SOLVED: Recurring BSOD, zip file attached First the good news: The computer has been completely stable with no BSODs for the last week. Feels like the problem is solved. The embarrasing news: A day after the last post about the PSU and graphics card I had CPU-Z open to look for specs. By...

Thanks for the link, and info! I've just assumed that 550W is good enough on a quality PSU and never thought about that the amperage could differ so much. The GPU is a Radeon HD 6850 and need 500W/30A according to the list. When I look at the specs of the PSU it seems it has four +12V-rails...

Hi, and thanks for your reply! I have filled in most of the specs now. The PSU is a Fractal Design Tesla 550W, Tesla 550W, 80 PLUS - Fractal Design I reckon 550W should be enough for my system? You might be on to something anyhow. I live in a rural area, with not the highest quality of the...

Thanks for hanging in there! I've followed the instructions on the provided link, will report back in a couple of days. Thanks again! Edit: Forgot to mention, there were no more bluescreens after the two with 5 minutes in between. Whatever that means... :confused:

Been good for three days, and suddenly two BSODs with only 5 minutes or so in between. Attaching dump files. If the pattern is like previous time I will have a blue screen in half an hour. Will run another virus and malware scan. If nothing comes up maybe it's time to do a clean install? If...

Hi again, and thanks for looking at the latest dumps! I haven't overclocked as far as I know. Have loaded "optimized defaults" (as ASUS calls it) now in Bios, which I guess should be OK? Also, as I was in the BIOS I noticed I had put my HD and DVD on slot 1, 3 and 5, rearranged it to 1, 2 and...

For some reason it just took an hour for the next BSOD. Feels like a hardware issue more and more... Attaching the latest minidump and the last part of the app-log. SQL-server was active just before the crash again, maybe should try deactivating all SQL-server services and see what happens?

As one could fear I spoke too soon. :( Got another BSOD today, ntoskrnl.exe again. This time while working via Remote Desktop. Zip-file attached with the latest minidump and logs etc. I looked in the app log and noticed that there's something going on with SQL-server before many of the BSODs...

Thanks for crossing your fingers! And more importantly finding the probable cause of my recent blue screens. Haven't had one since doing the recent update of the BIOS. I reckon I will enable the hard drive power management again to prolong the life of my regular drives. If the problem returns I...

Thanks for your reply and suggestions! I have installed the latest BIOS and chipset drivers from ASUS webpage now. Updated the soundcard with drivers for Realtek HD Audio from Realteks web site. Can't find any other components with updates, so hopefully the problem is solved now. I also...

The computer have actually stayed fine for 4 days now, since uninstalling Daemon Tools and Comodo, fixing the device manager and updating all drivers (I think..). Haven't been on as much though. Today I got another bluescreen, but with a new .dll failing - ntoskrnl.exe Please find attached...

Have been getting BSODs more and more frequently over the last week. Can't think of anything special that triggered the behaviour though. It mostly happens when the computer idles and I'm doing other stuff, and doesn't seem to relate to computer load etc. Did a bit of digging myself and used...
