Huge amount of BSOD need help please!! Using WinDbg debugging tools.

[FreedomV]

Hi!
My PC is having alot of BSOD everyday and not only once usually 1-6times/day, its getting rly annoying, and specially during gamming.
I started to look up information how to fix this and started using WinDbg but I kinda dont understand the codes, so would be rly nice if someone can help me with this and how to solve the BSOD.
Here is one of the minidump files.

Let me know if theres any other info u guys need. Thanks!

 

[yowanvista]

Please follow these instructions
http://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-debugging/96879-blue-screen-death-bsod-posting-instructions.html

Additionally run a RAM test
http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

 

[FreedomV]

While I was running "Windows NT6 BSODv3.03" I received a BSOD, but did it again and it went well.
My PC is 3years old now
and the last time I did a format were maybe 2years ago not sure.
Thanks for your reply! I will start Memtest now and let ya know the result as soon as possible. Once again thanks!

 

[FreedomV]

Ran a memtest for 4hours and it showed 9errors 5passed , is it possible to show the result of the test?, couldnt find any logs at my usb memory sticks.

You've got defective RAM, simply replace your RAM sticks.

 

[FreedomV]

Did another memtest tonight for 8hours and the test passed 0 errors, weird x.x.
Should I do another memtest with bios setting all auto on these RAM??
Currently I have them just a lil overclocked.

Yes stop any overclocking and test each RAM stick individually.

 

[FreedomV]

Went to bios and changed the RAM sticks to auto instead of manual, and lowered the voltage etc for RAM to auto instead of manual and did a memtest for more than 8hours, 10passed 0 errors. But the computer freeze(and unstable) when it start windows, seems like I must have the RAM on manual/overclock.

 

[Dave76]

Please fill in your system specs, it will help us to analyze the crashes.
You can use one of these to find your specs.
System Info - See Your System Specs
Speccy Free System information Utility

Any errors during memteset86+ is too many.
These can sometimes be resolved by adjusting the settings.

This information on your system will also help.
Can you download CPUZ and post a snip of the CPU, Mainboard, Memory, and SPD tabs.
For posting the information , enter 'Snipping tool' in the Start button > Search box, hit enter. Select the area you want to post and save to a convenient place.
How to Post a Screenshot in Seven Forums

Have you been checking your temperatures?
Use Real Temp , for Intel CPU, to check the CPU temps when at idle, under load and/or testing.
Let us know the minimum and maximum temps you get.

Go to your BIOS and tell us what the CPU, RAM and the CPU integrated memory controller voltages are.
This is important in order to make RAM settings adjustments.

 

[FreedomV]

Done filled the system specs info etc
I usually use everest to check the temperature and its mostly at 50-60C.
DRAM voltages: 1.80V
North bridge voltages: 1.26V
CPU voltages: 1.192 sometimes 1.184
3.3V - 3.232V
5V - 4.948V
12V - 12.040V
The rest is auto.

Hope this help, let me know if theres anything else I missed . thanks!!

 

[Dave76]

Good information.

There are two BIOS updates listed at Asus P5Q3 Deluxe.
Both mention - 'Enhance the compatibility with certain memory'.
If your comfortable with updating the BIOS, upgrade to 2105.

Manually set your DRAM frequency to 666MHz.
Manually set your first four RAM timings to 7-7-7-20, leave the rest on 'Auto'.
You can leave the "Command Rate' at 2T.

Leave the DRAM and NB voltages where they are for now.

Test with memtest86+ for a full 7 passes, best to run overnight.
If memtest86+ passes then run Prime95 torture test.
CPU - Stress Test with Prime95
First open Real Temp to monitor CPU temperatures, don't go over 77.4°C.
Open Prime95 and stop the test if it is running, in Advanced tab select 'Round off checking', in the Options tab select 'Torture Test...', in the window that opens select 'Blend', after 'Number of torture test threads to run' enter 2, then click OK to start the test.
For checking CPU/RAM stability 2 hours should be adequate.

Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E8500

Let us know the results.

 

[FreedomV]

Done, updated to the new bios 2105 and started prime95 test.
My pc crashed after 3mins with Prime95 and the temperature went up to 80C. So I cleaned my pc it was kinda dusty CPU temp went down to 38C from 55C and ran prime95 for more than 2hours max temp were 76C.
Here is some pics.

