BSOD watching videos off the net.

[XxbowjrxX]

Hi all,

I started having these BSOD problems while watching videos from sites such as MegaVideo, Youtube and a few others. It started a few weeks ago and gradually got worse.

I have no other problems playing online games such as WoW and EVE online, also no other problems with other computer functions.

I have scanned my pc with Malwarebytes and AVG free, no viruses/adware/malware/spyware on my pc that i know of from these tests.

I have also tried pulling out and using the individual RAM sticks on their own and still having the issue.

Id also like to add I had a corruption problem where my roomates roaming profile accounts on his windows server 2008 box corrupted my own HDD, im not sure if that may be the problem and that i need a new HDD, that is why im here

Computer health in general is ok, RAM runs at about 25-30% most of the time, and all 4 of my CPU's run perfectly.

PC Specs:

-Windows 7 x64
-Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 760 @ 2.80 GHz 2.79 GHz
-4GB of RAM
-Nvidia Geforce 9500 GT
-360GB SATA HDD manufacturer is Seagate (I Think)

Not sure what else to add, if anything is missing please be sure to let me know, Also all minidump files are attached to the post as directed, Ive also added a Video Memory Stress Test. im not sure how much it will help, but it's there just in case someone can tell me what it means!

Best Regards.

Hi there!

This seem to be very straight forward. All of the dmp file blamed ewusbnet.sys, which when I search on google show that it is USB NDIS Miniport Driver - likely for Huawei Mobil Connect package. Seen with T-Mobile webConnect

Please either update, re-install the drive or remove it. Somehow, it is working improperly

Having issues with my system and didn't notice ttran's post. Please follow his advice first. There are some differences between our posts, so I'd advise reading both carefully.

This doesn't look good for your video card!

There are only 38 hotfixes on your system. There are a minimum of 55 available from Windows Update. Please visit Windows Update and get the remaining updates.

Your PCI Simple Communications Controller does not have a driver installed. Please visit the PC/motherboard manufacturer's website and install the chipset/motherboard drivers. Then check in Device Manager to ensure that the device has installed correctly.

I suggest starting all troubleshooting with the following diagnostic tests. They'll save you a lot of time and heartache if there is a hardware failure, and you'll have the disks on hand in case you need them in the future:

H/W Diagnostics:
Please start by running these bootable hardware diagnostics:
Memory Diagnostics (read the details at the link)
HD Diagnostic (read the details at the link)

Also, please run one of these free, independent online malware scans to ensure that your current protection hasn't been compromised: Malware (read the details at the link)

A quick look blames ewusbnet.sys - a component of your USB NDIS Miniport Driver - likely for Huawei Mobil Connect package. Seen with T-Mobile webConnect (most likely a USB "Air card"). The drivers are the most likely thing to go bad, but the device itself can be defective also.

Please do the following:
- Download a fresh copy of the software/drivers for this device from your service provider.
- Uninstall the current software/drivers from your system.
- Install the freshly downloaded software/drivers
- Monitor for further BSOD's

Thank you for the advice there, but that doesn't seem to be the problem, I just tried to watch a vid on Megavideo and it Bluescreened me about 2 minutes into the vid!

As for your info Usasma, im in progress of downloading some of the programs you have suggested.

I just like to ask one question, is my video card in need of replacement?

EDIT: Also like to add that it didnt BSOD me this time, its just froze up my pc :/

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Tested my wireless stick on my roomies pc, and it works perfectly, he can watch vids with no problem at all.

 

[usasma]

That rules out the hardware - so the next thing is the drivers. Remove the old one's and replace with freshly downloaded one's that are compatible with Win7.

As for your video card - I don't know. I am not familiar with the VMT test, but have read a little about it (I can't read the technical stuff on their website tho') Try these free tests:

FurMark download site: FurMark: VGA Stress Test, Graphics Card and GPU Stability Test, Burn-in Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net
FurMark Setup:
- If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup
- In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature"
Click "Go" to start the test
- Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first).
- Click "Quit" to exit

Prime95 download site: Free Software - GIMPS
Prime95 Setup:
- extract the contents of the zip file to a location of your choice
- double click on the executable file
- select "Just stress testing"
- select the "Blend" test. If you've already run MemTest overnight you may want to run the "Small FFTs" test instead. (run all 3 if you find a problem and note how long it takes to error out with each)
- "Number of torture test threads to run" should equal the number of CPU's times 2 (if you're using hyperthreading).
The easiest way to figure this out is to go to Task Manager...Performance tab - and see the number of boxes under CPU Usage History
Then run the test for 6 to 24 hours - or until you get errors (whichever comes first).
This won't necessarily crash the system - but check the output in the test window for errors.
The Test selection box and the stress.txt file describes what components that the program stresses.

