Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

[Guest monkeytuesday]

Hello everybody,

 

Im running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit on a system built last year,

Intel Core 2 Duo E6550, MSI P6N SLI-FI nForce650i SLI, 2GB RAM and ATI Radeon

1950XT.

 

Since 2-3 months back i get a bluescreen about one a day, and for all

different reasons. They seem to come at random, often when the computer is

idle (usually with Firefox running), and occationally when i click something

on the screen. The computer always does a memory dump and then reboots. The

crash reporting thingy never finds any answer.

 

crashcodes Ive noted:

BUGCODE_USB_DRIVER

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION

APC_INDEX_MISMATCH

MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

 

and a few more.

Files that have been concerned:

netio.sys

dxgkrnl.sys

win32k.sys

numfdx64.sys

atikmdag.sys

 

and probably some more.

 

Troubleshooting ive done is an extensive RAM error check, Windows repair (no

errors found), scandisk, viruscheck (AVG), disable virus program for a while.

 

Question: does anyone recognize this? What is the next step in

troubleshooting?

 

Thanks

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Based on my experience, the mostly likely suspects are

either the system memory or the hard drive. I suspect

you're getting random errors due to file corruption. Not

that the files them selves are corrupted, but errors reading

from the hard drive or random errors in memory would cause

the files to appear corrupted to the OS.

 

The first thing you can do is download a memory testing

program and test your memory.

 

I guess the next step would be a diagnostic of the hard drive.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

One thing that I know of that can cause your symptoms is that your bios may

not be set up correctly for your particular memory. Make sure the RAS

settings (something like 5-5-5-15) and voltage are set correctly in your

bios for the particular memory that you have. If those things are set to

auto in your bios, find out what the correct settings are, change the bios

from auto to manual and put the proper settings in.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Yeah, that was my first guess, so i ran the RAM error check available through

microsoft and scandisc. No errors found...

RE: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Hi,

The usual recommendations.

1.- Check your BIOS and verify that you don't have any overclocking (memory

timings, front side bus clock, etc.)

2.- Check your fans and remove any dust. A vacuum cleaner might come handy.

3.- Unplug and plug again all your connectors (IDE, SATA, power, etc.)

4.- Reseat your video card and memories.

5.- Run an extensive memory check by using memtest86 (http://www.memtest.org/)

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Hi, monkeytuesday.

 

My guess is that all the software testing in the world won't fix or even

find your problem. When the BSOD codes are seemingly random, you have a

hardware problem, not software.

 

The list Carlos gave is pretty good, but I would start with #3 and #4:

Check all the cables and connections, including video and other cards

plugged into mobo slots.

 

Another likely suspect is heat buildup. Did the computer environment change

"Since 2-3 months back "? Depending on where (in the world you live), that

might have been the start of Winter, and you may have an overachieving

furnace in your home. Do you have a way to determine the temperatures of

your CPU and computer case? Carlos' #2 (dust on the fans and in the case)

could contribute to heat problems, too.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Yeah, thats a good point. Im thinking though that if it would be heat, the

system would crash when i run a game (video card overheat) or anything

CPU-intense. Wierdly, the only time it never crashes is when i run any 3D

engine game! besides, my indoor climate or any factor i can think of

affecting heat is the same as before...

 

So far ive done like Ken Triebold sais and changed the memory latency and

voltage from AUTO to what the manufacturer specified (5-5-5-18). If it

crashes again, ill start taking the computer apart.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Blowing the dust from inside the case, particularly the heat sink for the

cpu and memory should be done periodically depending on the environment.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

I was having the same problem, and the recommendation was to change the case.

I was hesitant, but decided to try it, so I bought a case that could be

returned. (just in case). Since the day I replaced the case, I haven't had a

single shutdown. I would seriously consider this suggestion, since I was

getting the same "Randomness when my PC would shut down.

Re: Bluescreens for all different reasons on 64-bit system

 

Good point, John. I have never had a problem with a

computer overheating, so I tend to forget about it.

Seems like changing RAM latency did the trick. I havnt had any crashes so

far. Thanks!
