Hello there!

Seems like the Minidumps are missing. Follow these steps :

To enable mini-dump:

• Right click on My Computer, choose Properties and go to the Advanced system settings;
• Hit Settings in the Startup and Recovery box;
• Choose Small memory dump in Write debugging information;
• Close all the dialog windows by clicking OK buttons;
• Reproduce the system crash;
• The small dump file will be created in the directory chosen in the Small dump directory box
• 
  

Also Run Hardware Diagnostic (RAM, GPU and Hard drive) : Hardware Diagnostic | Captain Debugger

Hello there!

First lets remove avast! Antivirus System completely and use the removal tool to remove the left over files. Use Microsoft Security essentials. If that fails then run Driver Verifier http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lo...-driver-verifier-identify-issues-drivers.html and wait for the Blue screen to happen.

BAD_POOL_HEADER (19)
The pool is already corrupt at the time of the current request.
This may or may not be due to the caller.
The internal pool links must be walked to figure out a possible cause of
the problem, and then special pool applied to the suspect tags or the driver
verifier to a suspect driver.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000003, the pool freelist is corrupt.
Arg2: fffffa800699aa40, the pool entry being checked.
Arg3: fffffa800699aa40, the read back flink freelist value (should be the same as 2).
Arg4: ffffa8800699aa40, the read back blink freelist value (should be the same as 2).

i ran the driver verifier then rebooted.. nothing happened.. should i wait for my system to crash? should i post another dump file here if my system crashed? and can i do other things like playing or browsing while running this? thank you..

Yes you will get BSOD eventually. Once that happen post the dump file. Yes you can work on your system and try to reproduce the BSOD. But you might find performance issues.

 

[memenito]

okay thank you very much sir.. ill post it as soon as the bsod comes again

 

[memenito]

no bsod so far.. what should i do?

 

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

That's good news. Use this guide http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lo...-driver-verifier-identify-issues-drivers.html and disable Driver Verifier.

 

[MvdB]

If Avast! was removed.... what AV are you now using?

 

[memenito]

sorry for my late reply.. out of town for 3 days.. i'm currently using microsoft security essentials as Capt. Jack recommended..

iv'e done removing driver verifier and gonna observe if my system will crash with these normal settings.. ill post it as soon as i get new results.. thanks guys

 

[MvdB]

Thx, good luck, hope it remains stable!

 

[memenito]

i got bsod again while playing crysis 2.. ( gotta run verifier again..

 

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

i got bsod again while playing crysis 2.. ( gotta run verifier again..

Sorry to hear that. I'll be waiting for the dumps

 

[memenito]

finally caught the bsod with driver verifier running.. but i got a little problem with perfmon / report.. it says parameter is incorrect so i didnt include the html file here

 

[MvdB]

I suspect an inconsistency due to unfinished/unsuccessful Windows Update.
Your system as a multitude of there errors:

Failed extract of third-party root list from auto update cab at: <http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3/static/trustedr/en/authrootstl.cab> with error: A required certificate is not within its validity period when verifying against the current system clock or the timestamp in the signed file.

The last dump point to a graphical driver, part of Directx.... we could go into that next but ensure the update first:
You also have some problems with Windows Update

Please go to your Maintenance Center and check the Windows Update status. Make sure you are up to date, do them one by one manually if needed.
For help or reset see: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/91738-windows-update-reset.html

 

[memenito]

done with the update reset.. should i install only the important updates or should i include the optional updates too?

 

[MvdB]

optional too would be my normal standard advice... with the exception of language packs if you don't have/need them.
