All I want for Christmas is a cpu that doesn't freeze.

Please zip up and upload the CBS.log file - usually in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS

This is a STOP 0x7F error, more info here: BSOD Index

You have symbol errors in your debugger, please do this to correct them:
Symbol File Path:
FYI - Open WinDbg, go to File...Symbol File Path
Delete anything in the box.
Then copy the stuff in the Code box below and paste it into the box.
Code:
SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Then click on OK to exit the dialog.
Then close WinDbg and answer Yes when it asks you if you want to "Save information for workspace"

Please do this to upload the dump files:
Upload Dump Files:
Please go to C:\Windows\Minidump and zip up the contents of the folder. Then upload/attach the .zip file with your next post.
{Left click on the first minidump file.
Hold down the "Shift" key and left click on the last minidump file.
Right click on the blue highlighted area and select "Send to"
Select "Compressed (zipped) folder" and note where the folder is saved.
Upload that .zip file with your next post.

If you have issues with "Access Denied" errors, try copying the files to your desktop and zipping them up from there. If it still won't let you zip them up, post back for further advice.

If you don't have anything in that folder, please check in C:\Windows for a file named MEMORY.DMP. If you find it, zip it up and upload it to a free file hosting service - then post the link to it.
Then, follow the directions here to set your system for Minidumps (much smaller than the MEMORY.DMP file): Set MiniDump

Hey, USASMA thank you so much for all your posts. You have been very helpful and patient along the way. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this situation.

I completely forgot about the CBS Logs. Good thinking. Here is your LOG FILE as requested.

Also, I switched the coding so that all dumps go into the Minidump folder. I have no idea why it switched over to the MEMORY.DMP. Anyways that is fixed. The next time I get a BSOD, I will zip up the contents in the Minidump folder.

Finally, I am downloading the correct symbols and will have it uploaded very soon.

The only failures that were noted in the CBS.log file (from 12/22/09 to present) were due to failed uploads (presumably to the Windows Update website). Are there times that the system isn't connected to the internet?

The symbol file thing will correct those errors in your debug reports that you posted. If there are any .dmp files in the C:\Windows\Minidump folder - please zip them up and upload them with your next post. We can work with some different command and extract some more information from them.

It appears the Security Processor Loader Driver is running back to normal. Don't ask me how. I just checked my device manager and my system information to confirm.

I am still waiting for another BSOD. So far I have seen my screen freeze up twice and one time the video was distorted (look like a gpu issue).


I did manage to retrieve an older memory dump (last night). Here is what it displayed:

This might help...after talking with my friend about the problem he alerted me that...

we tried to install a graphic card four months ago.

It was a Nvidia 8600GT PCI-E graphic card if my memory serves me right. Well, when I installed the card I didn't encounter any issues. After one day, I decided to take the card out of my cpu because I didn't trust the card would run well with my specs. I didn't have any issues when the card was taken out properly. I made sure to uninstall all of the drivers immediately and my system ran fine...that is until I got these random freezes and BSODs.

Could this be the source of my problem? Or just add more crap to the equation?

Use "!analyze -v" (without the quotes) to get more info from the memory dump file.
You type that in the blank box at the bottom of the debugger screen and press Enter

Could be just c***, or it could be significant. Do you still have the old card? If so, uninstall the current card and install the old card. If the BSOD's stop - you've found the culprit.

You do realize that your Dell 531s is not on the Dell compatablity list for Windows 7.
Dell - Support

According to Dell:
If your computer is not on this list, installing Windows 7 is not recommended (the computer may not have the minimum hardware requirements needed or have very little functionality).

It might be worth running the Windows 7 compatibility update advisor which can be accessed from this page>
Dell - Technical Support

From what I have read the 32 bit editions are working on your notebook but not the 64 bit versions. According to Dell there is no support for either.

I did see that that the Dell 531s is not on the Dell compatibility list for Windows 7.

I tested the system with the Upgrade Advisor and discovered there were no problems. FYI this problem started to creep up with Windows Vista Basic. Once I switched over to Windows 7 Ultimate I noticed the freezing issue and BSOD a little more often.

Thanks for your help.

Here is a fresh minidump from a BSOD that occurred almost ten minutes ago.

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)

Please update these older drivers. Don't use Windows Update or the Update Drivers function of Device Manager. Visit the website of the device/program manufacturer to get the latest available version:

Alright after many hours of frustration I decided to completely wipe out my hard drive. I re-installed windows 7 carefully.

After thirty minutes of checking out windows, I received my first freeze. If you would like to help....

here is my MSINFO32 information and a list of all the event errors I had when I first installed windows.

View attachment 44606
View attachment 44607


FYI, I just installed the AMD Away Mode Driver so that takes care of that problem.


From the event error logs that I briefly surveyed it appears my cdrom driver is having issues or maybe the SATA driver is not right. I will say after fully cleaning my hard drive and re-installing windows I can see less errors....but I'm still getting freezes :(

Real quickly...I did not get any of the updates for Windows 7. I am still hesitant to get all the downloads when my computer is freezing with the bare bone package.

I really don't think the updates will help out at this point....am I wrong?

Also, a real quick note here. I have not received a BSOD. If I do I will be sure to post it.

Another development that just occured. The CPU calender and clock was reset with the last freeze.

Instead of the date being 12/30/09 it switched back to 1/1/07 with time starting at midnight.

What is going on here???

It looks as though the OS is having difficulty with the following drivers:
NDPROXY.SYS, PARPORT.SYS, SRV.SYS, VGA.SYS

Most likely this is a hardware issue - and the changing times suggest an issue with the motherboard (or at least the CMOS battery).

I just read about this procedure, it may help get a dump from the frozen system:
1 - make the changes listed in this article: Forcing a System Crash from the Keyboard
2 - freeze the system
3 - force the crash with the key combination
4 - reboot and collect the dump file for us to analyze

If it was my motherboard, then wouldn't I be receiving problems while I was in safe mode?

If there was something wrong with the CMOS battery wouldn't I receive an error relating to a power issue?

No, not with the CMOS battery.

If you have a program that checks the time and date, and if the time and date is incorrect, then you'll get errors.
If that program doesn't launch in Safe Mode - then you won't get errors in Safe Mode.

Replace the CMOS battery (less than $5 US at most stores). I had a motherboard with a dead CMOS battery 3 months after I opened the box that the motherboard came in - stuff happens!!!

Then force the crash as described in my previous post.

Problem solved!!!!! After removing a memory stick (1GB of ram) and replacing the CMOS battery. I managed to solve the freezing error.

Again I want to thank you all for posting your suggestions. Especially USASMA. :)
