Frequent BSOD crashes

Okay, well keep us posted!

Can you post the CPUZ SPD tab with the timing information?
Go to the 'Slot #' drop box and select another slot to get the information.

From your CPUZ CPU tab in post#84, the CPU voltage 1.176v, Vcore in BIOS, seems to be a little low, should be 1.23v at full load.
Page 43 of you motherboard manual: Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3
Check the 'CPU Vcore' voltage number and post the amount here, the setting should be on '[Auto]'.

While you're in BIOS, post the QPI/Vtt voltage, that is the CPU integrated memory controller voltage.
Also the Dram voltage.

Let us know what they did to fix it, and of coarse how it's running.

Well, they checked it out and all seemed perfect. I suspect that my TV tuner card which was previously in the computer may have been the culprit. Since I brought computer home I have installed Office, printer drivers, Norton 360, Firefox and Thunderbird. I have also reconnected my backup drive and restored documents, bookmarks, etc. I seem to be again getting lots of errors - now mostly in Restart Manager. Can you tell me what is happening here?
p.s. I just disconnected the backup drive (which also has Windows Security Essentials backups), and did a restart. Now the only message is WMI one. Obviously there's some connection. Perhaps the Norton is trying to match data on startup and seeing different and unidentified folders? Or is the computer looking at the Windows SE backup and not finding the software to match?

Can you post the information files from Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.
Even without actual crash dump files this will give us a lot of information that we can use to analyze this issue.

It appears that the system builder re-installed the OS, please verify.
Can we get more information on the system settings, since the settings were probably changed, we need to know where we are at now.

Can you download CPUZ and post a snip of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory, and SPD tabs.
Go to your BIOS and tell us what the CPU, RAM and the CPU integrated memory controller voltages are.
This is important information.

Can you select another Slot for the CPUZ SPD tab, upper left corner, it should have RAM timing information.
Also post the CPU tab.

The voltages are the same ones requested checking before the re-install.

There have been 28 crashes since the re-install.
20 on 10 April, 6 on 11 April, 2 on the 12 April.

All 28 are the same:

Code:

STOP 0x00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Usual causes:  Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus,  Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS
Could not read faulting driver name
Probably caused by : AppleCharger.sys ( AppleCharger+280a )

This is likely a hardware fault, due to settings or component issue.
With the CPUZ tabs and voltage settings requested we can start adjusting some settings.

Bad or out of date drivers:

Code:

AF15BDA.sys  Wed Jun 03 08:58:22 2009

Looks like the TV tuner driver, uninstall this driver.

Go to the Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 site and update all the drivers for your motherboard.

Looks like you have had a lot of Windows update failures.

There are errors that may be caused by the Anti Virus Norton, un-install Norton 360 for testing purposes.
First uninstall from the Control Panel > Programs and Features.
Then Run the Norton cleanup tool:
Download and run the Norton Removal Tool to uninstall your Norton product

Install MSE, this will run without causing errors.
Microsoft Security Essentials*- Free Antivirus for Windows

When we get the system stable, you can try Norton again, if you want.
