Windows 7: New installation of windows 7 keeps crashing, different types of BSOD

Hi Morten,
The CD's are your starting point, (they could be quite old).
So as soon as you install you should go straight to the manufacturers website, for EACH component, which is why Axe0 told you to update your Bios.
Then the majors >>Chipset & Graphics >> finally the all the others
IN THE ABOVE ORDER

Then run driver verifier, if you have a problem

The log i was referring to is part of the posting instructions output.
As you have it on your desktop
goto the updatelog section.
Sizes are shown in the left hand column.

Windows Update is TRYING to install a newer driver for Benq and its failing, thats why i posted the Turn Off instructions.

I don't have the CDs.

I thought I wouldn't need them anymore, as I was going to buy a new computer, but I spent the money on paying off a debt instead. Now I'm trying to salvage this old piece. If this cannot be done without the CDs, I will forfeit.

Hi Morten
Thats why were here,
NO need to forfiet

You have all the BASE info you need,
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY
A RETAIL W7 PRO licence
THIS CAN BE MOVED TO >>ANY<< computer. (as good as GOLD)

Just follow the instructions
dont worry about the detail, (its only us blowing our trumpets) we'll get you up and running.

Roy

I'm ready to start over with a new installation and follow the instructions. I will start in install now and get back to you after the install of win7 and BEFORE anything else :)

If you havn't started allready get the W7 SP1 download direct from MS.
and see this post, Thrash's reply
windows update

Roy

Will do that.

I now have a completely pure installation (I write from a different computer) without internet.
I have a USB stick with the windows update files for manual update (ThrashZone's instructions). On that stick are also driver files for the mobo and GFX. Drivers for my CPU are not available at AMD's website. I'm not sure such drivers exist as standalone. I don't know about smaller components such as I/O and stuff. So please tell me what to install.

From what you've all said so far, my plan would be like this:

• Deactivate WU auto-update
• Deactivate sleep/hibernate
• Install mobo drivers using all-in-1 installer
• Reboot
• Install network adapter driver
• Reboot
• Install nvidia GTX 460 driver (downloaded)
• Reboot
• Sequentially manual install win7 update files (as ThrashZone)
• Reboot
• Install Avast Free Antivirus
• Reboot
• Plug to internet
• Scan for updates with WU

Edit: Maybe I have misunderstood the all-in-1 driver from ASRock > 870 Extreme3 R2.0. Installing it did not make my network adapter work, and I see now there is a "Atheros Lan driver ver:1.0.0.45" on the same website. Should I just get every single item on that website?

Hi Morten,
You have 2 internet Network adapters
Ethernet
Wireless

The Ethernet ones should be on your All-in-One
Now your Wifi
can you open Device manager
Network Adapter/Problem/Other
right click > properties > details > Hardware ids
Copy/paste the PCI\VEN details
