Hi folks - been recommended to register and ask for help here by a friend who found the forums very helpful. I have been having a wide variety of BSODs over the last few weeks - I have tried reverting and refreshing drivers, changing RAM, changing gfx card, pretty much everything short of building a new rig from scratch.

I have followed the instructions on using the diagnostic tool - the output from which is attached. I'd be very grateful for any advice!

Cheers

Hi Kilohotel.

A very frequent cause of stop 0x3B BSOD is the missing service pack. Install Service pack 1 and all other windows updates. Otherwise the system will remain vulnerable to threats including stop 0x3B BSOD.
Code:
[COLOR=Red]Windows 7 Kernel Version 7600 MP[/COLOR] (4 procs) Free x64
Product: WinNt, suite: TerminalServer SingleUserTS
Built by: 7600.16385.amd64fre.win7_rtm.090713-1255

Report us for any further BSOD after installing Service Pack 1.
