Solved random BSODs

[AkkeDaBest]

Yo what's up guys?

So I have been having these nasty BSODs lately, 3 of them yesterday. I tried to debug them but it didnt tell me anything useful. Might be my TerraTec Cinergy tuner cards tho. But I'd be glad if you experts would take a look also

I attached all 3 minidumps

Thanks,

Akke

Hi there,

Seems like all the three dump are pointing to Ks.sys which is a Windows Kernel File which may not be the problem. I would recommend to run few tests.

Apply this update "Stop 0x0000007E" or "Stop 0x00000050" Stop error message in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2

Regarding the ASACPI.sys go to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers and rename ASACPI.sys to ASACPI.old. (OR) Apply the update from here

Thank you for the fast reply!

I am unable to do those things today but I will try tomorrow. (14h)

One thing - When I tried debugging, it did tell me about ks.sys but I thought that it couldn't be it because that was a part of windows. And I thought it told me it was ks.sys because in the beginning it told me "Your debugger is not using the correct symbols". How do I get the correct symbols? I am using the microsoft server as my symbol source right now.

Thanks,

Akke

 

[Maguscreed]

are you sure the symbol paths are saved in the debugger?
You need to save your workspace after setting it.
When you first put in
SRV*c:\websymbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

It should pause or say "busy" in the task for a bit while it downloads the symbols. I believe the base pack is something in the 88meg neighborhood.

Thank you guys!

The computer has mystically stopped BSODing, might be because I switched to DVBViewer instead of WMC for TV?

I did not apply any of he patches, but that seems to be okay since the problem seems to have gone away.

Anyways, thanks!
