Hi,

For the past 3-4 weeks I've continually been experiencing random BSOD's whilst on my PC - the only time I don't have the problem is when I'm playing a game, for example I can play WOW for 6+ hours without any errors. I've formatted the hard drive, installed a new copy of XP - my 1001 event log shows the following:

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x000000d1 (0x00000404, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xf765e573). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\MEMORY.DMP.

Various errors I get....

avg7rsxp.sys BSOD
ndis.sys BSOD
USBUHCI.sys BSOD
USBPORT.sys BSOD

and a few other random faults.

My heart tells me my mobo is failing but I thought I'd post here to check before spending money on a new one.

Thanks in advance :)
 
I'm being dumb here but when I double click on pstat it quickly cycles through my system but how do I get the results?
 
Click the download button. Install pstat and run pstat at command mode.

ie pstat > pstat.txt. Attach pstat.txt here

I tried that, when I double click on the .exe file it opens a window and cycles through quickly - how can I do it in the command mode?
 
As you don't know how to use command prompt and I give up.

Zip 2 to 3 minidumps a zip file and attach it here and you can find the minidump at \windows\minidump. Techspot has a upper limit of 100K per attachment. Don't ask me how to use winzip and how to attach a file at this website as I assume that you know how to do it. I will study the dump and find out the culprit.
 
Hi zippot,

I received a lot of 0xd1, and 0x8e erros and also the occasional 0x50. Some BSOD also reffered to ndis.sys, usbport.sys and usbuhci.sys like some of yours have. I posted on here and cpc offered help. He analysed my dump files and suggested it may be my motherboard. I've changed my motherboard and all the problems i have are gone (except the odd issue with the new m/b).

I'm not saying it is necessarily your motherboard at fault. I'm saying that I experienced similar to what you are experiencing and it seems my motherboard was at fault.

Cheers mate, I've attached the latest 3.

Thanks Andy, I reckon it's the motherboard as well but just want to make sure before buying a new one.

:)
 
Hi Zippot.

Probably it is faulty ram. Zip 7 to 10 minidumps here so I can confirm ram is the culprit.
 
Hi CPC, if you've got time can you have a quick look at the dumps please? If it is memory or motherboard I can go out tomorrow and buy a replacement.

I should add that I've tried each stick of 512MB in by themselves and each stick in each bank and the problem persists - therefore if the memory is faulty then both have failed at the same time.
