Randomly occuring BSODs, probably caused by drivers

[Laith]

Look up the USB drivers for your motherboard.

It's embarassing but it seems the ASUS website does not have any usb drivers available for my card: P7P55D.

Edit: Drivers have been successfully installed. I'll get back to you if I get another crash.

One curious thing to note is that I might NOT have actually had the appropriate USB drivers. There is a "new" controller in the device manager now that I did not have before.

Alas the driver update did not prevent bluescreens. I just got another one today:

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Note that the attached dump data contains all crashes in the history of this machine, not just the latest one.

 

[KGS]

Yet another bluescreen. Same message as the one above. I did not attach another analysis dump. Tell me if you want me to.

 

[KGS]

Just had yet another BSOD. This time it was KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

 

[Laith]

Please post the latest logs.

Run Furmark, if the temps goes too high stop the test. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100356-video-card-stress-test-furmark.html

Temperature flattens out at 81 degrees. I did not observe any artifacts.

It seems your installation is counterfeit.

You are running an Acer Product ID (PID) on an ASUS board.
This makes your installation counterfeit.
Troubleshooting a counterfeit installation is useless as it is not known what has been modified to your system.
A counterfeit installation contains heavily modified code which causes the system to behave in unexpected ways.
For this reason, analyzing counterfeit systems is unreliable and most analysts won't try it.

I recommend to install a genuine copy of Windows.

Ok.

Question: I have access to a legit download (free) of windows through my university. Is software installed on one harddrive transferable to another installation of windows? I have some software which requires a lot of work to install (heavily plugin-dependent) and I'm thinking of simply getting a new harddrive, installing windows on it and then copying the software over from my old drive.

Is this possible to do or will stuff just plain break if I try it?

You can copy/paste the files you need, but there are register stuff that are required too which is harder to 'copy/paste' as in most cases you don't know which register key you need and 1 missing key could break the software. It could be a great risk, most of the times it is faster to just install it again instead of copy/paste it.
