BSOD - Several BSOD errors - Frequently

Is it crashing before reaching desktop?

Driver verifier is supposed to crash, and we need to see those crash dumps. But if crashes take place before desktop, the dumps will not be recorded.

So, boot into safe mode and disable verifier. Then boot normally and try it again ... but dont select any driver provided by "microsoft" and "unknown" .... hopefully the subsequent crashes will occur after reaching the desktop.

Then, after it crashed a couple of times, post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

The Verifier enabled crash dump is not getting anything clearly, but it is giving us some hint of a failing storage controller.

Code:

fffff880`0318bad8  fffff880`012ef5c4 iaStorA+0x745c4
fffff880`0318baf8  fffff880`012e9843 iaStorA+0x6e843
fffff880`0318bb18  fffff880`012e9b7f iaStorA+0x6eb7f
fffff880`0318bb48  fffff880`012820fe iaStorA+0x70fe
fffff880`0318bb60  fffff800`02a9ca95 nt!KiIpiInterrupt+0x135
fffff880`0318bb78  fffff880`0127ca8b iaStorA+0x1a8b

iaStorA is the Intel(R) 5 Series 4 Port SATA AHCI Controller, (c:\windows\system32\drivers\iastora.sys). It is often troublesome. Now disable Verifier. It may not crash again, other than a reboot.

Get rid of intel rapid storage. First uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then Uninstall the driver from device manager.

1. Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
2. It will open the "computer management" window.
3. Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices up.
4. Expand "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
5. Select one Intel device item under it, right click, uninstall.
6. Continue the process for all Intel items under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
7. Now restart the computer. At restart, windows will auto configure the appropriate native system driver.

When done, upload your MSINFO32.nfo file.

1. Click on the start button
2. Type "msinfo32" (without quotes) in the search bar of the start menu, click the resulting link. It will open the System Information window.
3. File>Save. In the "File Name" filed, put "MSINFO32" (without Quote), give the save location to desktop, and click the "save" button.
4. Give the time for processing, it will save a .nfo file on your desktop.
5. Zip it, and upload it following the instruction.

OK ... try to post following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions. It will contain all that we need to see.

Congrats on removing RST successfully. Your storage controller is the system native controller now, which never causes a BSOD on itself.

Code:

Name    Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller
Driver    c:\windows\system32\drivers\msahci.sys (6.1.7601.17514, 30.38 KB (31,104 bytes), 21/11/2010 08:53)

But still it is crashing. It is also revealing that there are some issues with the display driver. Its failing.

Code:

fffff880`03f9cc98  fffff880`04ad6d72Unable to load image \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\atikmdag.sys, Win32 error 0n2
*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for atikmdag.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for atikmdag.sys
 atikmdag+0x1dd72

And the driver is really very old.

Code:

fffff880`04ab9000 fffff880`050de000   atikmdag T (no symbols)

Update your ATI/AMD display driver.
You can get it from the link in our forum, Latest AMD Catalyst Video Driver for Windows 7, or you may go to AMD Graphics Driver and Software and opt for Automatically Detect and Install the appropriate driver for your card.


During installation, you may opt for advanced installation, and install the display driver only, not the Catalyst Control Center.

Moreover, both the latest crashes indicated to "hardware".

Code:

BugCheck A, {11, 2, 0, fffff80002af2acc}

Probably caused by : hardware ( nt!KeUnstackDetachProcess+19c )

So you need to check the stability and performance of your hardware too.

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Hello there

When I try to run the furmark test my laptop crashed in like 2 min. What should I do.

Thank you.

Take the laptop to a technician ... ask him to replace the GPU. Or if it is within warranty, use it.
That is enough reason to indicate hardware failure in both of your latest dumps we checked.
