Too many BSoD

GFXguru · 17 Jun 2010

Hi to all,

I have too many BSod per day and every time my WhoCrashed give me this message :

Code:

Crash dump directory:  C:\Windows\Minidump
Crash  dumps are enabled on your computer.
The following dump files were found but could not  be read. These files may be corrupt:
C:\Windows\Minidump\MEMORY.DMP
No valid crash dumps have been found on your  computer

You can find my crash dump here:

Thanks to all

Unfortunately the DMP file is corrupt and unusable. If you have others upload them.

the problem is, each new DMP file are corrupt, it's not the first time. But I don't know why.
Have you any ideas ?

Please check this:

Windows 7:
Go to Start and type in "sysdm.cpl" (without the quotes) and press Enter
Click on the Advanced tab
Click on the Startup and Recovery Settings button
Ensure that "Automatically restart" is unchecked
Under the Write Debugging Information header select "Small memory dump (64 kB)" in the dropdown box
Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as "%systemroot%\Minidump" (without the quotes)
Click OK twice to exit the dialogs, then reboot for the changes to take effect.

Ok thanks for your help, but all that things was done before.
And the DMP files are still corrupts.
And although the path is "%systemroot%\Minidump" every new DMP file replace that one in the "Windows" folder. I don't know why. And the "Windows\Minidump" folder stay empty.

Are you using CCleaner or some other cleaning program?

GFXguru · 18 Jun 2010

Sorry there is no cleaning software (CCleaner or other) installed on this station.
To day at 18pm I had a BSoD, same probleme, the DMP file is corrupt for Whocrashed, and the DMP file was records outside the Minidump folder...
Or how to become crazy

Also, Memtest86+ gives no error.

Let's see if we can skirt around the lack of dmps somehow. Please run jcgriff2's scripts on TSF. That gives a ton of data we might be able to use somehow.

Thank, here what you asked:

Please remove any programs listed in this link: pxHelp20.sys programs

I see you have an old driver PxHlpa64.sys, and old drivers can cause BSODs.

Please update your Walcom Mouse or Touchscreen/pad drivers.

Your Brother USB drivers should be updated as well.

Do you see any Adaptec products installed? If so, update or remove them.

I will say I am just treading on hope here. Without the dmps, we are seriously hurt. As you can see, all I suggested was updating old drivers. We can hope that one of them is the cause.
