Windows 8 New Mother board - Random BSODs

TacticalQuit · Sep 19, 2014

I posted once before about this issue with an older set of parts. I followed the suggestions in it and after removing norton, the problems went away. I'll post it here in case it helps.

I got a new mobo/proc and now the Bsod demon is back.

New System Specs are:
Z97 Maximus VII Hero
i7 4790k
4x Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz
2x R9 290x gfx card
2x Samsung 840 Pro 128GB on RAID0
1x 3TB HDD

Windows 8.1 update 1

I'm getting random blue screens out of no where. When I got the board, I kept getting SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (ACPI.sys) in a boot loop, but those seem to have gone away. I also now have a DAC attached, but as it uses no drivers I'm not sure if it could be the problem.

Any help would be very much appreciated

Hi...

I decided to read through your thread again as the Event logs weren't helping much and the thought suddenly struck me - when you bought the new parts and fitted them did you do a clean install of windows? Usually it's best to do a clean install whenever fitting something like a new motherboard...

TacticalQuit · Oct 18, 2014

Yes I did.

I havent had any bsods since I took out 2 of the ram sticks, so I'm beginning to think I might actually have been the ram.

When you say the system no longer fast boots, how do you know? Is the check box still ticked in the Power options section of the Control panel?

TacticalQuit · Oct 19, 2014

Well. It seems to have fixed itself. And tbh I was judging it unobjectively. When it fastboots, there is no loading circle after the post and it actually booted much faster.

Sounds good... How is the system generally? No more bsod?

TacticalQuit · Oct 20, 2014

Doesn't seem like it. I think we fixed the problem. Thanks for helping me with this.

Your very welcome.. Post back if need be..

TacticalQuit · Oct 29, 2014

I just want to confirm it was a single faulty memory stick. Since removing it I haven't seen any peculiar behaviour.

Thanks for updating Tactical.. Post back if you should need to and best of luck..
