Several BSOD each day. stop 0x0000007c

Several BSOD each day with different BSOD codes.

Hello,

My PC recieves several BSOD each day, some of the error messages are as following "Stop 0x0000007C, 0x0000007E, 0x0000000A, 0x0000007F, 0x0000001A, 0x000000D1". Sometimes it's not even a BSOD, sometimes it's just a freeze and you can hear a static noise coming from the speakers.

I've run Memtest86 before, let it run over the night to 10 without any problems and error messages. I've run Furmark for 30 min, where the temp got up to 82 and stayed there. A crash did occur the first time after 20 min where the screen just turned black. I redid the test and nothing happened for 30 min.

I have updated all my drivers to latest version.

A few weeks ago I took my PC to a repair shop, they had it for 3 weeks and did all sorts of tests on it but couldn't get it to blue screen a single time (where before it had done it several times per day). Once I got it home, it worked without any issues for about 4 weeks before the crashes and freezing started again.

I recently purchased an SSD and made a complete new installation of the OS (Windows 7 Pro) but the chrashes and freezes continue. It does not happen during a specific moment, I've gotten one when I was browsing the web or I've been playing a game. Sometimes it can take several hours before anything happen and when it do, there can be 2-6 happening after each other within a span of seconds. Sometimes I can't even start the computer properly before I get a BSOD.

Hello Jakle001.

Could you pretty please run this:

[Jakle001]

Do you mean the DM collector?

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

I've just looked through the dump files and I would recommend that you run memtest86+ for at least 8 passes!

Also there seems to be an issue with nvlddmkm.sys which is a NVIDIA driver so please install the graphics card drivers!
Drivers | GeForce

You can use Revo Uninstaller to remove old drivers and unused files!

Cheers, Boris

 

[Jakle001]

I will try to do them. The problem is that I've run memtest86+ before for 10 passes, no errors. I've tried to installing old drivers of my nVidia card and back to new ones, follwing a guide here; didn't help, the issue was still there.

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

How did you install the drivers for your card?

There is a way that is quite solid, first you uninstall everything from nvidia and then you restart and after that you install fresh drivers from nvidia.

Hmm, interesting very interesting. I'll have to think a bit.

 

[Jakle001]

Feel free to ask if you want to know anything more specific.

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

There is a BIOS update that might fix your problem but I'm not sure.

Here is the download page:
ASRock > 770 Extreme3

And here is a how-to update it:
ASRock - BIOS Upgrade Instruction

I have now updated my BIOS. Once I had finished it and had to do a restart because it HDD required a restart after the drivers had been installet. I got an error message saying oawrapper.exe had stopped working.

I decided to attach my old HDD dmp files as well.

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

Hello again.

OAWrapper.exe is part of NVIDIA GeForce Experience Application Ontology and developed by NVIDIA Corporation according to the OAWrapper.exe version information. OAWrapper.exe's description is "OpenAutomate wrapper" OAWrapper.exe is digitally signed by NVIDIA Corporation.

Please reinstall GeForce Experience!

Cheers, Boris

 

[Jakle001]

I've now done that as well. I've also edited my last reply and added new dmp files from the dm collector. They are from my old HDD. I don't know if they add something or if they are just the same information.

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

Hmm right well I'll have to sleep now so hopefully someone else will hop on here to help you!

 

[Jakle001]

Thanks for the help so far, I really appreciate it!

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

Yeah there is still one thing that we might try. It is to enable something called Driver Verifier, you can enable it like this:

Start > type verifier in the Search programs and files box and press "Enter" > Create standard settings > Next > Select driver names from a list > then select all non-Microsoft drivers > Finish

Restart the computer.

Continue to use the computer normally but if you experience any BSODs make available the minidump files.

Information: Driver Verifier will stress test third party drivers that might have caused your BSODs because there wasn't that much information in the dump files!

Cheers, Boris

 

[Jakle001]

So, my pc crahsed 3 times now, within a span of 2 minutes. The first two times, everything just froze, no BSOD. The third time, my PC restarted itself, but didn't continue past the part where you can select different options using the "F" buttons. I didn't have the time to do what you told me to, but I will now (if I'm able to).

 

[BorisTheAnimal]

Hello Jakle.

I also think it may be wise to see if there are chipset drivers available and since I don't know if ASRock is that good with keeping drivers and such up to date, could you please visit AMD and select the autodetect option:
Download Drivers

Cheers, Boris

 

[Jakle001]

I got the message "We were unable to find a driver for your system.

Huh interesting you do have an AMD cpu so should have chipset for it. Odd.
