Completely uninstall any 3rd party antivirus and firewall apps as a test. This should fix things.

I would, but I don't have any antivirus or firewall apps installed.

Another minidump, pointing towards Directx.

Did a fresh install last night, then I installed just the latest drivers, firefox, winamp, and winrar, and I got 3 more crashes since then.

Even more dumps.

Hi Griffon

While we are both TG and myself willing to debug dmps forever it is obvious that something is still amiss. If you have done all the hardware things and are still getting crashes a some point you have to start thinking software. Did you do a clean install?

Is there something odd about this system? a raid, OC, a card reader, many external USB devices, anything. this many dumps with this many different causes can really be one or two things. We are missing something

Yes, I did do a fresh install last night. Doing a fresh install has actually appeared to only make things worse, since I have gotten twice as many crashes after.

There's nothing unusual that I can think of, only usb devices I have are keyboard/mouse, and my wireless card. I'm not OC, and I don't have any other hardware besides the basic things.

Then I'd look at all bios settings and even update it if possible.

After updating, make sure the Vdimm and timings are correct for your specific RAM modules.

Use the spd tab of CPU-Z to find out which, then visit the maker's site for the correct values.

My ram was already at the recommended settings, with the exception of the voltage, which I had already adjusted. I dropped the voltage down to 2.1 from 2.2, and I haven't crashed in about an hour, so I guess I will wait and see.

If it is an actual hardware problem I think that it is the RAM. I am unable to boot with them in the 1&3 slot, and apparently many other people are having trouble with this ram/mobo combo.
