    Random BSOD problem


    Hello Everybody,


    I am getting random blue screens for different errors including win32k.sys and memory management.

    specs:

    • Gigabye GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3
    • Intel Core i5-2500 processor
    • Markvision DDR3 4GB 1333MHz
    • Radeon HD 5670 Series graphics card
    • Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
    • The age of my system is 7 months old

    Welcome
    The reports hint toward hardware, but also name a number of drivers as the cause. Lets rule out drivers so we can concentrate on hardware if necessary
    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.

    Dont know if that is actually good, the problem may very well be hardware.

    Run for 8 passes
    Then run each stick for 6 pases.

    I've ran memtest on each individual stick for over 6 passes each and with both of them for 10 passes, but no errors.

    To determine it its harware can you give me as much detail as possible about what you were doing when this happens?
