Hi, first off this looks like a great community and I want to say thanks in advance to any help that you folks can give. I just bought a new Alienware; please don't flame or laugh, I know I could have built one just as good for much less money, and I did for my wife. However, for me I wanted the cool toy. She of course is letting me know every time I BSOD that her machine is working fine for a lot less $$. At any rate I am getting BSOD quite frequently, especially when in game (WOW). At any rate let me get to the facts:
Config-
Processor: QX6700
Motherboard: EVGA Nforce 680I SLI MB
Memory: PDP 1GB DDR2 Low Latency PC-6400 AW108 X 2
Harddrive: Seagate 250GB Sata 3G 7200RPM 8MB CACHE
Video: EVGA Nvidia GTX8800 768MB
OS: Vista Premium Home Edition
I have added the following two items: Logitech G15 keyboard, Razer/Microsoft Habu Mouse. I downloaded the most recent version of drivers for these items. I had about 3-4 BSOD before I added these items, but my tech savy friends told me that was part of the "getting the kinks out" stage.
In two days I have probably had 10+ BSOD with the following error information:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.768.3
Locale ID: 1033
Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: 124
BCP1: 00000000
BCP2: 840F1D18
BCP3: B2000000
BCP4: 00000175
OS Version: 6_0_6000
Service Pack: 0_0
Product: 768_1
The minidump files are attached. I have done the following other steps:
1 - I opened the case to make sure everything was seated properly and all cables were plugged in.
2 - I downloaded the most recent Nvidia Geforce Drivers (released 2/10). Version: 7.15.11.65
3 - Held my temper in check.
Thanks again for any help or insight.
