BSOD while playing video games, running multiple apps

[BradenWade]

Hello. I am running windows 7 Home Premium 64bit edition on a custom built PC. I have had several BSOD's in the past few months that have started to be a bit more frequent than the last 2 and a half years running my pc so I'm trying to figure out what could be causing it as I need this computer for the 3d work that I do. I ran the log program and attached the crash dump files here. I just finished running a memtest and a chkdisk and neither returned any errors that I could find although some text briefly appeared on the screen upon startup. I can still run Windows but it occasionally BSODs when running multiple applications or just completely hangs. It doesn't happen every day, just randomly every few weeks thankfully. Earlier today I got a BSOD for page fault in non-paged area then when I restarted I got a bccode 50 bcc1 FFFFFA90130A97F0 bcc2 00000000000000 bcc 3 FFFF8800181D46F bcc 4 000000005 BSOD so I started it in safe mode and ran the aforementioned diagnostics. When the PC was shutting down windows from safe mode in order to start the tests it took 8 minutes to shut down and then I ended up turning it off manually. If someone could take a look at my logs and figure out what is causing these BSOD's that would be fantastic. I'm also wondering what kind of books I need to read/things I need to learn to be able to properly diagnose these issues myself in the future because I would love to be able to make sense of this stuff myself instead of having to just rely on google and pray the error codes I'm returning come up in a search.

Could not read faulting driver name
Probably caused by : [COLOR=Red]Ntfs.sys[/COLOR] ( Ntfs!NtfsNonCachedIo+60e )

Followup: MachineOwner
---------

STOP 0x00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Usual causes: Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus, Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS

As there is a chance of NTFS corruption (you see there are other probable causes too), let us try to minimize it.

• First, make it sure that your SSD is having the latest firmware. Version 070H.

• Next, Test your HDD using Seatools.
• Next, Uninstall MagicISO. The SCSI adapter installed by it may cause this issue.
• Next, Open the computer. Remove the SATA cables from the Marvel ports and apply them to any other ports. Marvel controllers are not very stable.

Let us know the result. If it BSODs again after completing all those steps, let us see the dumps. We will take the necessary actions depending on those.

Hey. Thanks for the reply. So far I uninstalled MagicISO and installed seatools but have not run it yet. I have a windows 7 disc for repairs if that helps but I was wondering how safe it is to update the firmware on my SSD? I'd rather avoid reinstalling windows if I can since I have a lot of installed programs I'd have to completely reinstall. I'm not sure what the difference is between the marvell ports and the other ones which the sata cable connects to since I'm pretty much a total novice regarding interior parts past plugging stuff in. Thanks for your help though I'll follow all these steps in the next few days. Right now I'm trying to finish a portfolio piece for a job application and backing up regularily while praying my computer doesn't fail on me >.>
