Help I've tried nearly everything - Lock up with NO BSOD

[mzpresto]

Hi Guys.

I just built a new PC with a mixture of new and old parts.

hardware:

NEW:

ASUS AM3 M4A87TD / USB3 - MOTHERBOARD
PHENOM II X4 970 3.5GHZ AM3 L2/L3 8MB 12 5W PIB - PROCESSOR
2X 2GB CORSAIR DDR3 MEMORY STICK

OLD:

GEFORCE NVIDIA 6600 GT - GRAPHICS CARD - (worked fine on old system for 6 years)
500 WATT PSU - (worked fine on old system for 6 years)
500 GB SATA WESTERN DIGITAL - HARD DRIVE
PIONEER IDE DVD/CD WRITER - (currently disconnected due to problems)

Fresh install of Windows 7, Ultimate, 32bit after format of partition.
No USB devices connected other than mouse and keyboard.

Latest ASUS Bios update Version 2001. Latest LAN, NIC, AUDIO, CHIPSET, NVIDIA drivers installed.

AVG removed COMPLETELY - Currently PANDA Antivirus installed.

OK When I built the machine it was temperamental from the start, it would not always load windows, sometimes it would hang on windows start screen, sometimes even in the BIOS itself! Scary Sh*t lol. If it did manage to boot up sometimes it would hang on desktop. Crashes varied sometimes would run fine for hours.

Reseated RAMM about 16 times, reseated graphics card, I have run the memtest but with both sticks on and only 2 passes but no errors.

Scanned Hard drive no errors and fragmented.

Tried flashing BIOS, removed CMOS battery, reinstalled everything etc.

It started to get a little more stable but then the BSODs started. I have posted them below newest at the top the bottom one is right after I flashed BIOS and removed CMOS battery (they were still happening before then):

I changed the voltage on my ram, to match what the mobo recommended for my ramm compatibility wise changed to 1.65 volts or something and this stopped the BSODs although might just be a coincidence...

The system still locks up but this time with NO BSOD, however in Windows Event Manager it mentions a Kernel 41 error:

The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

ALSO just found this, but have the latest NVIDIA Drivers.....

What the hell is it??? LOL

75% of forums say bad ramm, place were I bought it from have said bring it in, but from what I've said they suspect faulty mobo, some people say CPU or PSU but my instinct says maybe graphics card.

Can anyone help

Thanks

I ran Driver Sweeper and it said I had issues with Nvidia so I uninstalled the conflict. I then completely uninstalled all Nvidia Drivers via uninstall programs and rebooted. Windows automatically installed correct drivers for my GFX card with out even asking, but I'm OK with that it seems to like it.....

I left it for a couple of hours and it locked up again WTF!!! This time saying I have USB 3.0 problems, so I uninstalled the driver and let windows install it again after reboot.. Now it's the waiting game again I guess

 

[mzpresto]

OK I've also noticed all this in the event viewer not sure if they were ALL before the last crash, the USB one was though:

Session "Microsoft-Windows-Setup" stopped due to the following error: 0xC000000D

Are you sure you got the right W7 compatible driver for the video card?
Does it crash in Safe mode?
Are you able to post crash files? See tutorial refrenced at the top of this thread.

 

[mzpresto]

Hi MvDB

Thanks I have attached a zip file with the reports, I will leave in safe mode tonight over night and see if it crashes

No idea if I have the right W7 compatible drivers, windows update just installed them after i completely wiped all GFX drivers. I used the same drivers that worked with my old system, this same GFX card and W7 32 bit initially though and sitll got crashes.... I am not 100% sure if it is 6600 GT or GE and Nvidia wont detect it, going to open it up and have a look.

Thanks karlsnooks, it is already attached as a zip in one of my posts above

 

[karlsnooks]

I apologize. I missed that. I'm sure that one the bsod analyzers will be by in a little bit with sound advice for you.

 

[mzpresto]

Thanks I can definitely see that this is the forum to post in, best I have come across on the net

I don't want to hold my breath because it was crashing before I changed the RAM voltage anyway, but initially it was set to auto in BIOS and I changed it to 1.65 volts because I read somewhere that this was right voltage for my RAM, but not so I was mistaken the voltage for my RAM should in fact be 1.50 volts. I have now changed it down to this so we will see what happens.....

Something must be unstable though to cause all these errors and bsods I can't have been that unlucky with bad drivers could I? Or does just one have a chain reaction

 

[karlsnooks]

Help us out some.

[mzpresto]

Done and it just blue screened lol - ntkrnlpa.exe related. Going to leave it in safemode tonight and see what happens.

Not sure about my PSU it doesn't say what it is but fairly certain is at least 500 watts

 

[karlsnooks]

Thanks for the spec info.

If you take the case off of the computer, then you probably will be read more about the mfg and the power output of your power supply..

When in an earlier post, you said that the bsod didn't show up in viewer, were you referring to:
Blue screen of death (STOP error) information in dump files.

 

[mzpresto]

Karl I was referring to Bluescreenviewer that I downloaded from nirsoft. Also took the case off it does show the wattage of every individual aspect on a sticker but not overall

OK unfortunately not only did it crash in safe mode, but was crashed on the bios screen loading asus express gate, when I came down this morning.

These are the errors:

[karlsnooks]

One of the blue screen chaps should be by soon.

Analysis of minidumps is not my area of expertise.

 

[mzpresto]

I give up! Just gonna take it in and get a new board see what that does. Thanks anyways

 

[mzpresto]

Board was fine, Ram was fine, CPU was fine....

Bought a new GFX card, PSU and Optical drive.....

However the problem was my sheer stupidity....

I failed to connect the 4 block part from the PSU to the MOBO so the CPU was not getting enough power!!!

LOL
