Hi.

I hope you can help, This BSOD appeared to have started after installing APC software to manage my UPS. I have since uninstalled this software, and have ensured that no services are running.

BSOD Error: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION

I have attached a copy of the minidump.

This is the first time I have attempted to analyse a minidump, and I would attach the symnbols, but the folder is 44.5 meg in size...

I receive the BSOD at what appears random occurances. sometimes the PC will be on for a few days, and no BSOD. Sometimes it will BSOD overnight when not in use (idle), or during the day (idle), or while I am internet browsing, or playing games. reviewing the muiltiple dumps, I receive the same info as below.

I have not yet performed a memtest
chkdsk came back with no errors
sfc /scannow also came back with no errors

According to the bugcheck analysys:

Code:
Probably caused by : win32k.sys ( win32k!NtUserEnumDisplayDevices+8b )
Then when using !analyze -v
Code:
EXCEPTION_CODE: (NTSTATUS) 0xc0000005 - The instruction at 0x%08lx referenced memory at 0x%08lx. The memory could not be %s.
