Hi, I've been getting BSODs randomly, mostly when I set my computer to shutdown at a certain time using a widget (Autoshutdown Restyled). It doesn't happen all the time, only sometimes. Just then, I tried shutting down by going through the start menu and I got a bluescreen. It said "Memory_Management".

· OS?
Windows 7 Ultimate x64

· What was original installed OS on system?
Windows 7 Ultimate x64

· Is the OS an OEM version (came pre-installed on system) or full retail version (YOU purchased it from retailer)?
It is an OEM software which I bought seperatly

· Age of system (hardware):
2 or 3 years ago

· Age of OS installation - have you re-installed the OS?
I haven't re-installed the OS

· CPU
i7 920

· Video Card
ATI 5770

· MotherBoard
ASUS P6T

· Power Supply - brand & wattage
Corsair TX-750

I hope someone can solve my problem :smile: Thanks in advance

Re: Shutdown BSOD

Thanks for the super fast reply! :flowers: I turned on Driver Verifier and it kept bluescreening before loading Windows so I'm guessing I have a driver issue.

About the Microsoft Firewire Driver, I have no clue as to why it crashed since I usually safety eject my devices but that's fine.

Re: Shutdown BSOD

I just did as you suggested for using the legacy 1394OCHI driver and I uninstalled Acronis awhile back. I guess it didn't full uninstall since you see it in a crash I had. I'll give Driver Verifier a go and will keep you posted :wink:

Re: Shutdown BSOD

Just ran the Driver Verifier again and it seems like the Firewire Driver wasn't the issue (But it feels as if my computer is faster but it could be my imagination) because it had another bluescreen. It happens half way when the "Windows Starting" gui is loading up. Thank you so far for all the support :thumb:

Re: Shutdown BSOD

I just attached an image of the bluescreen that I had taken with my phone camera. It doesn't look that informative about the cause of the problem but I could be wrong. I'll have to do the JCGriff report tomorrow because it's pretty late here and I have work :facepalm:

I'm currently doing the tests now so I'm replying via my phone. That bluescreen was the only blue screen I got when turning on Driver Verifier so I turned it back off. I'll let you know asap about the test results.

Yes, I setup Driver Verifier then it says to restart in order for it to take effect which I had no problem doing. Its only when it starts up from the restart that it crashes. Well I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the outcome of the tests are.

Re: Shutdown BSOD

So far, all the tests have passed (Memtest86+, MemtestG80/CL, & Seatools) but I haven't done the Prime95. After the tests, I decided to do some trial and error with Driver Verifier and I found out that the blank BSOD on Windows start-up was caused by "sptd.sys" (I found out by picking only that driver in Driver Verifier). Also, when I enabled only "asio.sys", it bluescreened when I was logged into Windows. I attached the DMP file in this reply.

Re: Shutdown BSOD

Thanks for the advice. I uninstalled Daemon Tools and all the ASUS software that came with my motherboard. I had to manually delete the Asio.sys driver because it wasn't on Driver Sweep. Driver Verifier hasn't picked up any other buggy drivers so it seems like everything is working :smile: Thank you for all the help, it was much appreciated :thumb:
