Solved BSOD during general computer use, multiple drivers reported

[Phred]

I have been having this problem for a while now. I am getting BSOD at random times when using my desktop. I've done 3 complete wipes and fresh installs but they continue to occur. Originally I thought it was a bad hard drive and so I upgraded to a SSD but this did not fix the issue.

I next thought this was a bad memory stick so I ran memtest86. It took about 4 hours for my single 8gb stick but there were no errors found.

I then thought my video card was too old to be compatible with the newer directX11, (was a radeonHD4830), and so I upgraded to a gtx750ti. At first this seemed to correct the issues but the started again recently.

The errors do not seem to happen at first, but when they do occur it seems they happen one after another. I found that I would get one pretty consistently after waking my computer in the morning. I then configured it to never sleep or turn off the display and the errors happened less.

Counterfeit installations such as yours contains heavily modified code that causes the installation to behave it unexpected ways. Analysing BSOD's and determining their causes on these sorts of installations is very unreliable.

My recommendation is to start with a clean slate, and install a genuine version of Windows. This will minimise the problems you are experiencing, and make subsequent diagnosis of BSOD's far more reliable. Once you are running a genuine Windows installation, and are still experiencing BSOD's, we will be happy to help you solve them.

Thank you for the reply. I went with a keygen mostly because my original windows key was an upgrade only and I didn't have my old XP install to start with and a new key from microsoft was the same price as a . I went ahead and retested my memory because I kept getting the memory management errors and it came up with thousands of errors so I'll be looking to replace that and purchase a genuine copy of 7 or 8.1 when I have the ability to do so.

Just wanted to leave a quick reply for conclusion's sake. Thanks for the upgrade help, I am now running a valid windows license again. Unfortunately doing so did not solve my issues and I went ahead and just swapped the memory stick. This cleared up any problems and I've been running ever since.
