    BSOD or 100% CPU usage with normal PC use, error 0X0a


    I recently replaced my original desktop hard drive about a month ago. Things have been working great for the first few weeks, but this last week I started to get a combination of two things: BSOD and 100% CPU usage which would cause me to have to restart my desktop in order to get it working again. Things I have done to try and alleviate the problem is I have updated my drivers to the latest drivers that are available for my hardware, I have ran RAM and CPU tests and passed their tests with no problems detected, I have run multiple virus/malware scans to make sure I don't have an infection and I have ran my desktop in safe mode to determine if the same thing happens in safe mode. I have used the desktop in safe mode for 24 hours on more than one occasion and I never get the BSOD or lockup, however when I do a normal boot up within the hour one of the two things that I mentioned previously happens which is the BSOD or the 100% CPU lockup. Here is the dump file after my latest BSOD...

    Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiIdentifyPfn+23f )

    ---------
    Run a minimum of 8 consecutive passes, preferably overnight, or until errors occur using MemTest86+.

    Memtest has run for 38 hrs, 10 passes, 0 errors...any chance that memory corruption could mean hard drive memory as well and not just RAM?

    Memory corruption will generally be related to RAM or gfx memory but its possible to be HDD related through pagefile, if RAM ok then work through some more hardware tests starting with GFX

    Heres one method

    Have tested with FurMark for 25 minutes and no overheating problems or artifacts so far, not sure how long I needed to test with this.
