BSOD issues with HP Pavilion a6600f desktop
Hi everyone,
This is Julie in AZ. I am attaching the minidump zip for my BSOD problems with my desktop. Hopefully any help I can get regarding this issue will help other people with the same model of computer.
I do need to note that I have installed an NVIDIA video card in my PCI-Express x16 slot: a GeForce 9400 GT, so I can play Wow and run Daz Studio better with my machine.
The problems I have been experiencing are the following.
Since I bought the Win 7 3-License Family Pack in November, I have installed this on three systems: my son's Dell Inspiron desktop, my husband's self-built machine and my HP. Both the Dell and my husband's desktop run Win 7 great with no problems. Indeed, my son's Dell is running better on Win 7 than it ever did on XP.
My HP was originally sold with Vista 64 bit, which I removed after about a week of fighting with it. I've had XP on it for the most part since then. The system is about a year and a half old.
I currently have Windows 7 64 bit on it. This is the fourth install of the OS, since the first one eventually was nuked after I got frustrated with the constant BSOD and no seeming solution in sight. After 2 more failed attempts to install; the installs BSOD-ing out in the middle, I did a clean install (after formatting the harddrive) and installed this current instance of Windows 7.
Right now, all this machine has on it is the following: Windows 7 64 bit; Video Driver for NVIDIA GeForce 6400GT (current as of the website); avast! Antivirus; Firefox 3.5.5., HotCPU Tester, Test My Hardware and World of Warcraft. I am using stock Win 7 Drivers for everything else in my system.
Anyway, the BSODs have happened when the system starts up, it crashes out and restarts before the login screen comes up, it has crashed when the login screen comes up, and does seem to crash out at random times when open and not running anything. Of course, it has crashed trying to run Wow as well.
The attached minidump logs are the last 4 times it has crashed with this fresh install. If someone can make sense of this for me and give me a suggestion on what I might try, that would be greatly appreciated.
I am currently downloading a driver for my Mobo from Nvidia, hoping it might help.
Thanks folks!
