Asus UL80J laptop keeps getting BSOD

[piotrkol1]

I've had my Asus UL80J laptop (Windows 7) since August 2010 and I don't know why or how to explain it, but I tend to get the BSOD whenever I'm away from the house using WIFI. So for example, when I'm at home I have it on my desk plugged in with an ethernet cable and I've almost never had any problems. However, when I take my laptop to class and use WIFI I get all sorts of issues. Just today, I got two blue screens and then the third time it just flat out froze!!! Usually the error listed on the blue screen is "system service exception", but there have been others as well. These are some other problems I've been having:

1.) Sometimes my WIFI totally shuts off, and the only way to fix it is to run the Windows trouble shooter to "Turn on wireless accessibility." Usually this works but other times I need to do a total restart.

2.) When I start my computer up sometimes it takes like 10-15 minutes for the Internet to start working after I log on to my account. For example, I'll click on the FireFox icon on my desktop but it doesn't start, and while Internet Explorer does open up, its just a blank screen and the page doesn't load.

3.) I've also noticed often times that the fan/hard drive from inside the laptop seems to working pretty hard from the noise that it gives off.

Does anyone have any any idea what the problem might be or how I should go about trying to get this fixed?

• Use the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe) to determine which file is causing the issue, and then replace the file. Use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on Windows 7 . The sfc /scannow command scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct Microsoft versions. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html

• Heat:

Only use the laptop on a hard surface with nothing blocking any of the vents.

Use a laptop cooling pad if possible

Blow out all vents with canned air (DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner or an air compressor, they can damage the components).

Ensure that the fan comes on and is blowing air out of the vent (may not happen at startup, but should happen after using it for a while).
​

• For monitoring heat of the system, use Speccy or HWMonitor:

• Run Memtest86+ for at least 8-10 passes. It may take up to 20 passes to find problems. Make sure to run it once after the system has been on for a few hours and is warm, and then also run it again when the system has been off for a few hours and is cold. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

Pay close attention to part 3 of the tutorial in order to rule the faulty RAM stick out.

   Tip

Do this test overnight, before going to bed.

Let us know the results.
