Frequently getting different kinds of BSODs

[DoubtGin]

Hi, I've had this problem a few months ago which was apparently caused by my WLAN driver but that shouldn't be the case now. The BSOD seem to be different this time around, as well.


Additional Info:

Probably another useless info but I want to include everything just to be sure:

Additionally, most of the time, ntoskrnl.exe seems to be the cause.

got a few more Bluescreens in the last few days, had no problems the days before

for some reason most Bluescreens don't get "saved" (no data saved on bluescreenview), sometimes it just freezes without the blue screen appearing.

Last BSOD that I actually get infos from displayed "ntoskrnl.exe" and "cfosspeed6.sys" as the causes.

I will look at the previous files, in the mean time can you post up the latest files using the tool?

 

[DoubtGin]

Ok, here it is (last minidump only).

The last BSOD was caused by cFosSpeed for faster Internet connections
(c:\windows\system32\drivers\cfosspeed6.sys)

BugCheck D1, {fffff880034889b0, 2, 0, fffff880034889b0}

*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for cfosspeed6.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for cfosspeed6.sys

I would suggest you to uninstall it, as it is a problem wherever it is installed.

Daemon Tools, Alcohol 120% and Power Archiver Pro uses SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD), which is a well known BSOD causer. Uninstall Daemon Tools at first. Then download SPTD standalone installer from Disk-Tools.com, and execute the downloaded file as guided below :

• Double click to open it.
• Click this button only:
• 
• If it is grayed out, as in the picture, there is no more SPTD in your system, and you just close the window.

Free up the startup. Windows does not need any other program to auto start with it, but the auto start programs often conflicts and causes various problems including BSODs.

1. Click on the Start button
2. Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
3. Select the “Startup” tab.
4. Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
5. Apply > OK
6. Accept then restart.

Let us know the results.

Thanks, I've done all of that now. I'll report back if there's another BSOD (or if the problem is solved).

Got another one just minutes ago.

Probably caused by : ntkrnlmp.exe ( nt!KiDoubleFaultAbort+b2 )

Hi. It indicates a double fault. It may be caused either by a kernel stack overflow or by a hardware issue.

The first step to troubleshoot this issue would be to perform a clean install using a genuine media, and activating that installation by a legit key. The key that is in use is not legit for a retail ASRock motherboard, but for a Packard OEM.

Thanks a ton. I haven't understood much of it, though (since I'm not knowledgable in this field). Especially the info you provided that is in quotes.

What am I supposed to install? What is a "genuine media"? Where to get a "legit key"?

I assume the key that I currently use is not the correct one?

Thanks in advance again.

What he means is buy a new installation of windows with a legit product key from a legit retailer.
Your Windows is counterfeit so it contains heavily modified code that can act in unexpected ways.

Back all of your important files up and wipe the drive clean, then install the genuine copy of windows and start from there.

Unfortunately Windows costs around £70 which is 85 euros.

If you get any issues after a clean install then we will help.

If you are unsure how to perform a clean installation then here's some instructions.

You are supposed to install Windows; that is the Operating System.

A genuine media is the installation media that is obtained from Windows.

A legit key is a key that is for that particular installation media.

I assume the key that I currently use is not the correct one?

Yes, it is true. The key makes the installation counterfeit. And anything may happen there.

 

[DoubtGin]

Thank you guys.

Is that definitely the issue here? I'm thinking about acquiring Win 7 now, but is there a possibility that isn't actually the solution?

 

[Arc]

It is a must to do to continue with the troubleshooting process, as any issue is possible with a counterfeit installation.

Not only this, but according to forum rules we are not allowed to help if you are running a counterfeit version of windows.

[DoubtGin]

Alright, thanks. I didn't know it was such a version.

I didn't buy a finished pc, I had it build together (is that how it is called in English, sry it's not my first language) somewhere and I assumed they used a legit one there (I didn't install Win 7 myself).

Thanks again. I'll report back when I "clean install" Win 7.

Hi again. I checked if my Win 7 is genuine or not and got this message (in German).

Or is the "counterfeit" product you talked about something completely different?

 

[Thedoctor44]

Have you done a clean install?

With your existing product key, it is a "Successful Counterfeit Activation" which is illegal.
