Hi,

I have been having a lot of blue screens for the past few weeks. I have tried running a disk check and memcheck and those didn't find any problems. I just did a fresh install of windows 7 64 bit and have been having the same problems. Any help is much appreciated. Link Removed

Looks like it.
Try running Memtest on each RAM stick (leave one in, test it, if it's good, keep it, if it's bad, chuck it, repeat) and see which one's are wrong (by the looks of the pic, you probably have to replace them all).
Please provide these reports: Link Removed

No memory dump files are included in your upload. The minidump.txt file is not useful for us as we have different commands that we run in the debugger.

Lot's of these errors in the minidump.txt file

You have a
BUFFALO WLI-UC-GNM Wireless LAN Adapter
Win7 doesn't like these devices, here's my rant on them:
I do not recommend using wireless USB devices. Especially in Win7 systems.
These wireless USB devices have many issues with Win7 - and using Vista drivers with them is almost sure to cause a BSOD.
Should you want to keep using these devices, be sure to have Win7 drivers - DO NOT use Vista drivers!!!
An installable wireless PCI/PCIe card that's plugged into your motherboard is much more robust, reliable, and powerful.
I also recall some issues with support for the Buffalo devices a while back - please be sure to check on updates for this device if you choose to continue using it.

These devices are not installed, please install them with the latest Win7 compatible driver package:
SM Bus Controller PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E22&SUBSYS_50011458&REV_04\3&11583659&0&FB The drivers for this device are not installed.
Ethernet Controller PCI\VEN_1969&DEV_1083&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_C0\4&841E55&0&00E6 The drivers for this device are not installed.
SM Bus Controller is most often included in the chipset drivers. If that doesn't fix it, then install all other Intel drivers offered at the PC Manufacturer's website


 


Thank you for your response,

I think I will ditch the wireless adapter and try a PCI card as you suggest.
 


I have removed the wireless adapter and am using a wired connection now. I did a clean install of windows and have had another blue screen. Here is the minidump.Link Removed

(notice how the ExceptionAddress and rip [both highlighted in red] have the same code - that means that whatever it's pointing to is the root of the problem)

NETIO.sys (and related driver names) are to do with your internet adapters/drivers/cards.

Looking at previous posts, it appears as though you've removed the wireless adapter and are currently using a wired connection.
Two questions come into my mind:
-Did you fully uninstall the wireless adapter (files, drivers, software etc.)
-Did you properly install the wired connection (modem driver/configuration {if you use one} etc.)

I must say, good job on keeping most of your drivers up to date, so thats a +1 from me.

that driver (which was also highlighted red in the box above) is the Atheros NIC driver (which is used for WiFi). The analysis that I showed you in the opening sentence, "NETIO.sys (and related drivers)", was an internet driver/software/adapter issue, and so this makes me think that you haven't properly uninstalled your previous wireless adapter.

What I suggest - FULLY uninstall ALL network drivers and devices (through Control Panel), then retest the issue.
 


Just my 2¢

Due to the reinstall of Windows, I'd have to wonder if this is a hardware problem.
Please run the free diagnostics listed here: Link Removed - Invalid URL
 


Thanks for the help guys. I couldn't find any trace of the old network adpaters and I formatted the disk so that should get rid of them? I did find an update for an SM bus but I got another crash last night.Link Removed

I am in the process of trying out the diagnostic tools.
 


It looks like a system driver... perhaps try reinstalling Windows if the Diagnostic Tools don't work?

I just ran the memtest86+ and it found some errors. I have attached a picture of it because I don't know if it is possible to record it. Does this mean that the RAM is toast?Link Removed

It's also possible that there is a problem with the slots in the motherboard.
So, if all of the sticks test bad in one slot, try them individually in the other slots.

Don't forget to use anti-static precautions when messing around inside the case (remove all power and ground yourself)

Good luck!
