Random BSOD and freezes while using computer-driver_irql,memory_manage

[karanrawat21]

No it doesnt have warranty as a whole. I got it assembled, and the seperate parts have got warranty.

 

[karanrawat21]

Theres no wrranty for the computer as a whole and oh one more piece of info my computer also crashes while i used to install windows strange........

 

[karanrawat21]

Why does my computer never crash,freeze or BSOD in safe mode.

 

[JMH]

What is safe mode?

Safe mode is a troubleshooting option for Windows that starts your computer in a limited state. Only the basic files and drivers necessary to run Windows are started. The words Safe Mode appear in the corners of your monitor to identify which Windows mode you're using.

If an existing problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device drivers as possible causes. If you don't know the cause of the problem, you can use the process of elimination to help you find the problem. Try starting all of the programs you commonly use, including the programs in your Startup folder, one by one to see if a program might be the cause of the problem.

Just stepping in to save some time.


If it doesnt crash in safe mode it is because whatever driver causing it to crash isnt loaded.

It tells you nothing and you cant stay in safe mode.


To find out which driver it is you should run this test. Please read the instructions carefully.



Driver verifier

I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Win7 Startup Repair feature).

In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

Then, here's the procedure:
- Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
- Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
- Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
- Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
- Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
- Select "Finish" on the next page.

Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

I already tried driver verifier and my computer still BSOD'd guys so what shud i do ??

 

[zigzag3143]

Driver verifier needs to be run for at least 36 hours so you couldnt possibly have done it.

When you enable it please type verifier /query and tell us what drivers are being verified. Please make a snapshot of that screen and upload it to us here.


We wait with baited breath for it.

 

[karanrawat21]

OK Zigzag im on it,ill see what driver Verifier says after i log in back into Windows normally.Im in safe mode right now as i have to copy files onto my hard drive.Doing so normally crashes my computer.
Anyways im getting new RAM (dont know how to RMA).

 

[karanrawat21]

Here is the Verifier /query results please decipher them.

 

[karanrawat21]

My PC never freezes or BSOD's when MW2 MP is running in the background i wonder y????

The snips show verifier is working and whatever is causing the crashes hasnt happened yet. Just keep running it and do what you normally do.

 

[karanrawat21]

Could it be my wireless USB Mouse and Keyboard(Logitech K260)?My computer has problems booting when my external HDD is connected to it too.
Is it a RAM problem??Please see my minidump files u havent analysed them yet i guess.

It could be anything and the most recent dmp file you submitted is over six days old if you are still having them we need the newer ones.

 

[karanrawat21]

Here are the latest dump files please analyse friends.

 

[karanrawat21]

Mr Zigzag one more thing i disabled all the services using Msconfig and just enabled those which were essential such as:
Windows Audio
Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
Power
DHCP Client
DNS Client
Network Connections
Network List Service
Network Location Awareness
Network Store Interface Service
Themes
Desktop Window Manager Session
Multimedia Class Scheduler
And guess what NO BSOD SINCE.Pls tell me what i did right.

Here are the latest dump files please analyse friends.

These crashes were caused by memory corruption (probably a driver). Please run these two tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.

If you are overclocking anything reset to default before running these tests.
In other words STOP!!!


1-Memtest.

*Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program. Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool

*Boot from the CD, and leave it running for at least 5 or 6 passes.

Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot.

Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.

Any errors are indicative of a memory problem.

If a known good stick fails in a motherboard slot it is probably the slot.

Zigzag im 99% sure its RAM corruption but i wonder whether RAM could get corrupted by not shutting down properly because i dont have any backup if the lights go out nor do i have any voltage stabilization.in this part of the world except frequent power shortages and cuts.
So is it possible that it could be corrupted RAM caused by power outages.Please recommend me a compatible RAM.My current RAM is Corsair 4gb VX class 1stick.

It may in fact be ram. Memtest is the only way to know for sure. Consult your owners manual (since you didnt tell us what mfr it is) for the type of ram you need.
