Hello again JT, and thank you for providing us useful information!
There's a few different things to look at here. There's not too many 3rd party drivers to look at. You also had your Graphic Driver blamed, but I'll get to it.

BSOD Analyse

:info: Graphic driver

The tutorial below guarantees a clean install, with no left-over files. Left-over files can be a bit of a mystery, therefore we want to get rid of those.

i) Make your way to ATI Drivers - Downloads
ii) Uninstall the Graphic driver you currently have and all its extensions (do not reboot yet)
iii) Download Driver Sweeper
iv) Get to safe mode (without network) and search for Driver Sweeper in your rb:
v) Select all the ATI components and analyse them
vi) Clean them, head into Windows without internet and download the drive

• Stop any type of overclocking.
• Blow the Graphic Card fans.
• Make sure that no hidden overclocking feature is on.
• Download Speccy and make sure that temperatures are stable.
• Make sure that the games you're playing has the latest updates and look for Q&A's, fixes and compatibilities.

:info: Memory

Looking at your bugcheck it's likely that a memory corruption event was triggered. Though a driver could be causing the memory to be borked, but we're usually suggesting a memory test before moving forward. Do a scan with Memtest86+. Memtest is a scanner that'll check your sticks for errors.

   Warning

Note that the below instructions may break your WARRANTY rules. If you're unsure check manuals, separated warranty papers, stickers on computer for secure permission.

To ensure that we'll know if it's the slots on the motherboard that's broken, or the sticks itself - we have a little procedure we'll recommend. Remove 1 stick, scan the other with Memtest in the current slot. After 7 passes, move the stick to another slot and scan, and so on and so forth until you've scanned all the sticks, and all the slots, one by one.

Norton

Your Norton anti-virus has some problems by the looks of it. If you're a subscriber of the Norton anti-virus software and is planning to keep it, I'd recommend contacting their Costumer Service in order to fix this issue. Though -

   Warning

Make sure your Norton is up-to-date, it's common that parts of the software, is not working as it should with Windows. Norton is releasing updates and fixes to their software, therefor- it's important to let it install updates automatically.

• If you're a free user of Norton, I'd recommend the known and stable anti-virus software, MSSE - Microsoft's solution to security. Remember to use the Norton Uninstaller Utility if you desire to uninstall it.

I ran Memtest a few days back over night and everything was ok, ive done the graphics as instructed and updated norton through its updater, there were 3 updates.

The first two in this list the link to the update has a 404 error so im not able to do these. The 2nd two confuse me because i have no idea why they have anything to do with Intel as i dont have anything to do with Intel in my machine.


Driver Reference Table - sisraid4.sys
Driver Reference Table - SiSRaid2.sys
Driver Reference Table - lsi_fc.sys
Driver Reference Table - iirsp.sys

Confusing, untill you suggest what to do next if anything, ill see how it goes and if it happens again ill do a memtest over night, if you reply before a BSOD then ill follow your instructions again.

Appreciate the help you have all ready provided, love the effort thank you

Hello again,

You can forget those Intel drivers for now, let's run Driver Verifier.

Using Driver Verifier is an iffy proposition. Most times it'll crash and it'll tell you what the driver is. But sometimes it'll crash and won't tell you the driver. Other times it'll crash before you can log in to Windows. If you can't get to Safe Mode, then you'll have to resort to offline editing of the registry to disable Driver Verifier.

So, I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff 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).

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 "IRP Logging", "Force Pending I/O Requests" and "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next" ("Special Pool" may be able to be used depending on amount of RAM and errors being seen. In situations with small amounts of RAM, DO NOT select it),
- 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).

Reboot into Windows (after the crash) and locate the memory dump file. If present, turn off Driver Verifier by going back in and selecting "Delete existing settings" on the first page. Then, zip up the memory dump file(s) and upload them with your next post. If no dump files were generated, post back for further suggestions.

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.

