Hey everyone,
For the last three days, everyday, I've encountered a BSOD. I'm not quite sure what the causes are but I've narrowed it down to one of two things. A hardware malfunction (I'm just guessing) or an application has been installed that should not.
On 8/24, my computer installed a couple of updates. These are listed below:
-Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 x86 Redistributable (app reconfig)
-NVIDIA PhysX (app installed)
-USB Compositive Device (driver installed)
-USB Input Device (driver installed)
-HID-compliant consumer control Device (driver installed)
-USB Audio Device (driver installed)
I was prompted to restart my computer and the updates installed. Two days later on 8/26, my computer had it's first BSOD. Since then I have continued to experience BSODs everyday.
The biggest reason I've suspected that one of the applications above should now have been installed is because I don't have an NVIDIA graphics card. I have a Radeon HD7870. Although, I'm not sure if this NVIDIA application is used for other uses.
hardware spec info:
-8gb ram (I recently just replaced a stick of ram that had been failing and I suspect the new stick could possible be failing...?)
-Radeon HD7870
-ASRock Z68 Extrem3 Gen3
If any needs more spec info, I can provide it just ask.
As for dump info, I'm not sure how to upload files of it. I have the documented reports on my Windows "Reliability Monitor" Application so here is the info I can provide from the "description" info. This was from the first dump on 8/26:
The bugcheck was: 0x0000003b (0x00000000c0000005, 0xfffff8000313b3f7, 0xfffff880079deb50, 0x0000000000000000).
I have a dump saved for every BSOD that has occurred (it's automatic as I'm sure you all know) but I'm not sure how to access that.
ONE MORE THING, prior to this event, on 8/18 I re-installed all my graphics drivers because I was having video issues that were causing BSOD. However, after I re-installed the drivers, the problem disappeared until the BSOD on 8/26(as mentioned above).
I hope this information is useful and if anyone needs further info, let me know.
Thank you!
