill now..
This time I´ve reinstalled Win 7, updated it, installed all the latest drivers, did a full virusscan with avast! (found Athena2.exe infection in my Acronics backup folder--> deleted the folder and reinstated OS)l. No help... I still keep getting the same old freezes and BSODs, which say something about a fatal error and system protection, but no error code.
System help report said the following (freely translated, because my OS is in Finnish):
"Could´t detect antivirus program... etc. etc. etc...." --> nobrainer with avast!
This was interesting:
"A high stopcount per processor detected. This computer has 4 processor and 6 "webcards" (meaning wlan-card and the integrated ethernet-card I think). Total computer stopcount per second is 31590. Average stopcount per processor is 7898." And the counts from the processor drop-down menu were: "Average = 31,590 ; Smallest value = 14,167 ; Highest value = 376,585."
Please help me solve this! My rig cost me a fortune and I´m a university student so I really can´t afford a new one!
