BSOD after fresh install of Windows 7. Error 0x00000050.

[SquiddlyMeeps]

I recently reinstalled Windows 7 on my computer after it stopped being able to boot normally. I managed to get it installed, but I won't be able to get into safe mode as it won't let me set up Windows. Every time I try to boot it normally, it creates this BSOD. I have a picture of the BSOD. Sorry about the bad quality. If the attachment doesn't work: http://i.imgur.com/tBnnwA6.jpg

Thank you.

Welcome to 7F. Without dump files it's nigh on impossible to pinpoint the issue, however a STOP 0x50 can be down to defective hardware, particularly RAM. Luckily you can test your RAM without booting into Windows.

Download and run MemTest86+ to test your RAM. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

   Note

Run MemTest86+ for at least 8 passes. Ideally set it off before you go to bed and leave it overnight, we're looking for zero errors here. A single error will show something's going bad with your RAM.

If your RAM passes this test then the best we can offer is guesswork unfortunately. Run the test and let us know how it goes.

It looked like the RAM had no errors according to the Memtest.

Should I start swapping out parts and seeing which part is causing this?

You need to start again and run a minimum of 8 passes as explained earlier - less than that is insufficient to thoroughly test RAM.

The issue may also be that you are mixing different makes/rating of RAM. For now, complete the MemTest86+ runs as explained.

Whoops. I read pass complete and thought it was done. I didn't notice the top. Thanks.
I did it again, but now everything looks corrupted: http://i.imgur.com/DW8xu8t.jpg

This also appeared on the bios splash screen.

Can you upload your screenshots directly to this site please.

Oh, yeah sure. Sorry.

Oh, yeah sure. Sorry.

When your screen becomes corrupted like that, it's often down to a failing graphics card. That would also explain the blue screen error which points to an NV (Nvidia) error. I take it you have an Nvidia card in your system?
If so it may be time to replace the graphics card.

Yeah it certainly looks like the GPU is dying.
