BSOD - KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR 0x0000007A - Randomly occurring

[Benjamin O]

Hello there. I'm running Win 7 Home Premium 64bit
I've been having trouble the last couple weeks with my computer randomly blue screening either when I leave it alone for a while (30-60 min) or while I'm playing various games. The screen will freeze, the sound will start repeating/buzzing and then the BSOD appears.

DM Log Collector files

Hey there! Dumps aren't enabled. Enable them and post the new BSOD.

Is there an easy way to determine if dumps are enabled and/or are actively stored? Because I've used Option One and Option Two on that list from http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html, and I still don't see a change in the DM Log Collector files or the Windows files area.

For it to collect new dump logs I need to let it BSOD again, correct? Because I've done that it still doesn't seem to create the dump files?

 

[Laith]

Hmm, take a picture of the BSOD when it occurs.

 

[Benjamin O]

Alright, got it to blue screen and it does appear to be failing when trying to dump the files. (And that is a different BSOD error)

 

[Laith]

I'm certain that this is a harddrive error. Run Seatools.

Which test should I run using SeaTools? or should I run multiple?

 

[Laith]

Hmm, the full test.

 

[Benjamin O]

The Long Generic? or the Fix All (Fast / Long)?

 

[Laith]

Fix All Long.

 

[Benjamin O]

I ran the Fix All (Long), about 15% in, a message appeared saying something about the 'Log was not saved', and then the computer blue screened again. I think it hit something that triggered the BSOD perhaps?

 

[Laith]

Run the DOS version of SeaTools. I already knew that the harddrive failed. This can maybe help fix the failing harddrive but if it dosen't then you must replace it.
