had two a couple days apart, no apparent cause. Fresh install of windows 7 ultimate
Edit: due to past experience I ran windows memory diagnostics and it came back clean.
I also cleaned about 112 PUP's off, that my friend put on here.

Could it be a power state issue?
Well, I'll work under that assumption and get this back to her. I changed the power settings around, though I couldn't get it to blue screen while I had it so I have no idea what it could be. If anyone does run through those and see a reason for the BSOD let me know.
The two dumps indicate a 0x7A - 185 which is a disk subsystem failure. This could be caused by power faults (internal or external). Make sure your battery is fully charged and use the AC adapter for extended use periods.
You might run a chkdsk to verify the file system is intact. The check will not run on the C: drive until you reboot. Also, use the AC adapter during this run. It cannot be interrupted. After that, run SFC /scannow to make sure the system drivers aren't corrupt. Pay particular attention to the rerun and reboot note if you receive errors on SFC.
I just today installed the intel rapid storage tech driver, do you think that could fix it?
No unless you actually use its features. You should also use type this in cmd to check your SMART status:
thenCode:WMICIt should only display OKs if your SMART status is ok. If not, you should backup and get a new system drive. On a side note, why did your friend put on PUPs on you pc?Code:diskdrive get status
It's not mine, it's hers. I couldn't get it to bluescreen and was at wits end so I came here. I'll check the smart data and share the results.
Edit: all okays.
yeah, I had done a fresh install since she had damaged the last one (took her 2 years) and within 5 days she had 112.
Sfc /scannow is hanging at 17% before failing with the message "windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation". I am running this command in an elevated CMD window.
