ntoskrnl.exe BSOD, Various bugchecks, seemingly random,There is no joy
At random intervals (anywhere between 20 minutes to a week), I'll get BSODs. Sometimes it's while playing League of Legends, sometimes while perusing reddit, and sometimes it's while i'm not at the computer at all. I've run checks on my hard drive, updated drivers, taken out my RAM and used both solo, tried scanning with Malwarebytes, but nothing seems to be working. After downloading BlueScreenView, I've noticed that ntoskrnl.exe seems to be taking the blame.
Sometimes a crash won't even involve a BSOD, but will go straight to a black screen that says "PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable". As if my computer no longer recognizes my hard drive. This is my second hdd on this laptop, and this HDD is not quite a year old. Help me Windows Seven Forums, you're my only hope!
Read the require posting material, and I hope I'm posting this correctly.
Edit: Just crashed after posting and forgot to mention that it is a very slow crash. First, Chrome and Windows Explorer stop, and then all the other programs go. I can actually still message people via Steam while it is happening.
