Solved BSOD after fresh install

[carlocgc]

no i dont have a spare one.

could it be that i need a bigger psu? it just reaches minimum rq of 550w.

disabled verifier. uninstalled CCC and rolled back driver.

will post if crashes, should i enable verifier again?

 

[Dave76]

What graphics driver version are you using now?

Let's keep Driver Verifier off for now, see what crashes you get with it.

Check your PSU requirements.
Corsair Power Supply Finder

It gives me 550 and 650W PSUs.
There's excess added into that already, you should be ok as long as you don't have excess devices plugged into your computer all the time.

i am using the most recent but just the display driver, my bad.

here are recent crashes + older ones.

verfier was crashing comp when i tried to uninstall catalyst, they can be disregarded?
have to wait for next crash for a clear picture

AOD driver is back again in performance monitor since reinstalling display driver. though it crashed when that was temporarily fixed so i doubt its the cause

 

[Dave76]

Let's look at the non driver verifier crashes.

If you get another graphics card crash, go to the AMD site and get an older dirver, no CCC, and try that for a while.

 

[carlocgc]

new crash here its got to be my hardware

 

[Dave76]

Install a previous driver version.
AMD Catalyst™ Display Driver 11.12
11.12 Display Driver (92.9MB) version.

Go to add and remove programs and use the ATI Catalyst Install Manager to do a complete uninstall of all its resources.
Do not reboot.
Download Guru3D - Driver Sweeper (Setup) download from Guru3D.com and install it.
Reboot in Safe Mode and run Driver Sweeper. Select "ATI Display" box and click "analyze. " Then "clean".
Reboot normally and try to install the 11.12 Display Driver version (92.9MB) of the AMD graphics driver.

[carlocgc]

think driver guru is discontinued. ill install older driver update

 

[Dave76]

You can download it from: Driver Sweeper 3.2 - Direct Download Link

 

[carlocgc]

thanks. driver sweeper done and 11.12 installed.

 

[Dave76]

See if it's stable.

Let us know how it's running.

 

[carlocgc]

still crashing the same way. crashes upto 10 minutes after closing a demanding application displays a very horizontally jagged greenish screen then blue screen but will run fine as long as application is running. sometimes struggles to reboot and will crash even in safe mode!! will boot if left a while or disconnected from mains.

 

[Dave76]

Your BIOS version is 1005.
There are some stability updates, new newest version is 2001.
If you haven't flashed your BIOS before let us know, if it's not done correctly it can cause your motherboard to become non-functional.
Don't try to update it until you are sure your system is stable and won't crash during the flashing.

Take out 2 RAM cards, for testing purposes.
Leave the 2 RAM cards in either the two blue slots or the two black slots.

Bump your DRAM voltage to 1.55v.
Bump your CPU/NB voltage to 1.325v.

If you get another crash take the 2 RAM cards out and put the other two RAM cards in the other two slots.
You want to test two RAM cards in two (same color) slots, then test the other two RAM cards in different slots.


You are going to have to test the graphics card, I think this is the cause of your issues.
Is there someone that will let you put your graphics card in their computer for testing?
Or can you borrow one to put in your system for testing?
It's the graphics card or possibly the motherboard.

Let's trouble shoot the peripheral devices.
Take out any/all unnecessary devices, if you have a USB wireless take it out and connect with cable, disconnect any USB hubs, remove any sound cards/recievers, unplug your USB external HDD, if you get any more crashes replace keyboard and mouse with known good ones for testing.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50)
Usual causes:  Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus,  Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS
Arg1: fffff8e002fd59bc, memory referenced.
Arg2: 0000000000000001, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation.
Arg3: fffff80002dc8fa2, If non-zero, the instruction address which referenced the bad memory address.
WRITE_ADDRESS: GetPointerFromAddress: unable to read from fffff80002ecc100, fffff8e002fd59bc
IMAGE_NAME:  ntkrnlmp.exe

Still getting this error warning:

The device, AODDriver4.01, is reporting "tv_ConfigMgrErr24". This device will not be available until the issue is resolved. The Plug and Play ID for this device is ROOT\LEGACY_AODDRIVER4.01\0000.

Ill test RAM and USB.

Voltages increased
(seems as though RAM was at 1.2v when i swapped to manual!! Not 1.5v)

DRAM = 1.55v
CPU/NB = 1.325v
Removed both RAM from B slot.

I dont have a spare card or even on board graphics so i cant test that.

I do have an old motherboard Biostar GF 8600e GF8200E :: Motherboard :: BIOSTAR

My system should be stable enough to update bios only crashes after its been stressed for an hour or so.

Thanks again

AOD error is connected to display, got rid of it once but its back since rolling back display driver

 

[Dave76]

Yes, change the DRAM voltage to 1.55v and the CPU/NB voltage to 1.325v.
Then test the RAM.

You have a issue with your graphics card, can you RMA it?

Did you trouble shoot the peripheral devices?
Take out any/all unnecessary devices, if you have a USB wireless take it out and connect with cable, disconnect any USB hubs, remove any sound cards/recievers, unplug your USB external HDD, if you get any more crashes replace keyboard and mouse with known good ones for testing.

Go to your BIOS and tell me the frequency and voltage information.
CPU/NB frequency
HT Link speed
HT voltage
NB voltage

 

[carlocgc]

CPU/NB frequency 1400mhz
HT Link speed 200 mhz
HT voltage 1.2v
NB voltage 1.1v

All usb disconnected

 

[Dave76]

Set your HT voltage to 1.25v and the NB voltage to 1.15v.

Your CPUZ CPU tab in post #25 shows the HT Link at 2006.7 MHz, which is where it should be set at, so it's good.

Your CPU/NB frequency should be equal to or higher than the HT Link speed.
Set the CPU/NB frequency to 2000MHz.

Save and exit BIOS.

 

[carlocgc]

done

 

[carlocgc]

another crash.
swapping RAM

 

[Dave76]

Let's change the graphics driver again.
Same procedure as in post #46.
Use AMD Catalyst™ Display Driver 11.2
Install Driver only, no CCC.

Then check if the AODDriver is still there.

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (1e)
This is a very common bugcheck.
Usual causes:  Device driver, hardware, System service, compatibility, Remote control programs, memory, BIOS
EXCEPTION_CODE: (NTSTATUS) 0xc0000005 - The instruction at 0x%08lx referenced memory at 0x%08lx. The memory could not be %s.
LAST_CONTROL_TRANSFER:  from fffff80002ce4588 to fffff80002c98c40
MODULE_NAME: Pool_Corruption

Can you confirm, this crash was with 2 X 2GB RAM cards installed, now you have taken those two out and put the other 2 X 2GB RAM cards in different slots.

Do you have Windows Update set to 'Install Automatically' or 'D/L and let me choose'?
Windows might be installing a graphics driver after you have already installed one.
If not already on 'D/L and let me choose', change it.

[carlocgc]

hi been a while since my last post still having problems with computer.

can confirm the last crashes were with the other 2 ram modules in. so no more to try there

windows is set to "Install Automatically" all updates. i changed it post rolling back driver so ill repeat the install and sweep now

updated MSE through itself if thats what u mean.

recent crashes were causing computer not to boot removing all RAM modules and reinstalling them allowed it to boot.