If that doesn't work, post back and we'll have to see about fixing the registry entry off-line:

Delete these registry keys to stop Driver Verifier from loading (works in XP, Vista, Win7):
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\VerifyDrivers
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\VerifyDriverLevel

Best Regards,
Frederik.

When it boots up it just freezes with no BSOD.

Fun fun fun. My PS3 just crashed, maybe its just me. lol

*EDIT*

I've created this, via Safe Mode.

Are you able to go back to an earlier access point using a Recovery Disc?
Try switching the RAM sticks to another slot.
Did it began to freeze after you enabled the verifier?

 

[JTBomb007]

I only created a restore point within windows. So i imagine if i stopped the verifier in Safe Mode i could then go to my restore point after.

Although im not quite sure why we need to restore.

Ill turn off now, switch my RAM to other slots (pretty sure they have to be in the slots they are in now, maybe i put them back in wrong).

And yes, this crashing started after i put the verifier on, and happens as soon as i log in.

Be back soon xD (hopefully)

 

[FredeGail]

Alrighty, I'd suggest you to go into safe mode again then - and disable the verifier. You obviously have a way too many errors that it can't even make a proper crash.

Go disable it for now, and see if you can produce a proper BSOD. I know this is crazy, but we can't really go further until I'll have one.

Though, I'm here tomorrow also. If it's late at your place take a break and maybe a rest.

After rebooting out of Safe Mode, i've not been able to get past my BIOS, and on the odd occasion that i do, i get greeted with 'DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER'.

Consider doing a Villain Windows Installation, an installation of Windows without additional software, drivers, games, or anything else. Your Windows sounds broken, and it's like beating a dead horse to recover it.

Frederik.

 

[JTBomb007]

Im unable to do anything, when booting from my windows disk, ive tried to select both repair & install but i just get a freeze.

When i was last in Safe Mode i didnt turn off that 'Verifier' as i wasn't sure you wanted me to do it yet as you had not replied.

I think this is stopping me from reinstalling windows, is there any way of getting that to stop stressing my drivers out without getting into windows, as that is not gunna happen in our life time....xD

 

[FredeGail]

Hello JT.

Is it only when your system tries to boot into Windows? BIOS and the interface works just fine? You can try downloading a copy of Ubuntu and see if the system will crash there.
If the case is that the BIOS interface is working, you can basically just boot from a Windows
Recovery disc.

Best Regards,
Frederik

 

[JTBomb007]

If i have my windows disk in, i get past BIOS but crash when i try to either repair or install windows.

If i have no disk in i freeze at BIOS. (Cant even enter SETUP)

0_o

 

[JTBomb007]

I finally managed to get into windows after shutting verifier down through command prompt, after the restart i logged in, it then said installing device driver software and just froze instantly, the window is open so its pretty tempting..

 

[JTBomb007]

Ok i can get into windows, but something is instantly killing it, i can get into safe mode, ill jump on that and wait for a reply for what to do next, maybe a fresh format now will be your suggestion, as i think it will work now.

But yea, ill wait for a reply first.

*EDIT*

Thought i would just edit as i seem to be spamming alot of posts.

I'm in, without a crash on start up, while i was in Safe Mode i had a look at it seems that verifier was still going thats why i was crashing on start up, so we are back to square one, not knowing what is causing my BSOD.

I imagine you will suggest to carry on using my system untill i get another BSOD and to report back here with details once that happens?

Hello John.

First a few questions I want to get clear on. For your current situation..

• You can navigate in Safe Mode?
• Your verifier is currently disabled?
• You're not able too boot from Recovery Discs?

Try to boot the Windows Defender Offline utility. There's more information in the link below..
.. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/166445-windows-defender-offline.html

• Did your computer freeze in the middle of the installation of Windows, or just simply running the disc' interface?

Best Regards,
Frederik.

 

[JTBomb007]

Well i seem to be ok atm i can boot straight into windows with no crash, and ive not come across a blue screen yet. So i guess the graphics and norton updates done the trick...

When were you able to handle those?
Best of luck!
