Hello all. I really need your technical help. I keep getting BSOD's and not sure why.

I hope you can help me identify why and fix it. It just happens randomly.

I have followed the steps here about how to post a thread here.

I have attached my SF_Diagnostic_Tool scan.

Should I attach the minidump file too or is that included in that scan results?

Hope someone can help.

Thanks my kindest.

Paul.

Edit: I had several BSOD's with different outputs on the screen for the past week.
I then reformated my PC from my Recovery Option and thought it was sorted.
I downloaded some drivers from Packard Bell site and installed them.
I thought it was sorted but been getting them now.
I'm currently running Windows in Safe Mode w/ Networking.
I'll attach a photo I took of the previous BSOD's on my iPhone.

After Format

PS. I also ran that windows file check but it said "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

I ran that Memtest program last night but it didnt find any errors after 8 passes.

Could these BSOD's be because of an old driver somewhere?

Hi EyeBallPaul.

The zip you uploaded does not contain any crash dump.

Follow it: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html
Go to Option Two, Point 2. Download the .reg file and merge it in registry by double clicking it.

Now wait for another BSOD. When it occurred, search the .dmp files manually in the default path: C:\Windows\Minidump or %SystemRoot%\Minidump. See if the crash dump is recorded or not (hopefully it will be recorded).Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

Dont run any disc cleanup program before you upload another zip.

Also .....
Code:
The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load: 
[COLOR=Red]aswRvrt
aswSnx
aswSP
aswVmm[/COLOR]
discache
spldr
Wanarpv6
Uninstall Avast using Avast Uninstall Utility. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.

Another interesting event of tomorrow:
Code:
  Description: 
The [URL="http://process.iamnotageek.com/AVGIDSAgent.exe.php"]AVGIDSAgent[/URL] service did not shut down properly after receiving a preshutdown control.
But I am not seeing AVG installed. Have you uninstalled AVG within last 24 hours and installed Avast then?

Let us know. Because the answer to this question will be very vital.

Hello thanks for your reply.

Yes, I uninstalled AVG. I read somewhere that it might be the possible reason.
But I have been using AVG for many years with no problems.
Have now uninstalled Avast and will try what you say.

Regarding the registry merge, which one I need to do the Complete memory dump or just the Small memory dump ?

I done the Complete one.

I will now just wait for another BSOD then?

Thanks!

Do the small minidump, exactly as guided in the post #2 .... option 2, point 2. That will be enough.

And you have to wait for another BSOD, because anything said without seeing the crash dump is just a guesswork.

Hi it's happened again just now. Was fine all night and just randomly happened this morning.
This time though the BSOD screen only showed for like about 1 second then my screen went blank and the PC was just whirring but nothing was happening.
Had to do a force turn off by holding the power button down.

There is no minidump file in those locations either

C:\Windows\Minidump is empty..

Attached the SF Diagnostics report here.

What did that reg file do?

What have I done wrong?

Thanks!!

Edit/Update. Its happened again. I was able to see it briefly before it restarted.
It said something like memory_management. I would have took picture of it to get stop codes but
I got the minidump file. Have attach it here.

Hope someone expert can take a look at it and give me something to resolve the issue
As running in safemode atm :(

Should I run and attach a new SF_Diagnostic_Tool scan too?

Much thanks.

PS. Hope this is a software issue not a hardware one but could it be one
of the memory modules is going on me? I only bought them about 6 months ago though
might still even have the box and reciept they came in
Did run that memtest with 8 passes and never found any errors in ram so not sure its that.

Thanks.

Paul.

Man alive its happened again.
Managed to get picture of it was another one of those irql_not_less_than_a_headache bs.

STOP 0x0000000A (0xFFFFFA7FFFFFF440,0x0000000000000000002, 0x000000000000000001, 0xFFFFF8000309D7FE)

Something like that anyway.

Just want to know if its a hardware or software (driver) issue.

Hi EyeBallPaul.

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

Stress test the CPU.
Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95

Let us know the results.
