    BSOD all the time!

    Hi everyone,

    I'm currently having recurring BSOD on my PC. its on for so little time before the pc restarts that i don't even have time to read the first line. I have updated all the driver for all the pieces of hardware, i even bought a new hard drive and copy of windows 7. I have even done a clean install of windows 7, 4 times now, but the problem is still recurrent. I am really at a loss as to what to do next. its getting hugely frustrating and I really don't know what to do now. Any advice?

    Re: BSOD all the time!

    What does the blue screen say? Turn off automatically restart windows:

    In Windows Vista/Windows 7:
    1. Start Menu -> Control Panel
    2. System and Security (Or just "System" in icons mode)
    3. Advanced system settings
    4. Under the Startup and Recovery section, click Settings...
    5. Under System Failure un-check "Automatically restart"
    6. Hit "OK" to save and exit

    Re: BSOD all the time!

    What have you done recently that could be a likely cause? New software/ hardware? what are your temps? virus?

    Re: BSOD all the time!

    Is this an OEM build or self-build?

    If latter, start with obvious stuff by making your CPU heatsink is connected properly. Make sure all wire are connected up securely. Then monitor your temps just to rule them out.

    If you do Kalniel's suggestion, next time it crashes make a note of the error code before you restart it and look it up. May provide some hints..

    I checked all the wires and heatsink and all seems fine.

    I managed to get a quick photo of the screen but i had flash on so alot of it is gone and before i coudl take the flash off the pc restarted itself.

    i can make out this on the photo though:

    Re: BSOD all the time!

    Is it happening during Windows boot, or how long will it run before the BSOD shows, looks like a driver problem you could first try running the system with bare minimum components in it then add one at a time to determine which device is causing the problem

    Re: BSOD all the time!

    Try taking out one stick of ram and seeing if you get the same issue with just one, if you get the same issue, out that one stick into a different slot and try again then repeat for your other stick of ram.

    I'm assuming you only have two sticks of ram, if not test each stick individually and also test the ram slots.

    No, it happens at the most random times. the pc could be idle for like 20 mins or i (assume that amount as i would have left the room) before its goes to BSOD. other times even after 3 or 4 hours on idle it stays fine. sometimes just opening an application can cause it, or thats just coincidence. It really is the most random thing.
