    BSOD + MiniDump - Please help on analysis


    Hi everyone.
    I have been using Windows 7 for a long time now, and recently I am facing BSOD.
    I had an old 160 GB IDE HDD on my system, which was out of order, so I replaced it with a new 500 GB SATA one. Then I installed Windows 7 on the new HDD, but since then I am getting BSOD.

    I have had 6 BSODs in the las t 8 hours.
    I wonder if anyone could help me to find the cause of the problem.
    I have attched two of the minidump files.
    ------------------
    And I have a suggesstion:
    If anyone could write a post describing how to analyze minidump files and made it sticky, it would help many users.

    Thanks in advance.

    dyako - please don't host your own copy of a program without permission and without giving credit to the author. In this case the program is BlueScreenView by Nir Sofer of NirSoft - freeware utilities: password recovery, system utilities, desktop utilities

    There's plenty of stickies at the top of this forum here: Crash and lockup debug 'How To' - Windows 7 Forums
    The how-to that I developed is here (of course I prefer it!): WinDbg Analysis Report
    But, the gist of this is that BSOD analysis is a lot of work and requires a lot of experience. If you'd like to learn, just hang out here and ask questions about what we're doing.

    There are 2 memory dumps - a STOP 0x124 and a STOP 0xFE
    The STOP 0x124 error info is here: BSOD Index
    Suggestions for troubleshooting STOP 0x124 errors are here: https://www.sevenforums.com/crash-loc...-what-try.html

    The STOP 0xFE error info is here: BSOD Index
    This is an error that points to your USB drivers

    So, what sort of USB devices do you have plugged into your system?
    Have you checked Device Manager to see if there are any problems - especially with USB devices?
    What else have you done to your system recently?

    Also, please remove or update these older drivers that were loaded at the time of the crash. Don't use Windows Update or the Update drivers function of Device Manager.
    Please use the following instructions to locate the most currently available drivers to replace the one's that you uninstall OR remove:
    How To Find Drivers:
    - I have listed links to most of the drivers in the code box below. Please use the links there to see what info I've found about those drivers.
    - search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
    - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
    - - The most common drivers are listed on this page: Driver Reference
    - - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: http://www.carrona.org/drvrdown.html

    Here's the older drivers. Please pay particular attention to any dated 2008 or earlier. Those from 2004 and 2005 are just plain dangerous!!!:

    Thanks usasma.
    That was a good reply.
    I think I had a problem with my clock and BIOS settings. I loaded optimized defaults in the BIOS and the problem has gone (at least till now).
    I should just wait to see if I will have BSOD again or not.

    Thanks again for your answer.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately I have the same problem again.
    I have had 3 or 4 BSODs since last post, and all of them were caused by halmacpi.dll.

    I have a question:
    Is it possible to get this error, because of CPU temperature?
    I have an AMD Athlon X2 5000+ CPU, and when I monitor it's temperature using Core Temp, the temperature is very high:
    Core #0: Average 51, highest 68 (degrees)
    Core #1: Average 56, highest 71 (degrees).

    I got the highest temperatures while copying some data, and they were not momentarily. I mean I had Core #1 temperature over 70 for quite a while.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    It is entirely possible that the over 70บ C heat caused BSOD's.
    You must fix the cooling of your CPU - do you have adequate thermal paste applied between the CPU and cooler? Do you have an adequate cooler and fan on the CPU? Do you have adequate ventilation in the case?

    Thanks for your reply.
    Both side panels of the case are open, in fact I never use them!
    But there is some dust between the radiator layers. I should clean them, and apply some thermal paste too. I haven't applied any paste since I bought my CPU (which is about 3 years)!!!

    I will do these and see what happens.
    Thanks again for your help.
