    !! HELP PLS. !!! RANDOM BSODs - have documented 4- attchd all details


    Gurus...pls. help. and I'm a newbie

    I had a new system built 5 months ago- COre I5 2500K, GIgabyte Z68xUD3H MOBO, 8GB corsair RAM, Win 7- it was running off the vertex OCX SSD - 64GB. The guy didnt do the intel RST properly as he loaded Win 7 directly onto SSD. System was giving unusual app errors so I decided to rebuild the OS 2 weeks ago - formatted HDD and loaded Win 7 SP1. I have not yet turned on the Intel RST although I have seen it works fine.

    Since last few days, been thru a string of BSODs. I've attached all the required format details here so hopefully you gurus can help me soon. After we troubleshoot this BSOds, I really want to take a good backup of the system and then turn on Intel RST - so I can fasten the system.

    Anything else reqd., pls. let me know. BUT PLS. HELP ME SOON !! thanks a lot in advance.

    Your reports hint at driver problems. Let try to find out which one

    Driver Verifier
    I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).

    In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

    Then, here's the procedure:
    - Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
    - Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
    - Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
    - Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
    - Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
    Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
    - Select "Finish" on the next page.

    Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because
    Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

    If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
    If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

    Rich--- I dont see how to do this..no option that depicts low resource simulation
    - Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"

    so I selected all drivers and have rebooted the system. Hope that's what was required.

    Nevermind..I had launched verifier as ADMINISTRATOR - hence was getting confusing UI. When I just launched it - it gave me the predefined settings..now we're good. Doing another reboot...
    How do I check that the right ones are being verified - is there a report or querry?

    The verifier puts all drivers under stress. The bad ones will cause BSODS. After 36 hours just give me your dump reports as you did in your earlier post.

    Rich/others - here it is what you asked for- Have been running verifier since last 2 days. One thing found unusual now- system has been giving me BSOD on startup as well - for instance today 8/25, both in morning and afternoon - when I started my PC it gave me BSODs. Attached is all the dump info. Eagerly awaiting your response..
