BSOD when playing games/opening many browser tabs

[SubTerra]

I've had a lot of bsod's in the past but this set has come at the same time that I'm having issues with powering my usb peripherals. I'm suspecting there might be a hardware issue I wouldn't be able to diagnose alone. Bsod's start 10-20 minutes into playing games or an hour or two into internet browsing. Any point in the right direction is appreciated.

it looks like your graphics is the issue, try someone else's card.

At one point it was but that was fixed, please ignore all but the latest 3 bsod's.

looks like it could be hardware, use these to check:

Hiya and welcome to SevenForums!rb:

NO, DON'T RUN IT! SEATOOLS IS ONLY FOR HDD'S!

BugCheck F4, {3, fffffa800bebfb30, fffffa800bebfe10, fffff80003bcd940}

Probably caused by : csrss.exe

Most of your bugchecks is 0xF4's. This could mean that there's a virus, a failing harddrive, failing RAM stick/s. Run the CD that came with your SSD. Also run MemTest86+ for 8 passes. It must be MemTest86+. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html Scan your computer for viruses using Malwarebytes. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/338716-malwarebytes-anti-malware-free.html

Updating my ssd's firmware with corsair tools fixed everything, including my usb power issues. Thank you for the help.

No problem! It's my duty to help!

 

[SubTerra]

Well two days and one bsod later all problems are back. Not sure what to make of this.

 

[Laith]

Hmm,

BugCheck F4, {3, fffffa800cebc620, fffffa800cebc900, fffff80003bcc940}

Probably caused by : wininit.exe

Have you run MemTest86+?

 

[SubTerra]

I ran it for a single pass with 0 errors. I stopped it because I had something I needed to do and a single pass took over an hour. If its crucial I run it more I will let it go overnight.

 

[Laith]

It is crucial, it will see if the DIMM or the RAM is failing.

 

[SubTerra]

Well I've got a new symptom now and its happening every 20 minutes at most making my computer unusable. Basically all my processes stop working one after the other, starting with skype, then chrome, then windows explorer and eventually it just shuts down. This takes 5+ minutes and all I can do is move the mouse around while it happens.

 

[Laith]

But have you run MemTest86+ yet?

 

[SubTerra]

Completed 8 passes with no errors apart from the fact that test #8, moving inversion 32 bit, would complete slowly and hang up the program. The pass bar would continue to slowly fill and everything would stay at 100% until I skipped the current test. Had to do this for all 8 passes, not sure if it's relevant to anything. I've also cloned my ssd to a hdd and have been booting from it but still have all the same issues.

 

[Laith]

Have you scanned for viruses?

 

[SubTerra]

Full scan with MSE is clean.

 

[Laith]

Have you used Malwarebytes?

 

[SubTerra]

Ran a /sfc scannow and problem seems solved again.

 

[SubTerra]

So as usual my computer is back in it's sorry state again after a few days. Malwarebytes scan showed up clean and now to the expanded list of issues:

Skype wouldn't run, citing a wrong windows version (64 or 32 bit) as the problem. Skype would not uninstall by itself, had to run ms fix it to fix the registry allowing me to reinstall skype.

A portable hard drive that I had no problems using before my computer started suffering now tells me it needs to be reformatted before use. This could just be an extension of my usb power issue.

Please post the new dumps.
