    BSOD shortly after bootup


    I have been having this ongoing problem for a while now which I've just been ignoring but I think it's time I probably ask for some help. My PC, more often than not, gets a BSOD witht he message "SYTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION"after boot up. Either
    a)I'll start up the computer, it'll boot into my desktop, I'll wait a few minutes, it'll BSOD, reboot, go back into desktop and then everything will be completely fine (I'll get the "windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown" error message).
    or
    b)I'll start the computer, it'll get passed my motherboard info screen, screen will be black (though my monitor light is still on and I can hear my PC running), I'll have to hard restart it and when I boot back up everything will be fine (I'll also get the "windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown" error message)

    I'm pretty sure I have all my drivers updated (windows update says so and geforce experience says I'm up to date as well, but is there anything else I need to check?).

    I've been told that this is either a problem with windows or my hardware. I planned to reinstall windows once I got my SSD but that wont be for a few months, and I've checked inside my PC for unconnected parts and stuff but everything seems to be fine.

    here are my specs if needed:
    CPU: AMD FX-6360 @ 3.9 GHz
    GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660
    RAM: 8GB DDR3 1333 (4*2)
    HDD: Western Digital Blue 1TB
    MOBO: ASUS M5A97 r2.0
    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
    PSU: 460W coolermaster elite atx12v

    I'll post a picture of the BSOD the next time it happens

    I would be checking your memory. I suggest you remove them both then just put one back in and see if the machine boots ok and then try the other. It may be something else but, it sure sounds like Memory trouble.

I am experiencing an occasional BSOD when booting the computer. This occurs shortly after logging on. A BSOD will flash very quickly so I can't really tell what's written. Then the system will reboot spontaneously, and then works fine thereafter. My previous installation (Win XP sp3 x86) also had a...
Hi, When booting up into Windows 7 (64 bit) my monitor stops showing video either right after the initial start up screens or if it survives that it may last a few minutes before. When it does it says signal lost and going into sleep mode and I can't get it to wake up from that. I've tried...

Hi there, Suddenly today, and to the best of my knowledge without adding any new programs/hardware, windows began crashing to the BSOD. It usually happens about 1 minute after logging in although sometimes it is immediate and very rarely I can use the computer for about 20 minutes. I don't know...

I was so close. The last few days have been spent loading a fresh copy of Win 7 32 bit on my 11 month old Dell laptop, adding apps., programs and just fine tuning and personalizing. Problems encountered have been an occasional "Windows cannot be found" upon boot up and something about an issue with...
