wait, I wasn't in front of the computer so I didn't witness it, you're saying there isn't a record of a critical stop from just a little while ago? That's interesting, I will ask my son exactly what happened
edit: he didn't allow for the dump file to finish compiling before he restarted, he knows now to wait till it gets to 100%

There have been no BSOD's since my last post, crazy are the ways of Hobbits & BSOD's, e.g., I'm not exactly how we cured it but it seems the worst is behind us. I will go ahead and call this one 'solved' and thank you so much for the great help
Hi guys, this system has been experiencing occassional BSODs on restarts, could I get some advice on what's going on? Thanks,
Dave
The latest BSOD as per the uploaded zip is of 07/11. No meaningful inference can be drawn based on such an old dump, because things changed a lot during this time.
You have Daemon Tools Ultra installed. Daemon Tools, Alcohol 120% and Power Archiver Pro uses SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD), which is a well known BSOD causer. Uninstall the program at first. Then download SPTD standalone installer from Disk-Tools.com, and execute the downloaded file as guided below :
- Double click to open it.
- Click this button only:
- If it is grayed out, as in the picture, there is no more SPTD in your system, and you just close the window.
Hope it will do a better there.
thanks for that, I will follow your advice. I'm curious why the latest BSODs aren't showing up? Does WhoCrashed need to be installed prior to the BSOD? Because it was uninstalled until this morning...
