my pc is locking up in certain games like quakelive.com, battlefield bad company 2. the graphics lock and the sound loops and i have to hard boot it. then i get a notice that i had a blue screen. i have tried to track this down but am not so lucky. so far i have tried memtest with individual test and in diff pairs and as a whole with multiple passes. wd diagnostics and pc doctor 7.5 dongle test with full rang of tests taking 8 hours. everything passes. my 9800gx2 failed recently so i sent it back to evga for replacement and there sending me a gtx280 for replacement. i thought the card was the problem but i have a ati hd4350 and its still doing the problem. any ideas would be greatly appreciated. i wanted to try driver verifier but not sure how it really works or if im wasting my time.

20 memory dumps from 26 Mar 2010 to the present (about 2 months)
18 are STOP 0x124's (info here: http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lockup-debug-how/35349-2-int-stop-0x124-what-means-what-try.html ) Basically a STOP 0x124 means you either have broken hardware or incompatible hardware/software

There is a Driver Verifier error from 21 May that points to a Windows file. How did you run Driver Verifier? Did you ask it to verify Microsoft files? If not, then this is also indicative of a hardware error. Because it points to USB stuff, I'd suggest removing all USB stuff to see if that helps (but it's just a SWAG on my part).

I'd suggest providing us with the following file to see if we can see if we can identify any problem programs:
MSINFO32:
Please go to Start and type in "msinfo32.exe" (without the quotes) and press Enter
Save the report as an .nfo file, then zip up the .nfo file and upload/attach the .zip file with your next post.

If you're having difficulties with the format, please open an elevated (Run as administrator) Command Prompt and type "msinfo32 /nfo C:\Users\Public\Desktop\TEST.NFO" (without the quotes) and press Enter. Then navigate to the C:\Users\Public\Desktop directory to retrieve the TEST.NFO file. If you have difficulties with making this work, please post back.

I'll post back once the dumps are finished running...

ok trying to reply as fast as possible

the pcoffin.sys is related to dvdfab for copying dvd's. should i replace it with a newer one or just uninstall the program?. i was tinkering with driver verifier and followed these directions but mainly just playing because i wasnt sure these were the right instructions Driver Verifier - Windows 7 & Vista - Tech Support Forum

i also have a readyboost 4gb sandisk cruzer. should i remove that for the time being also? please advise.

In short, the more that you remove - the greater the chance that you'll remove what's causing the issue.
Just keep track of what you've removed so you can reconstruct the system.

Those instructions were written by jcgriff2 (who also posts here). He's an outstanding BSOD analyst and I'd recommend using any tools that he's published. I've also written a Driver Verifier "how-to" here: Driver Verifier Settings It's a bit different than jcgriff2's.
BUT, there's not much use in running Driver Verifier to fix and STOP 0x124 errors (but it can't hurt!).

Remove the ReadyBoost drive until we've solved the issue.

BTW - I missed this BSOD, and it's (IMO) an important one:

Do you have 2 antivirus' running? If so, please only leave one resident in memory.

So, we'll have to go back to the basics:
H/W Diagnostics:
Please start by running these bootable hardware diagnostics:
Memory Diagnostics (read the details at the link)
HD Diagnostic (read the details at the link)

Also, please run one of these free, independent online malware scans to ensure that your current protection hasn't been compromised: Malware (read the details at the link)

*****
Additional tests for certain specific circumstances:
Try this free video stress test: FurMark: Graphics Card Stability and Stress Test, OpenGL Benchmark and GPU Temperature | oZone3D.Net
FurMark Setup:
- If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup
- In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature"
Click "Go" to start the test
- Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first).
- Click "Quit" to exit
Try this free stress test: Free Software - GIMPS
Prime95 Setup:
- extract the contents of the zip file to a location of your choice
- double click on the executable file
- select "Just stress testing"
- select the "Blend" test. If you've already run MemTest overnight you may want to run the "Small FFTs" test instead.
- "Number of torture test threads to run" should equal the number of CPU's times 2 (if you're using hyperthreading).
The easiest way to figure this out is to go to Task Manager...Performance tab - and see the number of boxes under CPU Usage History
Then run the test for 6 to 24 hours - or until you get errors (whichever comes first).
The Test selection box and the stress.txt file describes what components that the program stresses.

One of the FurMark screenshots shows 103º C with 2 video cards, the other shows 67º C with one video card.

I would suspect that you would have issues with the 103º C and 2 video cards - and not have issues with the 67º C and 1 video card.

Is that true?

Not a problem - are you having any issues with the hd4350?
If not, then we can presume that the other video card was to blame - and, as such, the replacement should work just fine also.

ok i sent you a pm. i removed that and ran sfc and chkdsk. chkdsk came back clean. sfc found some problems and repaired them. i have included the cbs.log and pic of the sfc results. the sfc is now saying its integrity is good. but now im not genuine. weird.... i tested quakelive again and no crash. im still going to play some more and see what happens.

since the upload feature is broken for me i uploaded it for ya.

The large dump file blames your Razer mouse drivers (vHidDev.sys). Please uninstall them, then download a fresh copy from the Razer website. Please be advised that, normally, this only fixes the problem ½ of the time.
