My display driver is always last driver. Not preview or beta. I have one graphic card.
Everytime I uninstall and clean in safe mode with Driver Cleaner Pro or Driver Sweaper or both and first uninstall in device manager. Sound driver is same like always from mobo site

Now wait 12.1 driver. But I think this is not software issue or is some windows update.

My computer work almost one year normal.
No HW install few months. Maybe 11.12 is problem but I am not sure. I must wait few hours or few days to see BSOD.
Everything is on default clocks and now wait. I flash mobo BIOS, connect everything again.
PSU only can test 5V and 12V with multimeter on molex and
both rails are perfect.
I will test RAM overnight. No BSOD today with several restart but problem it's not over.
Everything is under warranty but I must know first what is problem???

I install BlueScrean Viewer but no minidump file no.
When hit again i will post.

 

[writhziden]

To configure Windows to create minidumps, see http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html OPTION ONE part 6. Also, do not use CCleaner or Windows disk cleaner after a blue screen as these may delete the minidump files.

 

[Vlada]

OK i have BSOD after few minutes but need help to post (sorry).
I do what you say and save report in my documents Windows_NT6_BSOD_jcgriff2 folder.
And System Healt Report I save as HTML to desktop.
What now to do with HTML and folder in my documents.

If you are overclocking anything, please stop.

Older versions of ASACPI.SYS are a known BSOD problem on Windows 7. Update the driver by:

1. Going to the Asus motherboard support site
   When you reach the website:
2. Scroll down the page and click Utilities
3. Hold Ctrl and press f (ctrl+f) to enter the browser's find feature
4. Search for "ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Win7 32&64-bit" (without quotes)
5. Download and install the driver.
6. After installation is complete, verify that it installed correctly.
   • Click Start Menu
   • Click My Computer
   • Go to C:\WIndows\System32\drivers\
   • Verify that the ASACPI.SYS file is dated 2009 or newer (2010,etc.)

Thanks to JMH and zigzag3143 for the above information.

Yes I OC Graphic card with CCC little, memory on 1600Mhz and CPU from 3.4 to 3.8GHz. But i think Crosshair 4 Formula give me some OC possibility, I update yesterday after fresh install some file with that name ATK0110....
I see in Windows Update options and I check and install.

Yes I find driver

 

[writhziden]

Alright, post back whether you continue to have blue screen crashes after updating the driver.

 

[Vlada]

I install for 64bit OS and he restart my system.
I think this is successfull installation.
Only on one second I see some window and restart system.
I don't know how to see ASACPI.sys but I think before is 29.Mar.2005 and now May 2009.
I see previous version in options.

Yes, your installation was successful. Best wishes that stability improves.

 

[Vlada]

I swear in god that file was suspicious for me but I thought to reinstallk system again and not update that file.
Thank you. I hope now BSOD stop but i prey to survive until Ivy Bridge. I plan to upgrade comp on summer but it's long period and no money for two upgrades.
Thanks again.

 

[Vlada]

Still OK, No BSOD After your advice for Driver Installation.
I hope everything will be OK now.
Thanks Again.

 

[writhziden]

Glad it has been stable. Good luck!
