Several BSODs - 9f (seems to occur around standby mode), e6

Ugh, guess what? I had another BSOD right before I got up.

I got the files together again. I hope you wouldn't mind helping.

You need to update your Ethernet driver:

Code:

Rt64win7.sys Thu Feb 26 02:04:13 2009 (49A65B0D)

Rt64win7.sys is your Realtek RTL8168D/8111D Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC and can be updated from your HP support site: Original Realtek Networking Controller Driver HP Pavilion Elite HPE-350t CTO Desktop PC - HP Customer Care (United States - English)

If you still have problems after doing the above, I would recommend looking into all the software you have running on startup: Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

Make sure to leave your antivirus software enabled in startup and services.

I recently had a BSOD. So I ran a clean boot and it no longer takes like, a minute for the desktop to load up/programs to open when clicked. I've been complaining about that for a about year, haha. I'll leave it on for a few days and see what happens.

Good news about the faster startup! Keep us posted on whether the blue screens still occur and/or if you determine what startup/service item is causing them if one of those is the culprit.

There was no problem for around five days, so I added back about half of the services to start up. But while I was restarting, the system got stuck on the shutting down screen for over 45 minutes, so eventually I just hit the power button to power down then boot up. I wonder if the system was already starting the services before it shut down, and that caused it (meaning one of the re-added services is the problem), or if this is a whole separate issue.

Hard to say. It may have hung trying to save the settings for the services.

Are they now enabled? Have you had further issues with half the services enabled?

Also, since you did a hard shutdown, I would advise a Disk Check with Automatically fix file system errors checked. Hard shutdowns often corrupt the hard disk and cause file system errors that Windows needs to correct.

Yes, they are. It was storming last night so I shut my computer down until I got up. It shut down fine that time (and when restarting today to do the disc check as well). So it seems it was a fluke the night before last. :)

I've had no problems yet with having the first half enabled. But I'm giving it at least a few more days before I test the other half. Is it possible that two may not work well together? (Just curious.

) I suppose I should test the start up items as well, if no services seem to be a problem. The only item enabled right now is Microsoft Security Essentials. I usually have most of them disabled anyway.

There is always a chance two will not work well together, but you will probably just find one that is causing problems. Let us know what you find as you go through the steps.

Okay, I enabled half of the still-disabled. The shutdown went fine, but the start up seemed a little slower, which makes sense. I'll know the results of this group within another few days. :)

EDIT: That was fast. Good thing I wrote down the ones I enabled, because clearly one of them's causing it.

Alright, nice work tracking it down. Let us know when you find which one.
