BSOD when browsing or idle

[Britton30]

No, if the battery is 99% it should be fine. I was thinking maybe it was falling below the required volts to maintain the power on.

 

[espica]

Video crashed. I attached the error notification capture.
I'm going to turn the laptop ON in the morning with a Clean Startup, only antivirus running.

Run Furmark as recommended here: STOP 0x116: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR troubleshooting

When Furmark fails - there are still several possibilities. The most common ones:

- Faulty Graphics Card
- Underpowered/Faulty PSU (what is your PSU? Brand? Model?)
- Faulty RAM (this is unlikely as you say the Prime95 Blend test and Memtest didn't show errors?)
- Faulty Motherboard (unlikely - as it's been replaced)
- Faulty CPU (very unlikely - anyway, Prime95 passed)

I rolled back the drivers but it loaded the default VGA drivers. I picked them up manually, it installed drivers from May 12th 2013. The newest installer I have is from May 29th 2013, those are the drivers I had before.

 

[espica]

Video crashed again, right after rebooting the laptop.

 

[espica]

I ran a System File Checker, verify only though.
It says:
Windows Resource Protection found integrity violations.

I can't access the log file, it says access denied.

 

[Britton30]

Run sfc /scannow without any switches, reboot.
You'll need to copy the cbs.log to the desktop to access it.

 

[espica]

It says:
Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.

Want me to upload the log file?

 

[koolkat77]

Personally at this point I would start with a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219487-clean-reinstall-factory-oem-windows-7-a.html

Personally at this point I would start with a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/219487-clean-reinstall-factory-oem-windows-7-a.html

Agreed.

 

[espica]

I don't really want to do it at this time lol
My internet has been painfully slow for the last two weeks, it will be a pain to re-download everything. I'm downloading the Windows 7 ISO at the moment, let's see how long it takes.

I'm currently in a semi clean start up (only Microsoft Security Essentials, USB 3.0, and Steam, besides RealTemp), the laptop has been ON for almost 8 hours. Only problems I've had is the mouse freezing for 1 second, it's happened twice.

 

[espica]

Updating.
Almost 22 hours with no BSOD or video crashes. Still with semi clean startup. I've had only two 1 second mouse freezes (the ones I mentioned before), and one few seconds mouse freeze (I thought I had to reboot the laptop, but it worked again).

 

[espica]

I got a BSOD today, it had been a while since I got the last one.
Oh well, I'll do the clean install as soon as I backup everything.

 

[Britton30]

You will have a nice clean and much faster system with a fresh install. It's never fun but needed at times.

Let us know if help is needed.

I already installed Windows 7, it took a while to find how to format from the installer (it's different from XP I think) and getting everything working again. I kinda panicked a bit after seeing Office Starter was nowhere to be found, but I found how to install it.

No BSOD so far, but I think the desktop crashed a few minutes ago. Firefox re started, notification icons were gone then came back again.
I ran the diagnostic tool, it said there were no dump files. I checked the dump settings, it's enable to Kernel dump.
I'm attaching the zip file.

Upload a screenshot using:

CrystalDiskInfo​

:tip: For how to upload a screenshot or file, read here

Test your Hard Drive by running:

Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure​

Use the System File Checker tool and Run Disk Check:

Repair Windows 7 System Files with System File Checker

Run Disk Check in Windows 7 for Bad Sectors & Errors​

 

[espica]

I did the SFC test, it found no errors.
I used a Western Digital tool to check the HDD. It passed the test, everything green.

I attached a screen capture of the CrystalDiskInfo window.

 

[Britton30]

While not dangerous...yet, your HDD temperature is near the max of 50C. I think you should go ahead and run http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/433-disk-check.html#post2010 Option two.

 

[espica]

I checked the HDD right before copying my files back to it, but I was running the scan over the night while taking naps so I don't know what were the results
Is there a log file containing the results?

 

[Britton30]

There should be but I don't know where, I'll ask for help.
