  1. Rampant BSOD caused by mysterious failing driver


    Hello,I recently built my own PC half a year ago, and this pc has been having 0-4 BSOD of varying types. I ran driver verifier and got out of the BSOD loop with a .dmp that hopefully holds the key to my mystery.Who do I contact to have this file looked into?Thanks in advance

    :)

    BSOD Hardware Caused???

    they do weird things like that, which all seem like something else is failing.
    One of the worst things to diagnose, they seem to only quit when they want to.

    Memtest is a good next step, if you rule out RAM and Power Supply make sure you disconnect all unnecessary peripherals and try to start the system with as little hardware as possible, if it works then, you can narrow down the culprit by trial and error.

    the follow was taken from some website:

    It's very difficult to determine if a failure is caused by the CPU because many other components can cause the same symptom when they fail.

    1. System fails to boot
    2. System re-boots intermittently
    3. General Protection Fault
    4. Illegal Operation
    5. Stop Error, or BSoD (Blue Screen OfDeath)

    Actually, CPUs rarely fail, and about the only way to determine if the CPU is causing the failure is to swap it out with a known working CPU of the same type and speed. Since this is difficult, the best bet is to first rule out every other possibility.

    Before suspecting the CPU, rule out all the possibilities listed below.

    1. The Operating System
    2. A peripheral port device
    3. A bad memory module
    4. The hard disk drive
    5. The power supply
    6. The motherboard

    If you have ruled out out all the other possibilities, investigate the items listed below.

    1. Overheating
    2. A short circuit
    3. ESD

  3. GTA IV and the dreaded BSOD

    One (or more) of the cores in the CPU could be failing. Games can't ever cause a BSOD unless they are dabbling in affairs that they shouldn't be (namely hardware configuration without interfacing via the drivers).


    Does the BSOD list a faulting module (e.g. mom.exe, nv4_disp.dll, ccc.exe, etc.)?

    BSOD Hardware Caused???

    It is not overheating - CPU runs 60*C in games.
    Short Circuit - EXTREAMLY UNLIKELY
