New h/d new w7 install
updated every driver I could . took out the old drives that required a seperate card driver that run before bootup on the old drive
and still it crashes
almost every time w7 updates it either crashes in going back to safe mode .
or it somhow looses the main files to boot , then its going into the bios and selecting the correct drive again as the boot drive
or I am in the middle of a program and the blue screen of death

Solution
All the drivers are in great shape, which unfortunately means that there is a RAM defect.
You can test with Memtest86+ overnight to see if it shows any errors. If so, replace the RAM modules.
Sometimes you have to test each stick at a time to get errors to show, while removing all other sticks.
My guess is that if you just run Memtest86+, errors will show fairly early. Overnight test is best though.

One thing you should really do in Windows though is to type services.msc in the start menu then press enter. Disable the NVIDIA Stereoscopic 3D service, since its process is shown in the crash.
If you actually have the 3D glasses, then leave the service alone.

Let's see what's going on with your motherboard and find out if the file is for it.
It wouldn't reinstall if it was for that add-on card which was removed.
Type msinfo32 in the start menu then press enter. File | save on the opened screen. Zip the saved file then attach to a post.

After typing msinfo32 in the start menu and hitting enter, a screen will open. You want to go to File then Save. Zip the .nfo file only and then attach the .zip.
The previous attachment doesn't have this at all.

Anyhow, let MSI's website scan and install any new drivers it finds.
Did it update any at all?

Did you test the ram sticks individually as my previous post said to do?

You do have some sort of bad ram even if the test shows well. Replace the Ram.
All of your drivers are now good, which makes it 99.9% probability the new ram will be the fix.

not finsih yet took out one stick of ram that showed 2 faults but the old problem stiill is a pain in the *** mostly happens when w7 finishes the updates
when its stared again the next day this hapens
either it starts in safe mode and without the video driver
or it comes up with the words that state the wrong drive no boot file
so in that case it go into the bios and select the correct boot drive again
hope that helps
I asked about this way back but no reponse to it
