I'm having bsod's of many variations (watch minidumps P.S. there are not all of them cuz i reinstalled windows twice while trying to fix this). I don't think this is ram problem cuz checked it with memtest 4.2 .
I'm having bsod's while playing league of legends, surfing internet, counter-strike, etc.
I've changed replaced old motherboard with same model new one (PC worked fine with it for a month). Tryied changing places of ram cards.
Did chkdisk couple of times. (fixed alot of problems). Oh and when i reinstalled windows i formated disc. Also did defragment, cleaned registry. Also i had blue screens even in safe mode.
I want to know what piece of hardware i have to replace!
P.S. About dumps, most often bsod was caused by Ntfs.sys but as i said not all of minidumps are included!
Please help me to figure out what to do people!
Motherboard: Asus M4A78LT-M LE (month old)
Cpu: Amd Phenom II x4 840 3.2 Ghz (2 years)
Vga: Asus Radeon Hd 5770 1Gb GDDR5 CuCore (2 years)
Ram: 2x2gb dont know model (2 years)
Power supply: Cooler Master Elite Power 400W (2 years P.S. checked month ago no issues)
Disc Drive: idk
This implies that a hardware related error (perhaps a hardware IRQ request, etc) caused an issue with bus communication. CPU, RAM, GPU itself, etc.
So, with this said:
1. How long did you run Memtest for? If it was less than 7-8 passes, please run it again to be sure.
2. Run Furmark to check GPU under load:
Furmark:
FurMark Video Stress Test - free from here: http://www.ozone3d.net/benchmarks/fur/ FurMark Setup: - If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup - In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature" Click "Go" to start the test (Looks like it's "BURN-IN test" now) - Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first). - Click "Quit" to exit
1. I ran full Memtest. (10 passes) No problems detected.
2. The temperature went up till 87 C fans where 95% and then i stopped furmark. Not because of lags or problems, just cause didnt wanted to damage it or something. But if you call problems laggy switching between windows like furmark window *switch* *lag* internet page then yes i had them on these temperatures. And i haven't noticed any animation lag or something like that in "BURN-IN Test" at that temperature FPS stays locked at 29 all the time.
Moment when i stopped the test:
You can see how the temperature falls there i've pressed spacebar accidentaly and turned off the ring in middle, but put it back by pressing spacebar again.
3. Going to do right now.
4. Going to check right now.
Thanks for the detailed information, greatly appreciated.
87c is okay for Furmark as Furmark is not an accurate representation of your temperatures in other 3D apps or video games, because it's a very intense stress test. We mostly just use it for seeing if a BSOD or freeze is forced upon such stress.
Try running it for at least ~15 minutes. If it gets anywhere higher than 90c, stop it.
3. Just checked my BIOS version is 0803. And latest on the Asus website is the same 0803.
4. Temperatures are average of standards for the gpu cpu and hdd. (like middle between lowest and highest)
Going for 15 minutes of furmark!
Ensure you have the latest video card drivers. If you are already on the latest video card drivers, uninstall and install a version or a few versions behind the latest to ensure it's not a latest driver only issue. You can try beta drivers as last resort if driver versions are not helping.
So there is no issues with my hdd? Or if reinstalling drivers won't help it means the problem is in hdd? Oh, sorry forgot to mention i had BSOD even when was installing windows had to do it over again couple of times!
Okay, i have latest version of drivers for gpu. But i can't really say if there are any changes, because i don't have time now to play a league of legends match or something to check for bsod's or freezes or amd driver stops.
*edit*
Gotta go i will be on tommorow. Bye!
Log looks fine. Also, Seatools notifies you if it has failed I believe. We'll hold off on further HDD diagnostics until I see anything that would warrant it again.
This happens during installations sometimes, especially framework I would imagine. Although, five seconds may be a little much. Anyway, I don't think it's anything to get worked up about just yet. Keep me updated on the system's behavior.
Okay there are some bad news and good news.
Short Test: Passed
Acoustic Test: Did nothing, just said your hdd will go into idle mode or something like that.
Long Test (Bad News) : When I started it, on top of the screen appeared green text barely readable (small) and a strange, loud BEEP noise. Retried by rebooting pc and doing the long test again, but still those green texts with BEEP noise.
Yeah and while those green texts on the screen i cant move mouse or something like that (screen freezes like in BSOD or just freeze).
Just had random stuff on screen. Every texture and every icon where messed up like in internet window i see some screwed up turned in 45 degrees desktop and when i do something it just changes colors and moves around i think the amd driver messed up.
I can upload video of that mess.
