Hi, I did sent in my graphic card for warranty at first, but it is still showing BSOD.

P/S: usually playing DoTA 2

Your GPU is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560.... and the driver is too old.

    Loaded symbol image file: nvlddmkm.sys

So it is failing.

Download and install this one: NVIDIA DRIVERS 314.22WHQL

Let us know the results.

Dear Arc, thanks for the help! I'm going to try it now, will let you know the results later

 

[jaysontan]

Dear Arc, I've updated the driver. But, it still shows BSOD.

 

[Arc]

It shows a hardware error.

[COLOR=Red]BugCheck 124[/COLOR], {0, fffffa80079bb028, be000000, 800400}

Probably caused by : GenuineIntel

No specific hardware component can be blamed.

Stop overclocking.

CPUID:        "Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3550 CPU @ 3.30GHz"
MaxSpeed:     3300
[COLOR=Red]CurrentSpeed: 3399[/COLOR]

As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/311593-speccy-publish-snapshot-your-system-specs.html .

Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.
eXtreme Power Supply Calculator
Also let us know the wattage of the PSU.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.
If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

Stress test the CPU.

Also plan to update the BIOS to Version 2303: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8Z77V_LX/HelpDesk_Download/

Let us know the results.

Dear Arc, may I know how to stop overclocking please? Thank you.

 

[Arc]

The best way is to clear coms.

But on some ASUS boards, it gives adverse results. Better you enter the BIOS and set the hardware (GPU, CPU and RAM) to its defaults.

Will power supply cause BSOD?

Yes, it does. But you did not tell as about its wattage.

The CPU is running extremely hot.

Dismantle the computer. Clean all inside very carefully, without breaking anything. Clean all the air vents and fan grills, so that it can blow the hot air out effectively. While re-seating. apply new thermal paste to the CPU.



Do it as early as possible!

PCU wattage : 650W

P/S: It will restart automatically, please refer to the screen shots that I uploaded

 

[jaysontan]

I've notice that GPU temp went 60c while idling

I've notice that GPU temp went 60c while idling

That is normal.

What is the situation after re-applying thermal paste?

 

[jaysontan]

Glad that you replied here

After re-applying thermal paste, CPU temp 50-60c.
Unfortunately, it will auto restart while playing DoTa 2 or watching Youtube seldom and it takes a few time for me to power on it after it restarts.

Next time, when the auto restart will take place, upload the data as per BSOD posting instructions? May be we can get something from the logs.

 

[jaysontan]

There are three .dmp files which is the same that I had uploaded earlier.

P/S: There is no Bluescreen error when it auto restart. I had disable ASUS Anti-Surge, is this the reason that why bluescreen error are not shown?

\??\C:\Windows\SysWow64\drivers\360netmon.sys has been blocked from loading due to incompatibility with this system. Please contact your software vendor for a compatible version of the driver.

So it appears that the 360 antivirus is incompatible.

Uninstall it. Apply any other good antivirus. I recommend Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.

Download, install and update those, and then run full system scans with both of them, one by one; as the installed antivirus failed.
