    BSOD randomly ntoskrnl and win32k.sys


    Hello!
    I got bluescreens once or twice a day. It happens randomly.
    Now suddenly the code changed. From win32k.sys too IRLQ something.

    Check the two latest bluescreens dumps.
    I bought a new graphics card for 2 months ago. I dont know if it is something with that!

    Thanks in advance!

    This is your Graphics Card driver which probably needs to be updated. Let me give you some suggestions.

    I am going to give you some links that will help you get a good clean install and not have any drivers you don't need that will conflict with other drivers. Download a WHQL driver from https://www.sevenforums.com/graphic-c...ndows-7-a.html . Once you have them downloaded, uninstall you current driver from control panel. next clean up any left over drivers from following this tutorial Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling and select only ATI Display Drivers. After you have done that and rebooted, install the new driver, only select custom install and install only what you have to. Very few people need most of what they include. You do not need the audio/HDMI drivers as you already have that in your Motherboard drivers. Unless there is some reason you need them, the only thing you really need is the Display Driver.

    can you tell me what Graphics Card you had before this one. I am going to hazard a guess and say you bought this card around August 16. That is when your dump files started and have been pretty steady since.

    I would also like you to make sure your Samsung SSD Firmware is up to date and is having no issues. There were a lot of indications in the dump files of I/O errors. I would like you to check your Western digital drive with the western Digital Diagnostic test, Data Lifeguard. They have 2 versions of the test, you will get better results with the version for DOS, as you will boot from the media you create and it will be able to test the hard drive while not in use. If you can't get that to work, just use the Windows version which will install and check the disk. You can download either version at WD Support / Downloads / SATA & SAS / WD Black

    Also, please open a elevated command prompt ( click start, type cmd in the search box, right click on the cmd entry and select run as administrator) in the black box that opens, copy/paste sfc /scannow. If you decide to type it, notice the space between the sfc and the /. It is a system file checker which will scan your system files and attempt to correct any missing or corrupt files. What we want are the results to say windows found no integrity violations. If it says files were found but could not be repaired, close the box, reboot and run it again, after opening the administrative command prompt. You may have to reboot and run it three times for it to repair all system files. If it can't repair them after 3 reboots, let us know.

    Thank you!

    Please make sure all of your Windows updates have been installed, and until we get this straightened out, uninstall BitDefender With the BitDefender utility ( Uninstall Bitdefender ) and replace it with Microsoft Security Essentials (Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows ).

    Hello!
    I removed Bitdefender but got one error. Uploading it!
    No errors on the WD disk.
    I've already update the firmware of my ssd!
    Hope this will fix it!

    jojjen, please understand, I only make recommendations which you can choose to follow or not. I only recommend Security Essentials because it has never caused a BSOD. So, we would be safe in that area.
