    I ran through the Windows UI and checked both "Automatically fix file system errors" and "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors".

    Is there any way to verify that the hard disk indeed has a problem? This is a brand new hard disk (the entire rig is brand new)

    Please reboot your system and try the short DST again.
    Please open an admin command prompt and enter "chkdsk c: /r" (without quotes) (assuming C: is the windows partition letter)
    Reboot if asked

    Thanks,

    1. The Short DST fails consistently also after reboot, with the same behavior (hangs at 90% and then fails)

    2. "chkdsk /r" like you suggested reports no problems

    So what next? I am continuing to get random BSODs, just got another one this morning.

    Thanks, Ephi

    Disconnect the hard drive and see if you get crashes
