    Blue Screen Of Death on Power Daw (its getting worse!)

    Hi Scan,

    I purchased a Power Daw last November from Scan. Since I've had it, I get the dreaded blue screen of death. I did create a thread about this about the time I purchased it.
    The blue screens are getting worse, I will get at least one everytime I use the PC.
    I get this stop error:

    0X00000050

    and this:

    S y s t e m R o o t \ s y s t e m 3 2 \ d r i v e r s \ W D F L D R . S Y S % \ S y s t e m R o o t \ s y s t e m 3 2 \ D R I V E R S \ A C P I . s y s ' \ S y s t e m R o o t \ s y s t e m 3 2 \ D R I V E R S \ W M I L I B . S Y S

    I think I might have a faulty ram (6Gb (3x2GB) Corsair XMS3, PC3-10666 (1600)
    )

    I've checked my drivers which I have (E licenser, M audio etc) and they all seem to work fine.

    I've also tried Window 7'S diognostic memory checker and that says the memory is fine but I've heard its not that great. But I think its the Ram, as its happened from like day one of purchase, but its getting worse.
    I haven't taken out the ram to test due to void of warranty.
    Please help!
    regards,
    Michael.

    Mikelo,

    Sorry to hear about your troubles there. You're spot on, the Win7 memory tool can't really be trusted, however if you'd like to download and run this test over night this will assist us greatly in diagnosing your fault;

    http://www.memtest.org/#downiso

    Please complete at least four passes, recommended to let the system run for 16hrs+.

    Let us know how you get on.

    All the best

    Hi Mikelo

    We advise running Memtest overnight and Corsair recommend 10 passes for a complete diagnostic .

    If the Ram is faulty we can arrange a replacement, please email us your Build number to systemsupport@scan.co.uk so we can allocate this fault report to your query

    Regards

    Ben

    Cheers guys! Thank you so much for the quick response!
    I will try the mem test and leave the pc running.
    I'm hoping its just a small problem!
    Can I ask, what else would cause this blue screen situation with this particular stop number?
    Could it be graphics card or a flash drive?
    Cheers,
    Michael.

    Could be faulty memory, bad drivers or maybe even a virus but 9 times out of ten its the memory so as Ben suggested try MEMTEST and let us know.

    Hi Guys,
    thanks for all getting back to me.
    Right, I've run memtest and gave it no less than 13 passes... No errors reported! So it looks like its a driver.
    I'm not internet connected on my 3XS system and any program installed on it (by flash drive) is scanned for viruses before hand.
    Can you please advice me on what shall I try next?
    Thanks,
    Michael.

    Re: Blue Screen Of Death on Power Daw (its getting worse!)

    Hi Mikelo

    As Memtest has passed its more than likely Hard drive or Driver related, can you confirm the build number so I can look into this further for you?

    Either email systemsupport@scan.co.uk or confirm your original Query number for the system

    Regards

    Ben

    Hi Ben email and files sent. I think I tinkered around with the last file I sent you.. Sorry!
    The ones I have sent you were directly copied from my system onto a flash drive and then zipped in Winrar.
    Thanks for your help Ben,
    Michael.

    Hi Mikelo

    Can you confirm the issue has been resolved, Pete mentioned it was possibly a faulty USB flash drive?

    Regards

    Hi Ben,
    sorry for the very late reply!
    Yep, everything seems fine and my 3XS is working just fine! Looks like a faulty flash drive was the problem.
    Thanks for all your help Ben.
    Kind regards
    Michael.
