Welcome

Most of your dumps show memory as the issue.

Daemon tools is a known cause of blue screens. If you search this forum, you will find a lot of threads about it.
Please uninstall BitDefender and Autodesk while we are troubleshooting with your computer.

MSE is recommended by almost all members on our forum and known to be the most compatible antivirus with windows 7.

Ok. This is what I have done:
Uninstalled the three software as requested. Installed MSE as recommended.

Ran SFC 3x - no probems detected

Ran SeaTools - no problems detected

Ran memtest as follows:

1. Individually tested all 4 memory modules each on a different slot except for slot DDR_2 - all memory modules passed.

2. Installed all 4 memory modules and ran memtest - memory test failed.

3. Ran individual test again - 1 memory module failed on slot DDR_2

4. Tested same memory on Slot DDR_3 & 1 - Passed on both slots

5. Tested 2 other memory modules on slot DDR_2 - both passed

6. Tested 4th memory module on slot DDR_4 - Passed

7. Tested 2 memory modules at the same time on slot DDR_4 & 2 - passed

8. Test all 4 memory modules at the same time - passed

*All tests ran for 6 passes or more

Just restarted system, and have to wait and see if problem recurs.

Prior to the first memtests BSOD occurred about 4 times more

Any idea why those instances that memory failed the test one time happened and now they all passed after subsequent tests?

Thanks for your help.

Well got the first BSOD after all those tests. Here is the SF Report:

Hello JASPC56, do you overclock?
► These programs are not needed, uninstall those. Those cause troubles off and on.

Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\AutoGreen    Public:Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\AutoGreen    Public
Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\EasySaver    Public:Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\EasySaver    Public
Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\ET6    Public:Start Menu\Programs\GIGABYTE\ET6    Public

Among those, Easy Tune 6 is an overclocking program. Before uninstalling it, first run it and set everything to default.

► Free up the startup.

1. Click on the Start button
2. Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
3. Select the “Startup” tab.
4. Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
5. Apply > OK
6. Accept the restart.

► If some roxio systems like BurnerLauncher, CPMonitor and BackOnTrack runs, they may cause problems anytime, too. But, before blaming them, we to be a bit cautious.



In such a situation, it is better to enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers.

Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.

Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any.

 

[JASPC56]

Here is the crash report after verifier.exe was turned on.

 

[Arc]

The last crash dump dated 28/09. Does that mean that you haven't had any crash in between?

 

[JASPC56]

That is correct. And I have not turned off the system and have played about 5 hours of Battlefield 3 at high settings with no crashes.

 

[Arc]

In this situation there is nothing to be worried at all. if you are on driver verifier, you may disable it now.

If there are further crashes, let us know.

 

[JASPC56]

Will do. Thanks!

 

[JASPC56]

Got another BSOD. Same error. Ran a Windows memory diagnostics that found errors, but cannot find the event log. Just found this and copied to txt but do not think it is the correct due to the time of the report. It should have been generated at a later time.

 

[Arc]

Sorry for the late reply. As your new dumps are not showing any probable cause of crashes, you need to enable Driver Verifier here.

 

[JASPC56]

The last dump was with verifier enabled. have been running again for 24hrs plus and no more crashes.
Will enable programs in msconfig and run verifier to see if there is anything that is identified.

 

[Arc]

Any updated news? How the computer is running?

 

[JASPC56]

Well Fellows, there has been no BSOD (except 2 that I caused trying to oc) now for two weeks, with everything running as before! Have no idea why it has not done so up to now. But that is good news so far. Thanks to everyone who assisted. Will keep you posted if anything pops up in the next few weeks!

 

[Arc]

Good news