 

[XxbowjrxX]

I'm still not ruling out the video card myself, reason being that it crashes and freezes on videos only, yet i can play games like WoW and Napoleon TW online without any troubles.

Usasma I am currently running Prime95, and will send the test results asap, also attatched to this post is the results of the furmark test. I wasnt sure how long i should run it for but i ran it till my card got to 90 Degrees Celcius.

The test ran for roughly 3 minutes to get it to 90 Degrees.

 

[usasma]

First, please check your video card to be sure it's clear of dust and that the fan is working. While 90ºC isn't unusual in FurMark, it's definitely getting to the top of the scale.

Then please run Furmark again. The object is to get the temperature to level out. The card was only at 90ºC for about 4½ seconds.

When it gets that hot, watch the screen. Either the card will level off the temperatures, or the screen will start to display problems - that's the point to shut it off.

Then tell us if the temps leveled off (not a problem) or the screen started to have display problems (is a problem).

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Hi again Usasma! Thank you for your continued help!

I ran Furmark again as requested, this time I left it running for roughly 10-12 minutes, Eventually it levelled itself out at roughly 102 degrees,i had no graphical issues whatsoever.

I also ran Prime95 for about 8 or 9 hours and the tests past. I have attached both tests results to this post.

Thanks!

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Just had another BSOD, attempted to watch another Mega Video vid.

Latest 4 BSOD files attached.

 

[usasma]

I'd say that the video card is OK - maybe the VMT test was a fluke?

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Ok lets rule out the vid card then, Maybe some dud drivers or my HDD is corrupt still?

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Also just tried to download a .avi file and it froze me.

EDIT: adding new dump files

 

[XxbowjrxX]

After extensive googling for 24 hours, I have come to the conclusion that ewusbnet.sys was the cause of my problem.

I have currently found no fix to my problem, If anyone has any info on how to fix this file, or an up to date download of the newest driver, please let me know.

I have also googled about new drivers, but they don't seem to work.

Any help on this matter would be appreciated, and thank you Usasma for your help and i hope you continue to help me with my problem

 

[usasma]

I've started on the last 7 dump files (there was 20 days between them and the next most recent). ewusbnet.sys is blamed in 5 of them.

Your ewusbnet.sys driver is probably the issue. There have been quite a few of these in the last week or so, so I suspect that they've run afoul of a Windows Update and have become incompatible. I would suggest obtaining the latest software/drivers for your mobile USB "Air card" from the phone company that provides the card.

If the phone company doesn't help, then we'll need the exact model of the USB device so that we can figure out what to try. There are 2 things we'll need:
- any numbers on the case of the device
- the hardware ID of the device from Device Manager
Those will help us to choose the correct drivers. More info on Huawei products is here: Technical Support - Welcome to Huawei.com

If you are able to get a link for newer drivers, be sure that they're from later than Oct 2009 - those are the dates of your current drivers.

[XxbowjrxX]

I spoke with support and apparently these are the lastest drivers for the device.

The numbers on the case are as follows:

Model number: E1762
Hardware ID: not sure where to find this, a little more description needed.

there are 2 other numbers on the back, but im not sure if you need them, ones is the IMEI and one is SN (serial number), which i dont think you need.

Thanks again Usasma!

Best regards.

 

[usasma]

Your's will be the the USB device (VID_ and PID__) from this canned speech of mine:

Obtaining Hardware ID's to help Identify Hardware
- Go to Start and type in "devmgmt.msc" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Expand the Network Adapters category by clicking on the + sign to the left of it
- Right click on the network adapter (if there's more than one, do this for all of them) and select Properties.
- Then select the Details tab.
- In the dropdown box, select "Hardware IDs" - and match the info to one of the following descriptions:
- - If the Hardware IDs description contains VEN_ and DEV_, then let us know the 4 characters immediately after the VEN_ and the 4 characters immediately after the DEV_
this is a PCI device and we'll look up the information at http://www.pcidatabase.com
- - If the Hardware IDs description contains VID_ and PID_, then let us know the 4 characters immediately after the VID_ and the 4 characters immediately after the PID_
this is a USB device and we'll look up the information at http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
If you don't have those items in the Hardware IDs description, copy down the entire string of the first entry and include that with your next post.

 

[zigzag3143]

I'm still not ruling out the video card myself, reason being that it crashes and freezes on videos only, yet i can play games like WoW and Napoleon TW online without any troubles.

Usasma I am currently running Prime95, and will send the test results asap, also attatched to this post is the results of the furmark test. I wasnt sure how long i should run it for but i ran it till my card got to 90 Degrees Celcius.

The test ran for roughly 3 minutes to get it to 90 Degrees.

90C????? is way hot. few more degrees and water boils.

 

[XxbowjrxX]

Ok the hardware ID's are:

VID_12D1 and PID_140C

Hope it helps, thanks!
