random BSODs, unknown cause...
hi guys, i have been receiving BSOD errors pretty much since i built my pc in january this year.
so after a few weeks i noticed some drivers were missing. so i installed them. this solved the issue for a month... but they eventually came back. these past 2 months they have escalated in frequency to the point that i get one almost every time the computer is on. this has been very frustrating as i have lost many hours work from unexpected shutdowns. i have taken it to the local repair guy and he has had no luck reproducing any similar crashes amidst running it for a week straight. he suggested that the problem might be caused by a dodgy ethernet cable or the modem. this has been disproven as the crashes can even appear when disconnected from the internet. i myself have memory tested the computer and got 1 pass using memtest86+. i really have no clue how to solve this problem and have tried everything i can think of since it was built in january. i would really appreciate any help i can get.
edit: i noticed the crashes are more likely when running either google chrome or windows media player.
