    OK, the latest AMD driver, Omega 14.12 dated 12/8/14, doesn't say WHQL anywhere that I can see.

    I know, I looked at it. I can only assume it is as I've seen other places say it was. I am looking now to try to see how to tell. As of right now, I am assuming like you, if it doesn't say Beta, it's WHQL.

    stavesacre03, why AMD does not say, I have no idea. It is my understanding that in order to be signed, it must be WHQL. You can install an unsigned driver, but you will get a warning before it installs.

    Steve and Jack, I just wanted to share a quick update. I'm now 14 days since the clean install and this long process of adding programs. No BSOD to date. Since I previously was going no more than 3 days without a BSOD I THINK it's safe to say all hardware is fine as is all software/drivers I've loaded so far (all but HDHomerun were installed more than 3 days ago). I've basically done everything except connecting to x-box 360 (windows media center extender) and installing Plex. My plan is to add the x-box as WMC extender on Wed and then install Plex Media Server on Sat. About the only other things I haven't installed yet are Steam, Adobe Reader, MS Office and Garmin Express.

    I have to believe a BSOD is coming though, as the point of this whole process was to identify what was causing my blue screens. I'm making Macrium backup images at each step (before I add something new). My question is if a BSOD happens and based on my install plan I should be able to say it is either connection to x-box or Plex, for example, should I revert to the most recent Macrium image, or should I uninstall what I believe is causing the BSOD at that point and see if that is enough? We can cross that bridge when/if we get there, but thought I'd ask now so I'm prepared. Thanks-Tim

    stavesacre03, I can only answer this way. If it were me, I would uninstall it and try to uninstall everything I could find that came with it. If I still had BSODs, I would go to the Macrium images. I would also encourage you to use another imaging program as well. My Primary is Macrium too, and think it is the easiest and probably the best, but I also use Paragon, just in case. My philosophy is it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. You are free to choose whichever program you prefer, I only told you what I do. The free version of Acronis is also available if you have a Western Digital or Seagate hard drive. The free version is not so bad, but I would never put the full paid version on.

    Well that does make good sense, thanks for the reply. And I will install Paragon or Acronis to be safe.

    While it does not always work like you want it to, you can manually create a restore point before installing the program. System Restore Point - Create It has saved my bacon several times.

    Yes, I've used that manually a few times as well. Can't hurt for redundancy.

    I'm back with an update. I believe I have everything re-installed, including Plex, HDHomerun, x-box 360 as media extender, etc. Zero BSOD. I'm at a loss. I've done nothing different except used a SP1 iso instead of my retail disc to install, and I also replaced the DVD-RW that wasn't burning correctly. Everything else was identical--same hardware, drivers, etc. I've created Macrium and Acronis images every 3 days and installed basically one or two programs every 3 days for the past 35 days.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about no BSOD, but really baffled about why not. I've been at this since December, replaced multiple components and just wish I knew why it's working now....
