    Four BSOD's yesterday, one today so far - help appreciated


    Hi all. I've been using avidemux (video editor) a lot lately and suspected that it was the cause of yesterday's BSOD's. However, this morning I simply left the PC to download a file, went to have breakfast and came back to a BSOD.
    I've done the SF_Diagnostic_Tool procedure. Many thanks to those prepared to take a look.
    Edit: May be of interest - I've run my BIOS utility and it tells me it doesn't need updating.

    This bugcheck usually points to a problem with the hard drive/s. Lets check.

    Code:

    Thanks for your time, Golden. However, I bit the bullet a couple of days ago and reinstalled Win7. So far so good. I ran Windows own CHKDSK on drive D last night and it found no problems.

    No problem. The disk might still have some underlying mechanical defect, however, so if you get some time it might still be worth running SeaTools at some point.
