    BSOD Randomly getting two different BC codes: c000021a and 3b


    Starting about 2 weeks ago, my computer started to freeze, randomly restart, and getting a blue screen all of sudden.

    I first thought formatting the computer will resolve the issue so I formatted the computer on 06/24/2014, but after I formatted the computer and reinstalled the window updates that were suggested by window, it started to give me blue screens again. So I figured this is special issues that needs to be fixed.

    I know this is huge favor to ask for. I really do appreciate your time in looking into this matter with me.
    I only have a general understanding about software/hardware of the computer and those knowledge is very limited. But I will try my best to follow your opinion and I will try my best to understand and fix the issues on my side too!

    Thank you so much for reading this thread! I give my best appreciation to those of who takes their valuable time to look into this problem with me!

    I've attached a DM Log file and below is the details of the two errors I've got so far.

    If this does not provide stability.

    Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.

    The goal is to test all the RAM sticks and all the motherboard slots.

    Check your motherboard manual to ensure the RAM sticks are in the recommended motherboard slots. Some motherboards have very specific slots required for the number of RAM sticks installed.

    If you get errors, stop the test and continue with the next step.

    1. Remove all but one stick of RAM from your computer (this will be RAM stick #1), and run Memtest86 again, for 7 passes.
    *Be sure to note the RAM stick, use a piece of tape with a number, and note the motherboard slot.
    If this stick passes the test then go to step #3.

    2. If RAM stick #1 has errors, repeat the test with RAM stick #2 in the same motherboard slot.
    *If RAM stick #2 passes, this indicates that RAM stick #1 may be bad. If you want to be absolutely sure, re-test RAM stick #1 in another known good slot.
    *If RAM stick #2 has errors, this indicates another possible bad RAM stick, a possible motherboard slot failure or inadequate settings.
    3. Test the next stick of RAM (stick #2) in the next motherboard slot.
    *If this RAM stick has errors repeat step #2 using a known good stick if possible, or another stick.
    *If this RAM stick has no errors and both sticks failed in slot#1, test RAM stick #1 in this slot.
    4. If you find a stick that passes the test, test it in all the other motherboard slots.

    If Part 2 testing shows errors, and all tests in Part 3 show errors, you will need to test the RAM sticks in another computer and/or test other RAM in your computer to identify the problem.

    In this way, you can identify whether it is a bad stick of RAM, a bad motherboard, or incompatibility between the sticks.
       Information
    Errors are sometimes found after 8 passes.

       Tip
    Do this test overnight, before going to bed.

    UPDATE! Follow up on 07/05/2014


    For past week, I've been working on what koolkat77 has advised me to do.
    Here is my feedback on which steps I went through.

    He wanted me to update the older version of drivers and he generously provided me with the links, but I found that most of the links are not valid ones. Still, I had an idea about what's causing all these BSOD.

    So I jumped onto next step and started to completing deleting all unnecessary softwares using Revo uninstaller. It seemed like its completely taking off those softwares that are causing BSOD so I found this tool very useful.

    Then, I ran through virus scanning and computer cleaner software. It caught adwares, malwares, viruses that seemed like cause of this problem.

    After I went through these steps, I can clearly tell that computer is giving me less BSOD. I said LESS because time to time, computer is still giving me BSOD... Whenever that happens, I run the cleaner and virus scanner again. It seems like it gets better at the moment but still gives me the BSOD randomly.

    By the way, whenever new Window update pop up, I update it right away but it seems like there always is a new window update everytime I shut down the computer. Is there anything to do with BSOD happening with these window updates? Other than what I've done so far, any recommendation on what to do?

    Thank you!

    That's right.
