Perpetually blue screen in windows, even after reformatting.

Penumbra2201 · 15 Nov 2012

Hello,

My computer keeps crashing in windows for some strange reason. On occasion, I get an official blue screen crash, and on said occasions the error is 0x000000F4.

I have installed no upgrades to my computer. I have not only reinstalled windows, but I've deleted the partition and created it anew before reinstalling a new copy of windows.

My computer will run indefinitely in unbuntu without crashing, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

I have attached a zip file with crash information in accordance with the tutorial sticky in this form.

Thanks for your time,

Penumbra
