1187124 2011-03-27 21:10:00 Try a Linux CD?

That could be a good way to test drivers without reinstalling

well thankyou, but I'd still be left with no Idea of the cause other than "something to do with windows" I really want to resolve this in windows if at all possible.

The biggest problem is it takes so long to test every time I try something, I need 24 hours crash free before I will start to think it's fixed.

Currently it's idling with onboard sound disabled, unless it crashes in the mean time there's a day gone while I wait :(

1187126 2011-03-28 01:13:00 Yeah unfortunately troubleshooting problems like this just plain sucks, but it's the only way... Agent_24 (57)
1187127 2011-03-28 01:59:00 Did you run that burnin test I suggested in my previous Post ?

That program makes the whole computer and all its components work at once under a load. Sometimes I have actually had components fail (Bad RAM or graphic Card) when testing it found the problem though :D

1187128 2011-03-28 02:20:00 haven't had a chance yet, will run it tonight. I also found a forum post where several people describe identical symptoms cause by MSSE so I may try a different antivirus as well. dugimodo (138)
1187129 2011-03-28 02:26:00 Is Easytune on this?? If it is remove it, it can cause that 0x0000001e stop error on gigabyte mobos Speedy Gonzales (78)
1187130 2011-03-28 07:00:00 Is or was Easytune installed? Speedy Gonzales (78)
1187131 2011-03-28 17:26:00 easytune was installed one time of the many installs, it isn't this time.
Burn in test passed several runs.
disabling onboard sound didn't work.
removing msse didn't work.
running in safe mode 9 hours and counting, if it stays up I'm running out of Ideas.

network drivers ?
RAM even though it passed memtest?
PSU even though I don't think it's faulty ?

Ideas ?

1187132 2011-03-28 21:10:00 Have you confirm the Memory is on the compatiblilty guide yet!.....what size are the modules?, install and setup with only 2GB, are all the slots full when all ram installed.....is the system crashing or locking up?....crashing with BSOD is driver related, lock up and freezing memory related!

Not always.

Got a PC here at the moment, lockes up every 5-10 minutes, it has buggered SATA ports on the board, the drive loses contact and the whole thing locks up solid - nothing to do with memory.

If I put the HDD on a workshop PC it runs fine,(has the same Gigabyte board G31) cloned the drive to a IDE, and that runs fine on the customers board.

A BSOD is caused by one of two things - Drivers or hardware faults - its a matter of finding which is causing the problem.
