Windows Crash - Blue Screen

bruce974 · 30 Jun 2014

Hi all,
Today I had a serious problem with my new PC,
I tried to connect an external hard drive which was not recognised while it was on every other computer I got at home. I tried to restart the computer but the message "Shutting down computer" stayed for ages so I did a hard reboot, the computer restarted fine but after I tried to reconnect the external hard drive, the computer crashed and I would get this message after hard rebooting again:

Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown.

Detail of the problem:

Hi bruce974.

Click on the button below ....

It will download the DM log collector. Right click on the application and run as administrator. It will generate a .zip file on your desktop. Upload the .zip.

Thanks, but my antivirus blocked the download, suspicious item it says...

It is not suspicious. It is a tool that grabs the necessary data to debug your issue, developed by our forum administrator.

And unfortunately we cannot do anything without those files.

Allright, I disabled Avast in orderto download. I hereby attach the extract.

If it can help: it seems the issue was related to the USB hardware because no matter what I connected to USB port, it was not recognised, and the PC wouldn't restart. After Hard reboot the computer started fine and recognised all USB devices fine...

The BSODs are reported to be caused by Intel USB3 drivers, which is very recent. So it might not be the actual cause of the BSODs. Let us have another look.

Upload the list of all the third party drivers Using NirSoft DriverView :

Download and execute Driverview
View > Hide Microsoft Drivers
Edit > Select all
File > Save Selected Items
In the Save dialog, Set the path to desktop, Put "Driverview" in the name field, and save.
Zip the .txt file and upload it.

In the mean time, disable USB Selective Suspense.

USB Selective Suspend - Turn On or Off

Seeing the driverview file, I an tending to think that the issue is not necessarily the hardware, but may be some software/driver elements (called as bloatware) are causing the issue.

Intel(R) USB 3.0 Host Controller Switch Driver
Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Manager Driver
Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Processor Participant Driver
Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework PCH Participant Driver
Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Memory Participant Driver

So I'd recommend you to Clean Up Factory Bloatware, with a special reference to Point #13

13. Consider a Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 which is often better than getting a new computer considering how pre-installed bloatware can corrupt Windows 7 even if it's completely cleaned up.
