ObiWanShinobi said:First off, thanks for your prompt replies and for the helpful links. I filled out the form in my profile as suggested- sorry about not being clearer! According to the wattage calculator, my devices come in at just under the 250 watts that the PSU allegedly puts out- that can't be good. The problems with the BSODs have been getting worse over time, and they tend to be rather random as I explained in my original post; they can occur whether I'm trying to play a game, or when the computer's just idling. It also froze once. A tech-savvy friend told me it was likely the MB, but the PSU sounds like it could be the culprit as well. It definitely isn't the RAM as I've tested various sticks under Memtest overnight and none of them have returned errors, although one crashed my comp during a bit fade test.
Your computer crashed with nt status code c000001d (ie illegal instruction) which is usually caused by faulty mother board or CPU. The problem is not related to RAM.Kwest19 said:Ok, I'll try a third time
I am getting about one blue screen a day at the moment - mainly featuring the ***STOP: 0x0000008E message. I have recently bought a 550W power supply and have an AMD Athlon XP 2800+ 2.09 GHz and 1.5 GB ram. I just really want to get to the bottom of this, as I am a web designer and this is causing me great annoyance. I would just like to know if this is likely a hardware or software issue.
Thanks in advance..

mister rp said:hello i am new to the boards and came across this topic. i have a similar problem on my newly built system.
amd 3000 1.8
asus a8v
ocz 512x2
geforce fx5200 (old card) driver 71.89
ultra 400 watt power supply
the description is as follows:
the computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. the bug check was: 0x00000050 (0xe123043c, 0x00000001, 0x805368a2, 0x00000001)
i attached also my last 4 minidumps.
please help me if possible.
thank you in advance
cpc2004 said:Your 2nd dump is inaccesible and the first dump failed at nt!ExAllocatePoolWithTag+671. Faulty ram is the culprit. Reseat the memory may resolve the problem. If it doesn't work, take out a memory stick if you have more than one memory stick. Trouble shoot which memory stick is one.

Normally I run my p4 2.4 at 2.7 (since i got it over 2 years ago), then some months ago windows was blue screening, and I found pulling back on the speed (to stock) and it was fine, and since it worked I had other things to worry about.
Come two weeks ago, again blue screening... pretty random, hard to replicate but very quickly got worse... sometimes I'd get into windows, and bam bsod... or maybe i'tll be fine for a few hours THEN bsod, eventually it would just BSOD on loading too.
The blue screens are stop errors, most commonly irql not less or equal or page fault in non paged area (0x0000008E with (0xC0000005, 0x805122DE, 0xED334C04, 0x00000000) is pretty common). I ended up putting the fsb to 100 (from stock of 133), and cpu runs at 1.8 and it was fine (after swapping out everything (psu, ram, video card, pci cards, hard disks, etc), the only things I havent tried are swapping mobo/cpu. ), and it was fine running under the stock speed at 1.8. And it's not a heat issue either - cpu and mobo temps are always relatively low.
Come yesterday, same **** again... bsod, reboot and bsod again, reboot agian, i log in, 2 mins later, bsod... I give up and I cant make it go any slower
Either the cpu or mobo need to be replaced/rma'd, I dunno which, although I'm slightly leaning more towards cpu.
Ok I've finally pulled the minidumps out of it...
Getting the minidumps was hell, just bsod after bsod on loading windows or logging in... I put the vcore from 1.5 to 1.65 and it lasted long enough to get explorer and event viewer open...and crash... Pushed the vcore to 1.7 (EEK), and it's been stable not only for seconds, but a good 15 minutes! looks like 99% it's the cpu now
Having the expert here taking a look at the dump files would really be appreciated
I think it's time for a new PC anyways, hopefully Athlon64 here I come![]()
TrunkZ said:Hi,
I'm currently having the same problem, but first of all my pc system:
AMD 64XP 3500+
Asus A8V Deluxe
MSI Geforce 6800GT
TwinMOS Dual 1024MB RAM
Now the problem:
After playing maybe 5-8 hours World of Warcraft, I get strange graphical bugs like those:
http://zuLu-tourney.de/bug1.jpg
http://zuLu-tourney.de/bug2.jpg
Of course I can't keep playing like that, so I either have to restart my PC or close the game. I also found out that as soon as this problem occurs, my pc seems to be very slow until I close the game. Sometimes a BSOD arrives before I'm able to do that. If I close the game, I seem to have only few hours until that bug occurs again, but if I restart the PC, i have those 5-8h again.
Maybe I should mention that I changed the GPU Cooler twice (i've never done that before), so maybe I damaged a ram on the graphic board or something.
What I've already done:
- Checked the Mainboard and CPU temperature just after restarting and it was ok (20-30°C mb and 40-50°C CPU)
- Installed latest nvidia drivers => nothing changed
- formatted my HDD => the bug seemed to be gone but soon arrived again..
- Memtest 15hours => no error
and one week ago, after reading some pages of this topic, I downloaded Nvidia 61.77 drivers and uninstalled my AV Program (FreeAntiVir). The bug hasnt occured again until now (and thats why i write this post).
A friend of mine said that the rams on the graphic board might have been damaged. That would be bad because i changed the cooler so i lost my guarantee of the graphic card.
I attached a Dump log of the BSOD which happened a few minutes ago ^^.
Thanks for any help in advance.
(ive since put the vcore back to stock..) tried going into windows, blue screen pretty much as soon as it started loading with a stop 0x00000050 message O_o i tried booting knoppix (linux off cd, im sure you're familiar with it)... segmentation fault in loadingcpc2004 said:I don't believe that it is hardware error as the failing instruction is consistent.
I think the problem is related to firewall or anti-virus software. De-install avg7core.sys. Maybe it resolves the problem
