Solved BSOD when trying to shut down the computer

[etsnsm]

From a university bookstore

I realize the idiocy of me here, but it says 64-bit x64 upgrade: pre-existing OS license required. And I installed this windows 7 on a new custom built computer.
It has a cd-key on the back of it, and I assumed that it was okay to just do a fresh install with no previous license.

When running SFC, did you run it by going into the Recovery Environment at disk bootup, or did you enter it by first loading up the Windows CD and entering the Recovery Environment from there? If the former, you most likely have a failed HD or some issue with your drive controller. If the latter, you might have a messed up or illegal DVD of Windows 7.

Try returning to the Recovery Environment on your Windows disc (not from the drive) and enter CHKDSK C: /R in the command prompt just as you did with SFC scan. If you didn't go the way of the Windows disc, you can follow these instructions up to the point where you enter the command prompt, where you can then enter that command.

If CHKDSK runs and you start seeing a good bit of errors, then most likely you have a hardware problem, that being the aforementioned HD/disk controller. This is especially true if you run through it a second time and it still shows up more errors.

You may also run Seatools on all tests (except Advanced) to verify drive integrity. Note that if you are using outdated and/or bugged RAID drivers, disk controller drivers, chipset drivers, BIOS, or drive firmware (if you are using an SSD), then these can reflect in the hardware tests as well as potentially cause all the file corruptions taking place.

 

[etsnsm]

I utilized sfc by opening up my command prompt while in windows. I'll try booting it from the disk and running sfc offline.
I've used chkdsk /r many times before and I haven't had any issues.
I've already ran Seatools and I haven't had any issues.
I have no SD.
My BIOS has been flashed.
As for my disk controller drivers and chipset drivers, I don't know how to determine their integrity.

 

[Vir Gnarus]

Just update the disk controller/chipset drivers to latest to ensure they're ok.

Only other recommendation given that you're experiencing both BSODs and usermode crashes is to have you run Memtest86+ for at least 7 passes on your RAM.

 

[etsnsm]

Alright, I'm currently on vacation, visiting relatives for a week, so I'll meet with you guys in one weeks time. Until then.

Back, i'm going to purchase a new set of ram chips later tonight, but I have a question.

If my ram chips now are set to 1600 9-9-9-24
Can I purchase anything better if possible?
Meaning, I'll switch out my ram chips now with new ones, but once I rma it, I'm wanting to just have 4 ram chips in total once the RMA transacts and sends my new ones through.
So in essence, what if one set of the ram chips are like 2200 9-9-9-24 [Random] instead of 1600 9-9-9-24?
What would I have to set in my bios?
Is this a good idea to mix and match for slots 1-3 and 2-4. Meaning 1-3 will have the same type of ram chips, as for 2-4.

If anyone is reading, i'm still here ^^"

P.S. Thanks for the other two people that have been helping me in this journey.

 

[Vir Gnarus]

To my recollection, you can't mix n match speeds, nor can you deviate from the RAM speeds supported by your motherboard. You'll want to refer to your motherboard's manual for that.

I bought a 1.65V 1600MHZ kingston ram set [2chips]
And I ran a sfc and the only issue that I have on multiple accounts has to do with volsnap.inf
How do I fix this?

Also, the ram before the recently purchased one was a 1.5V 1600MHZ Corsair ram.
By stating that I can't mix and match speeds, does that mean I can't RMA the 1.5V 1600MHZ Corsair RAM and use it with the ones I have in my computer right now?

 

[writhziden]

You could try it, but it is not advised. Mixing voltages can have instability problems, as well. It is possible it will work, but as I said, it is better to get the exact same RAM kits at the exact same time to make sure no changes were made between sets.

I have read of people buying the exact same kits at different times and it causing problems (blue screen crashes) because the new kit has a different voltage than the old kit. When I buy multiple kits, I always buy them at the same time from the same seller to avoid such conflicts.


That said: If you do decide to RMA the RAM, make sure to run both sets at 1.65 Volts. Often, 1.5 Volt RAM can be overclocked to 1.65 Volts with no problems. That does not mean the two sets will work together, but it would be the best way to set it up if you wanted to try.


If you swap any memory components, follow these steps for ESD safety:

1. Shut down and turn off your computer.
2. Unplug all power supplies to the computer (AC Power then battery for laptops, AC power for desktops)
3. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds to close the circuit and ensure all power drains from components.
4. Make sure you are grounded by using proper grounding techniques, i.e. work on an anti-static workbench, anti-static desk, or an anti-static pad. Hold something metallic while touching it to the anti-static surface, or use an anti-static wristband to attach to the anti-static material while working. If you do not have an anti-static workbench, desk, or pad, you can use your computer tower/case by finding a metal hold in it, such as a drive bay.

Once these steps have been followed, it is safe to remove and replace components within your computer.

 

[etsnsm]

Okay, I'll just RMA it.

When I purchase ram, do I have to purchase "Kits" that come in packs of 4?
Or can I buy the packs of 2, and just purchase 2 of them to equal 4?
Meaning, if 1 pack = 8gb [4*2], and I want 16, can I just purchase the same set of packs?
Also, I did thoroughly read through the info. you provided, however, just to clarify a bit more,
If I have a set of CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B, which I purchased months ago, and I purchase another set of CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B, will this still mean i'm prone to instability and bsods?
Because I know these Rams come in sets of 4 as well.

 

[writhziden]

Not saying you'll be prone to them if you buy them at different times, just that it is a possibility. It is better to buy a pack of 4 if it is available, but two sets of 2 usually work. As I said, I have seen times when they didn't. I have even seen two "identical" packs bought at the same time end up being slightly different, though that is really rare.

And if you get two packs that are not actually identical, you can RMA them and ask to get two packs that are identical and companies are very good about doing so the second time around.

 

[etsnsm]

Just to clarify, that means that if I have a cmz16gx3m4a1600c9b, I can get another set of cmz16gx3m4a1600c9b 8gb [4*2] ram chips? Just as long as they're the same model as the ones I'm about to RMA?
Or am I not advised to use them because I didn't buy the same pack of ram chips together months before I bought my first set of ram chips?

 

[writhziden]

Yes, you can get the same model. It will likely work with your current set if the current set and the new set are both the same model.

 

[Dave76]

Agree with writhziden, they should work.

Be sure to get 1.5v RAM, that voltage is recommended for your CPU. I would not recommend any 1.65V RAM for any Intel i3, i5 or i7.
I have had very good luck with my Vengeance RAM.
