Various random BSODs, usually when doing light activity
Hi Guys,
I'm struggling a bit with this one. I've done lots of googling over the past few months and not found a solution.
I put together a long overdue upgrade a couple of months ago.
4770k (second hand)
Z87x-OC (second hand)
16GB Mushkin DDR3
R9 290 (second hand)
Used old:
240gb SSD
2x 750GB HDD in RAID1
I'm having a few problems with the PC:
I've had about 20 BSODs in the last 3 months. These mostly seem to occur when doing light activity. I don't think I've had one occur with heavy load (gaming etc.)
I've also had problems with not resuming from sleep - power comes on but monitor does not wake. Happens very intermittently.
BSODs:
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
SPECIAL_POOL_DETECTED_MEMORY_CORRUPTION
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION
CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Caused by:
gdrv.sys
ntoskrnl.exe

ntoskrnl.exe
atikmdag.sys
ntoskrnl.exe
fltmgr.sys
watchdog.sys
atikmdag.sys
Ntfs.sys
ntoskrnl.exe
I'm run Memtext86+ for >48 hours straight with no errors.
I've run Prime95 for >24 hours with no problems.
Temperatures are fine (water cooled)
I've tried different graphics drivers (14.4, 14.7 beta, 13.12) with a full Display Driver Uninstaller clean each time.
I implemented driver verifier on 16/9/14, which identified the Gigabyte utilities (gdrv.sys) as problematic - I've uninstalled these (which is bloody annoying as I want to run my fans slower than bios will allow.....). I didn't have any BSOD implicating gdrv.sys before turning on driver verifier.
But this hasn't cured the problem.
I don't run antivirus.
Your help is much appreciated.
Code:Welcome to WhoCrashed (HOME EDITION) v 5.02 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This program checks for drivers which have been crashing your computer. If your computer has displayed a blue screen of death, suddenly rebooted or shut down then this program will help you find the root cause and possibly a solution. Whenever a computer suddenly reboots without displaying any notice or blue screen of death, the first thing that is often thought about is a hardware failure. In reality, on Windows most crashes are caused by malfunctioning device drivers and kernel modules. In case of a kernel error, many computers do not show a blue screen unless they are configured for this. Instead these systems suddenly reboot without any notice. This program will analyze your crash dumps with the single click of a button. It will tell you what drivers are likely to be responsible for crashing your computer. It will report a conclusion which offers suggestions on how to proceed in any situation while the analysis report will display internet links which will help you further troubleshoot any detected problems.
