Windows 7: Not 1 single BSOD

SuperiorBeen · 17 Jun 2009

I had at least one BSOD with each build! (usually right after install)

For example with 7232 I had repeated BSOD's! I had to boot in safe mode and install the latest drivers for windows 7 from nvidia and realtek web sites! Now everything is working great! Those drivers bundled with Windows 7 need to be updated!

PS: With Vista64 I had only one BSOD in 1 year - because of a failed nvidia driver!

I almost for get what the BSOD is until I had to sure my wife's laptop with XP on it, now that that sucker has 2 gigs of ram its going to become the next Windows7 runner.

I had a couple in one of the 70xx builds, I can't remember which one though, it was the video driver and I haven't had one since.

I'm happy to say I never had a BSOD in Windows 7. My last one was on XP while trying to install the Zune 3.1 Software. Windows 7 never went through that problem though.

See, i haven't had 1 single BSOD since I started using Windows 7 build 7000.

Has any1 else had as much good luck as I have or am I 1 of very few?

I've had no BSOD's that can be blamed upon the OS. I've had several, but all my fault, not the OS's. They were all from overclocking too high.

No BSOD 7100, 7201, or 7229. I'm a happy user eagerly looking forward to the final!

The builds are built with certain sets of hardware as a basis. If you've got this basis, then the chances of a BSOD aren't as likely as if you're using hardware that wasn't included in the build testing.

But there's lot's of other stuff that can cause BSOD's - so consider yourself lucky! :0)
