Getting a BSOD related to ntoskrnl.exe fairly often

[Reyjakai]

Not sure how long I was supposed to run it for, but I ran it for ~20 minutes. Temperature never went above 86C and stayed pretty stable. Anything specific I'm supposed to do on furmark?

 

[Laith]

Not really, seems good to me.

Run Prime95, if the temps goes too high stop the test. www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100352-hardware-stress-test-prime95.html

 

[Reyjakai]

Alrighty, I ran Prime95 for 2 hours and 4 minutes, 0 errors and warnings on all cores. Temperature was sitting around 98C for all the cores during the test, and it normally sits at ~50 under normal load.

 

[Laith]

98C? That must be a bad cooler. Replace your CPU cooler.

 

[Reyjakai]

That's what I was thinking as well. I've seen differing opinions online. I'll go ahead and replace it and see if the bluescreening stops. Hopefully it's something as simple as my computer shutting down to prevent damage to the CPU.

 

[Laith]

I have my fingers crossed.

 

[Reyjakai]

Alright, picked up a coolermaster cooler, popped it in the computer, and it's definitely idling lower, around ~35C. I'll see if it bluescreens.

 

[Reyjakai]

And it crashed again.

 

[Laith]

Can you re-install Windows?

 

[Reyjakai]

Alright, gonna upload the latest DM logs before I do an OSRI. They seem different than the ones I've been having.

 

[Reyjakai]

Alrighty, completely formatted both drives, reinstalled windows from scratch, and we're back with a memory issue, somehow. Could my HDD be causing problems?

 

[Laith]

Run the tools that came with your SSD.

Run MemTest86+, It must be MemTest86+. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

 

[Reyjakai]

Ran those, still came back clean. Could it be my video card? Some of the stop errors I'm getting are definitely related to that.

 

[Laith]

Hmm, run Speecy http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/306654-speccy-advanced-system-information-tool.html

 

[Reyjakai]

Here ya are.

 

[Laith]

Hmm, Run Furmark, if the temps goes too high stop the test. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100356-video-card-stress-test-furmark.html

 

[Reyjakai]

Ran it, no stuttering and 83C is the highest it got.

 

[Laith]

I'm completely clueless now. I'll send our professional BSOD helper to aid you.

I cannot read the crash dumps for some technical reasons. My friend Laith guided me that the faults are IRST related.

Here, in your case IRST is used as AHCI mode driver. So we can try to remove IRST and apply the system native AHCI driver msahci.sys which never fails. First uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then Uninstall the driver from device manager.

1. Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
2. It will open the "computer management" window.
3. Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices up.
4. Expand "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
5. Select one Intel device item under it, right click, uninstall.
6. Continue the process for all Intel items under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
7. Now restart the computer. At restart, windows will auto configure the appropriate native system driver.

See how it goes. Let us know.

 

[Reyjakai]

Well, something definitely changed. The only device that was there initially was the "Intel device etc.", so I deleted that, restarted a few times (Since it recommended that I did) and now it shows two ATA devices as well as a standard AHCI 1.0 serial ATA controller.