I will run memtest tonight, and let u guys know the result when I'm done.
Would be nice if the dust stop the bluescreen
thanks!!

 

[Dave76]

That's good news, got to keep the dust cleaned up.

Do you have the stock Intel CPU cooler?

In RealTemp, click the settings button, then select the ATI box under 'other settings'.
Tell us the GPU temps.

Also let us know the memtest86+ test results.

 

[FreedomV]

Nope, I gave that stock cooler away xD.
My GPU temps is around 60C+(stock cooler) Im using ATI catalyst control center to manualy increase or decrease the fan speed depending on the GPUs temp. Usually have it at 60% fan speed during idle, but when I start to play games I increase it to 70-90% depend on what games it is. But yah the sound of the fan in my GPU card is so damn loud xD.

I did 2 times memtest yesterday one for 8h and 8passed and then it comes out alot of errors.
and did it again for around 6h 4passed and alot of errors.
So its my RAM thats defect? or it need more or less overclock on the cpu and RAM?

 

[Dave76]

That is definitely RAM issues.
When you're OC'ing, you adjust your settings, test for stability.
If it's not stable then you need to adjust settings, if still not stable, you need to return everything to stock settings and start over.

Let's try a couple setting adjustments before returning everything to stock settings.

Are the RAM settings still at:

Manually set your DRAM frequency to 666MHz.
Manually set your first four RAM timings to 7-7-7-20, leave the rest on 'Auto'.
You can leave the "Command Rate' at 2T.

Are your DRAM and NB voltages still at:

DRAM voltages: 1.80V
North bridge voltages: 1.26V

Your CPUZ SPD tab says DRAM should be 1.50v, so 1.80v should be more than enough.
Bump the NB voltage to 1.350v.

Run memtest86+ again.

 

[FreedomV]

Yah the ram settings is currently at 7-7-7-20.
kk I will change the NB to 1.350 and run memtest tonight, will let ya know the result asap.
Kinda weird that the old settings showing no fault with the memory.
Anyway thanks alot for your help!! .

 

[Dave76]

Your welcome.

RAM can be very fickle and is known to throw intermittent errors, which are very hard to trace.

Let us know the results.

 

[FreedomV]

The memtest stopped after 5hours showing 6pass errors: 1101056 "unexpected interrupt - halting".
Wonder if its both RAM thats defected or just one of them, is it true that OCZ have lifetime warranty on theirs RAM? Cuz I remember when buying the RAM, on the package it says something like "lifetime warranty"(but yah can't find the receipt).
Last question do you recommend to use RAM that's by different brand at the same time? example 1 slot with OCZ RAM and the other one maybe from Kingston.
Gonna send my current one to OCZ for RMA, is these RAM compatible with my current one? if yes which one of them do you recommend? www.webhallen.com/sok/?title=OCZ+DDR3&search_box_select=0
(my current one OCZ DDR3 PC3-12800 4gb(2x2gb) Plat ENHANCED BANDWIDTH)
Once again thank you alot for your help! All the instructions were really clearly and easy to follow! ^^

 

[Dave76]

You're welcome.

Time to RMA the RAM.
The receipt should not be necessary, just contact them.

It is always best to get RAM from the same manufacturer and with the same frequency and timings, the same RAM kit is preferable.

This is your compatible RAM link.
P5Q3 Deluxe/WiFi-AP @n Memory/Device Support

It's best to get RAM that is listed on that site.

I would stay away from OCZ RAM as they have stopped making/selling it.
OCZ to Stop Memory Biz, Focusing on SSDs
OCZ Reassures Customers About Memory Module Warranty

There are many others to choose from.
I've always had good luck with Corsair.

 

[FreedomV]

I see, good to know .
I'm planning to get this one DDR3 1333 4096MB(Kit of 2) CORSAIR Heat-Sink Package 9-9-9-24 N/A DS
BoxP/N:TW3X4G1333C9DHX
(CM3X2048-1333C9DHX).

Sent RMA to OCZ and this is what they replied to me
"Comment: I think your RAM is faulty and needs to be replaced.
I've to inform you that there is no warranty given, as Ebay isn't an authorized Reseller."
wow :/, Bought this RAM 3years ago for almost 300$, so damn expensive RAM and lifetime warranty isn't included.
