1272016 2012-05-12 21:36:00 Did you install Intel Application Accelerator?? If you did, uninstall it. It looks like this can also cause that 0x00000044 stop errorOnly if Windows 7 installed it automatically. The only things I installed myself after the reinstall was Office 2010 and FF and Chrome. Anything else that's installed came in with Windows 7 or its updates.

1272017 2012-05-12 22:07:00 Well first thing I would do, is put updates on something else besides automatic. Otherwise, Win7 will download anything, and everything Speedy Gonzales (78)
1272018 2012-05-12 22:55:00 Sorry, out of curiousity, have you overclocked any of your hardware? stratex5 (16685)
1272019 2012-05-13 01:25:00 Well first thing I would do, is put updates on something else besides automatic. Otherwise, Win7 will download anything, and everythingOK... I have now removed all my hard drives, all other plugs, sockets, cards, etc. I put in a different HDD which hadn't previously been in this PC, so all in it now was the RAM, new HDD, DVD, keyboard, mouse. Installed Win 7, turned off auto windows update and turned off downloading drivers.
So I had Win 7 running only what it installed, nothing updated. PC locked up after about 30 minutes.

So from that I'd say it's mostly likely a Hardware problem, either mobo, CPU, or RAM. The issue occurs on either RAM stick, so I suspect it's not the RAM (but it might be).

1272021 2012-05-13 04:33:00 Just had an odd BSOD I hadn't seen before - said something like "... tried to release a resource it did not own" (can't remember the first word or two). Dump never completed before system hung, so it isn't in the logs.

EDIT - Might have been "A thread tried to release a resource it did not own"

1272022 2012-05-13 07:28:00 Is SP1 installed? Did you install anything off the ASUS dvd (since its an ASUS mobo)?? Like WinDVD, or Intervideo if its on the dvd?? It looks like this can cause that stop error 0x000000E3 (In vista, but it may also happen in Win7)

Symantec endpoint can also cause that stop error. You didnt install this, did you"?

1272023 2012-05-13 07:50:00 Is SP1 installed?Yes and No :) When the issues started Yes, since I've reinstalled etc. No.

1272024 2012-05-13 08:00:00 I could have a look with teamviewer, if you want. I'll have a look in startup and in event viewer. That last stop error is a driver I think Speedy Gonzales (78)
1272025 2012-05-13 08:18:00 That last stop error is a driver I thinkI suspect any driver issues are due to failling hardware, considering I haven't added any new hardware for a long time (over a year) and have had no problems until a few weeks ago, and now constant trouble since then. Even a fresh install with no new drivers added I still get the same issues. Safe mode too. The BSODs don't happen often - most of the time the PC just locks up and has to be restarted. Just need to figure out what hardware is failing so I can replace (although I suspect its mobo/cpu now and will need pretty much a new setup seeing as these are a couple years old now)
