Hey, I've been getting a BSOD at start up. It does not happen every time, seems to be random. I've tried reinstalling windows 7 but it didn't fix the problem. I have two disks, one SSD and one mechanical. I think the mechanical drive might be failing but I could be completely wrong. Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks for any help you can give.

Hey axe0, I just used the DM Log Collector like the bsod posting instructions said to do.

Anyway, I figured out what the problem was. The drivers for my wifi card ASUS PCE-AC68 were the newest ones (Version 2.1.4.3) and the were causing the BSOD. I reinstalled my network card with Version 2.0.8.8 drivers and everything is back to normal.

Thanks for taking the time to look.
