Newly Constructed PC, BSOD Problem

[Snazzle1088]

First of all, I want to extend a massive thanks to everyone here who helps out, I REALLY appreciate it.

I just built a brand new PC, and am receiving the BSOD. Now I am new to all of this, so I am not too well versed in how to check the event log and what not. It has gone to the blue screen twice now, each after about two hours running time. I can not figure out what is causing it. The first time, I was simply checking out the new PC, on IE. The second time, after about two hours, I was running Microsoft Security Essentials, and doing nothing else. It had finished, and the PC had reset, and I can only come to the conclusion that it was the Blue Screen. CPU temps are between 36C and 42C for an i7 960, and cpu fan speeds are normal, between 2058 and 2120 RPMs. I am currently awaiting another blue screen, so I can read what happened, and write it down. In the meantime, and pointers on how to check the even log? I know how to get it open, but not what to look for. Once I discover the issue, I don't think I will know how to fix it.

Once I am able to obtain further details on the crash I will provide them.

Edit: Okay I hope I did this correctly

Hello !! Welcome to SF !!

The issue is quiet straight forward. It's your Memory that has casued the problem. Follow the below steps.

If you have an Antivirus / Firewall try uninstalling it and see whether it makes any difference. Update your BIOS Firmware.

Run the Memory Diagnostic & HD Diagnostic

Start > CMD > Right Click and Run as Administrator > SFC /SCANNOW

Here a old driver from 2005 which is well known for problem

ASACPI.sys is well known for problem. It belongs to Asus utility. Remove the Asus utilities completly. Download it from here Here MB_WIN7_ATK.ZIP and install

or

Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers and rename ASACPI.sys to ASACPI.old and reboot the System.

Those dmps didn't give too much info. You had bugchecks 1E and A:

A:

Usual causes: Kernel mode driver, System Service, BIOS, Windows, Virus scanner, Backup tool, compatibility

BSOD Index

1E:

Usual causes: Device driver, hardware, System service, compatibility, Remote control programs, memory, BIOS

BSOD Index

I suggest removing Norton, updating your BIOS, and running a memory test.

Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder. Boot from the CD, and run at least 5 passes.

Uninstall Norton from Programs and Features, and run its removal tool: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

Then download and install Microsoft Security Essentials.

Search for your motherboard here for a BIOS update: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-

I'd say the most important thing is a memory test though.

I just want to check up on something here, since I have never run this test before. Just to make sure I am correct, I have to tell the system to boot from the CD in my BIOS correct? Once that happens, I run this memtest (one stick at a time is what I have heard in the past for other people) and let it run five passes for each stick? If memory is the issue, I need to replace that/those stick(s)? I removed Norton already, and from what I gather, I simply burn the ISO to the CD using ISO Recorder in order to do all of this? The tutorial on the ISO Recorder site is exactly how to do that burn, correct?

 

[Jonathan_King]

Yes, that's correct. Rememer, any time Memtest suggests memory errors, it can also mean a bad motherboard slot. If all the sticks show errors, try testing them in another slot.

 

[Snazzle1088]

Understood. Okay, I am going to grab lunch and then get this going. A HUGE thanks to everyone here, I didn't expect such a fast response, I am grateful for everyone's help. Hoping for a positive outcome to post here.

 

[Snazzle1088]

I just ran into a slight snag. The manual for the mobo states the system will not boot if only one stick of memory is installed in slots A2 B2 or C2, due to intel CPU specs. Can I simply put one stick in the A1 slot, one by one to test them? Any pointers?

 

[Snazzle1088]

Okay, memory test run: 0 Errors
Norton Completely removed and Microsoft Security Essentials installed (actually, I already had it)
BIOS Updates to the latest version

Computer has been running for about fifteen minutes, waiting to see what happens. Any other pointers?

Edit: How do I remove the ASUS Express Gate? I can't figure that out.

 

[Jonathan_King]

It looks like the Asus Express Gate is a feature built into your motherboard. You cannot uninstall it.

 

[Snazzle1088]

Just wanted to drop a reply in here stating I have been running the PC for about three hours now without any problems (and yes I knocked on wood as well, just to cover all the bases). I want to state my thanks to the people here, it means a lot that you guys took valuable time out of your day to help me, I really appreciate it. Perhaps I can return the favor in some way down the road.

Snazzle1088,

That one word means so much to all the Team Members here at SevenForums.

We enjoy working together to help solve users problems

Hope your Windows 7 experience is a Good One

Sorry for this to all, but my blue screen came up again today, this time it's worse. I reboot, and it loads like it typically does, but instead of going to the login screen, it goes directly to the BSOD. Now, I'm freaked out. I can't even gain access to the minidump file. All I could write down was the following:

Page_Fault_In_Nonpaged_Area

(then it gives the usual directions to correct the issue, such as removing hardware, etc.)

Stop: 0x00000050 (0xFFFFF5000CB0C138, 0x0000000000000001, 0xfffff88001308CFF, 0x0000000000000007)

{Then I saw this at the bottom, so I wanted tho throw it in there}

NTFS.SYS-Address FFFFF88001308CFF base at FFFFF88001241000, Datestamp 4abc14f




So, now I'm officially terrified to touch the thing. Any pointers.
(Sad part is, this happened to my cousin a few weeks ago, and I knocked on wood before I put this thing together hoping it wouldn't happen to me)

 

[Jonathan_King]

Try a hard drive test this time.
