    BSOD when installing/ multitasking


    Ok, I've been working on my new setup and I keep getting BSOD when I go to install large-ish programs/ games. I've been able to install Windows, complete the Updates, and install my anti-virus (AVG).

    When I go to start installing video games (through steam), I get a BSOD.

    Everything in my computer is new (from tigerdirect) save for my video card and my HDD.

    I was getting blue screens on my old setup and that's what prompted me to upgrade, but i probably should have checked to make sure it wasnt the HDD before I choose not to replace it (i dont think its the video card, but im not certain)

    Hi sasquatchalex.

    Test your RAM modules for possible errors. Run memtest86+ for at least 8 consecutive passes.

    If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

    If no error is shown, enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers. Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.

       Information
    Why Driver Verifier:
    It puts a stress on the drivers, ans so it makes the unstable drivers crash. Hopefully the driver that crashes is recorded in the memory dump.

    How Can we know that DV is enabled:
    It will make the system bit of slow, laggy.

       Warning
    Before enabling DV, make it sure that you have earlier System restore points made in your computer. You can check it easily by using CCleaner looking at Tools > System Restore.

    If there is no points, make a System Restore Point manually before enabling DV.

       Tip



    Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any.

    When i activated Driver Verifier, I could not boot all the way to the desktop. I was able to turn it off in safe mode.

    I tried a second time with the same result

    Disable wingman profiler and steam from startup and try driver verifier.

    I dont see any reason behind that. Still, boot normally now and let us see another DM log output.

    Still the Memory related BSODs are continuing.

    ATM we can try to eliminate the possibilities (our attempt to get a certainty did not work) only. First, Uninstall AVG using AVG Remover. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.

    If it does not stop the BSODs, remove the RAT5 mouse and apply a normal one there.

    Let us know how these go.
