    Getting BSOD overnight as well as occasionally on startup


    Hi all,

    My computer has been shutting down unprompted upon leaving on overnight and additionally, on startup, I occasionally (but not always) get a BSOD with the keyword 0x8000000000000002. I've tried several adjustments with no success and am getting a bit frustrated.

    I've attached my Windows SevenForums Diagnostics Tool results for your review. Any help anyone can provide as to what might be causing these errors is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

    Welcome to Seven Forums.

    If you are overclocking any hardware, STOP. Reset any changed values back to default.

    Perform a clean boot:

    Then follow this:

    If you have an SSD, make sure the following are up to date:
    • SSD firmware
    • BIOS Version
    • Chipset Drivers
    • Hard disk controller drivers/SATA drivers
    • If you have a Marvell IDE ATA/ATAPI device, make sure the drivers are up to date from the Intel site or Marvell site and not from your motherboard/vendor support site.
    Check your hard drive(s) for errors by running chkdsk:

    Perform a System File Check to check the integrity of all protected Windows 7:
    • Click Start Menu
    • Click All Programs
    • Click Accessories
    • Right click Command Prompt
    • Click Run as administrator
    • Type
    • Code:
      sfc /scannow
    • and press Enter

    Full tutorial here:

    Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.

       Note
    Pay close attention to part 3 of the tutorial in order to rule out the faulty stick.

       Information
    Errors are sometimes found after 8 passes.

       Tip
    Do this test overnight, before going to bed.

    Then we'll run and see if it catches any misbehaving drivers:

    Let us know the results.

    Thanks for the comprehensive response,

    Ok, I've returned the CPU to default speed and voltage and have run the disk check. I got past the disc check screen and got the following error when Windows popped.



    I assume it's safe to entirely remove the VirtuMVP (I wonder if it's causing issues due to the fact that I have a 3-monitor setup)? I've also run memtest for multiple passes before I changed any of the settings and everything passed. Any further guidance anyone can provide is greatly appreciated, thanks!!

    Seatool for dos: SeaTools | Seagate download
    Burn it in a blank cd. boot from the CD, click on "Accept", wait for it to finish detecting the drives, then in the upper left corner select "Basic Tests", then select "Long Test" and let it run.
