seemingly random bsod, more often when gaming (WoW)

h47f4c3, welcome to Seven Forums. I will see if I can help. You have 5 dump files. one recently, the others are at least 3 months old and one is dated 12/31/07. What's that about? Windows 7 was released to the public in 2009.

the only recent dump was 10-23-14 and it says

Code:

asmtxhci
start             end                 module name
fffff880`04b0b000 fffff880`04b75000   asmtxhci T (no symbols)           
    Loaded symbol image file: asmtxhci.sys
    Image path: asmtxhci.sys

That is the ASmedis USB 3.0 driver. look on the motherboard's web site and see if there is a more recent version. if not, you can try ASMedia Technology Inc. ????

When finished with that

Open a elevated command prompt ( click start, type cmd in the search box, right click on the cmd entry and select run as administrator) in the black box that opens, copy/paste sfc /scannow. If you decide to type it, notice the space between the sfc and the /. It is a system file checker which will scan your system files and attempt to correct any missing or corrupt files. What we want are the results to say windows found no integrity violations. If it says files were found but could not be repaired, close the box, reboot and run it again, after opening the administrative command prompt. You may have to reboot and run it three times for it to repair all system files. If it can't repair them after 3 reboots, let us know.

No, this is a system file checker that checks protected system files and attempts to replace missing files or repair corrupted files. What you ran was something else.

Also, given the problems you just told me about, it would be wise to run memtest.

Please Run Memtest86+

   Information

Please download from this site only http://www.memtest.org/ in the middle of the page are the Download links, you can download the ISO.zip or the Auto USB Flash Drive installer.zip

Extract the Zip file. If you chose the ISO image, burn it to a CD using Windows Disk Image Burner or any Image burner you may have. If you downloaded the Auto USB installer, extract it, insert your USB 2.0 Flash Drive and take note of the drive letter. Run the installer, select the Flash Drive Letter, check the format box and press next. It will install memtest86+ to a flash drive. You can use either V4.20 or V5.01. Boot from your selected media. If you use V5.01 it will tell you to press certain buttons at the start, please press no buttons. The test will begin on it's own and continue to run until you stop it. It needs to run for 8 complete passes or until you receive an error. If you receive an error, stop the test. Even 1 error is a fail. Each pass tests a different part of the ram and each of the 10 tests in each pass tests something different. It takes a minimum of 8 passes to completely test the ram, more passes are better. It is quite a long test and will take several hours depending on how much ram you have. Due to the time length it is best to run overnight. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask

No problem, just let us know. be ready, it will take you around 20 hours to run 8 passes, but that's what's necessary, all run at one time or until you get an error. Any error and you can stop the test.

Before you do, make sure your system is set to create Small Memory Dumps.
Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD

No problem. That's what I'm supposed to do. I forget sometimes though.
