    BSOD while win7 login, error 0x000000F4


    I recently got a new SSD and regular HDD, and made a fresh install of win 7 home premium 64bit
    After a few days (4 or 5) it started to lag and freeze up a bit, random programs stopped working for a minute, then continued working. Then yesterday, I got a BSOD, pc restarted and checked the C:\ drive, nothing wrong, PC restarted and everything was working well. Except that steam had unmarked my games as installed, even though they where in the drive(this was not an issue, the games worked) And today, after writing a long assignment I saved it to my dropbox folder, and everything froze like when some program stops working, then resume. This happens 4 more times, and I decide to restart. While loggin out, I got the BSOD, and now it will only login in safe mode and safemode with network. If I try to startup in the normal mode it either goes BSOD directly or after less than a minute in the desktop.

    The stop error is 0x000000F4, here's the minidump folder:

    Hi, here's the msinfo32. I think that I have SP1 installed, I can't check if it is installed though, but I'm pretty sure it is.

    To check if Service Pack 1 is installed do this

    Click the button , and inside the Search programs and files textbox, type winver and then click on winver.exe

    Take a look what the build number is

    Windows 7 with SP1 - build number is 7601
    Windows 7 without SP1- build number is 7600

    Make it sure that the Intel 330 Series SSD is running the the latest firmware.

    For the Seagate 2 TB, 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.


    Let us know the results.

    Ok, so far I've downloaded all the programs, but only succesfully installed the SSD toolbox, the drivers are up to date and it suggested me to fix a issue with the superfetch/prefetch setting. I did so and the PC seems to work a bit faster, I also managed to login normaly twice, first time I restarted, the second time I got a BSOD when turning the PC off. The seatools for dos I can't install yet, since I don't have any CD's

    I'm trying to install the SP1, but it's not letting me due to some error about not reaching the RPC. Can I install SP1 trough safemode?

    Well, the PC is freezing every minute or two now, I can't install the SP1 and I also mannaged to login trough normal mode, but it will get a BSOD after less than 10 seconds. I'm now considering wiping the drives and starting over and see if it works then. It's not a hardware problem is it?

    Boot into Advanced Boot Options > Safe mode.

    Run the PC in safe mode for a while .... and see if it BSODs in safe mode or not.

    If it does not crash in the Safe Mode, it is not a hardware issue.
