Windows 7 freezes randomly, ends up in stop Error-BSOD/force-resets

docsanchez · 30 Oct 2013

something's still wrong though. Had a freeze resulting in a bsod without creating a dumpfile and another freeze just now. I'll keep you posted.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy.

Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.

Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.
If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Also, make it sure that nothing is Overclocked.

I've alrdy ran memtest before (7 passes) - no errors, and I'm not using a gfx card atm. I'll do the other things tomorrow, also I've made a new SF-diagnostics zip file with new dumpreps in it, the last 3 blue screens are fairly recent if you want to check them out. (please)

Also the crashes are fairly weird. Just today I was playing binding of isaac for a few hours and I was also using another .exe application and nothing happen. After a bsod it crashed again only 10 minutes later. It#s rly odd.

Sorry to say it mate, but the latest BSOD is still a stop 0xF4, Storage issue.

Now you should take care of the bent fork teeth. Otherwise the BSODs will continue to occur.

ok and how do I do that exactly? I mean, it was'nt bent in the middle or anything, it was just standing up a bit more than the other ones, and if it wasn't straight by now - cause the sata cable fits fine - how do I straighten it out more? I think I should just replace the HDD and/or the SATA cable :/

Yes, that is it.
