BSOD at random times. Error 0x3B / 0x1000007E / 0x1E

[Sveeaa]

Hi
Im getting BSOD at very random. Sometimes during start up
Sometime during game play and sometimes when my computer just idle.
Today i even had my games unable to find graphic card.
Example Heroes of newerth gave me "k2 fatal error. D3D_create createdevice failed()"
And starcraft2 gave me "Unable to find graphics card"

it started to 2 happen i may or so but i didnt try to fix it untill july and i couldnt get it to work. so i installed Linux and it worked perfect but i wanted windows again.
So yesterday i installed windows and i worked all day untill around 8 at morning today.
And today ive gotten like 6 BSOD during different doings.

Is there anyone here that can help me?

Fresh install gives you problems, sounds like hardware. Lets test memory.
Run for 8 passes.
Then test each stick in a good slot for 6 passes.
If you have dual channel, the results may be incorrect, if shows pass.

Possibly Windows is more demanding that Linux, I dont know.

Please post computer specs. We need more than Ultimate 64x.

Thank you for response. i did a memtest a month ago or so and it passed but ill try a new one and do it like you said.
Im going to Turkey tomorrow morning so i hope i can finish the test by then otherwise i have to continue when i get back home,

I updated my specs hope it helps.

Please, take your time and do it right. If you say that you passed and you did the test wrong, we may never find the cause.

 

[Sveeaa]

can i ask a quick question? im not 100% sure what you mean by 8 passes could you do a quick explain?

 

[richc46]

Its a bit hard to explain, but you will understand once you use it. It will show the result for each pass. Give it a try and if you dont undestand, then, just post.

 

[Sveeaa]

ok. im running it right now. been running for 50 min or so.

[Sveeaa]

yeah i do. so basiclly im gonna have it run till i have 8 passes or i have to start it 8 times?

 

[richc46]

It should just run until you turn it off.

 

[Sveeaa]

awsome. ill just let it run the whole night then

 

[richc46]

Guess it was my fault. I usually say the test takes time, best to run overnight.

 

[Sveeaa]

its ok i know it takes time. and its 23:10 here anyway. i wanna know whats wrong cuase i cant really do anything om my comp anyway.

 

[Sveeaa]

whats the diffrence by running the memtest with both memories connected then doing it one by one?

 

[richc46]

You have to do it will all the ram together, to see if they work together well
And then you have to test each stick separately, to see if apart there is a problem.

 

[Sveeaa]

ah then i understand.

 

[Sveeaa]

got error. it is almost at 8 passes.
could this be my reason for bsod?
this eith both momories still. i have to try em seperatly when i get back from turkey

 

[richc46]

First,
I do not see the picture, I only see a red x
Seocnd. Memory problems are a major cause of BSODs and that is why you are checking it. We cannot check any further until you fix the memory problem. If you have BSODs after memory is fixed, we can continue.

 

[Sveeaa]

yeah sorry about that i did a try to upload it from my phone. yeah ill fix the memories as soon as i get home. i hope there isnt more hardwere problems tho
