Solved BSOD and Stop Errors Becoming More Frequent

[BStuart96]

The walkthrough you posted says to run it for 2 hours, but the txt. file that came with Prime95 says to run it for over 6 hours, will 2 hours be enough to point out any obvious problems?

It's been running for 90 minutes now, with no problems and temps between 60 and 63, my max is 67.4 I believe.

Lets hope it is, on a stable system one can run prime95 forever.

Started getting stop errors just after my last post, no problems reported on prime though, and temps seemed stable. Tried to Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get Task Manager, but that's what causes the restart apparently. Will try the Intel Burn Test.

 

[BStuart96]

Intel Burn finished no problems on the Standard and High tests Very High tests.

This suggestion is one I don't like unless it is for a specific crash, but I think we need it to find out if the problem is more hardware or software.
Please try to boot into safe mode and see if the system crashes, you can do barely a thing in safe mode.

See if it crashes as soon as I get into safe mode, or leave it and see if it crashes?

 

[BStuart96]

Just had a BSOD BEFORE I put it into Safe Mode, and managed to get a dump file this time, so I'll give you this before I go to safe mode.

 

[BStuart96]

For the time it was in Safe Mode, there was no crash.

Last crash is a 0xF4 with I/O errors, if this is true then your system should crash in safe mode.

 

[BStuart96]

Ah right, I must not have left it long enough, I'll leave it in safe mode overnight and see what happens.

 

[BStuart96]

I did have a crash in safe mode. I woke up to a blue screen saying:

Stop: c0000135 The program can't start because %hs is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Diagnostics Test

 System File Check

Please try following:

• Open an admin command prompt
• Copy/paste "sfc/scannow" (without quotes) and press enter
• When it finished reboot your system
• Open again an admin command prompt
• Enter sfc/scannow again

If sfc/scannow does NOT say "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violation", please upload the cbs.log file located at {windows partition}\Windows\Logs\CBS\, if the file is too large try a 3rd party uploader like dropbox, onedrive, google drive, mediafire etc.
System File Check(SFC a.k.a. Windows Resource Protection) needs to have your system rebooted in order for sfc to try to fix the problems that it finds.

 

[BStuart96]

Tried that and got no integrity violations.

Please run HDTune again on all hard drives

Diagnostics Test

 HDD TEST

Run HDTune to

• scan for errors, no quick scan but full scan
• check the health,
• benchmark.

It may take some time, but please take the time you need to perform it properly.
Let me know what the results are

• of the error scan,
• make a screenshot of the health of every hard drive and post the screenshots,
• post screenshots with the benchmark of the
  • transfer rate,
  • access time,
  • burst rate,
  • cpu usage.

SSD had no errors and these screenshots.

Please check if the cables are proper connected, the connections of the cables are not damaged in any way and the cables are not damaged.

 

[BStuart96]

Just crashed while doing an error check on the HDD, but I got these screenshots, will try the error check again now.

 

[BStuart96]

I've checked the cables to the best of my ability, none were visibly damaged or disconnected, but I made sure they were all properly connected anyway.

 

[BStuart96]

Can't complete the full error check on my HDD as it keeps getting interrupted by crashes. No errors were found up to about 1/3rd of the disk though.

 

[axe0]

Could you disconnect the hard drive and see how it goes?
