cluberti Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Speaking of waiting, what kind of hardware is in this machine, and how old or new is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtK Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Speaking of waiting, what kind of hardware is in this machine, and how old or new is it?I'm not near the computer, but:The computer is LG S1 Express.it is 2.5 y/o...the only thing I changed was the memory.it came with 2*512 DDR, now it has 1*2048 + 1*512 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Well, it *is* a hardware fault, as I said before.

Either it's damaged from overvoltage or overclocking, or it's overheating, or you're just unlucky and it was a bad part (Status B200000000010014 == damaged or overheating CPU, btw - I'm not guessing). No matter what way you look at it, you aren't going to fix this without going back to the vendor for a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtK Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 (edited) I didn't want to say anything but the computer is already at LG's lab since yesterday.now I can report to them that you found this error so they should check the CPU too (although heating is always one of my complaint when I leave the computer over there)thanks!

cluberti Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Not a problem. If they weren't able to figure this out themselves from this dump, honestly, I'd not buy a future machine from them. Just my .02¢. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my .02¢.actually, not sure they can see this analysis because the HD is not in the computer but I'll contact them first thing tomorrow to inform them...btw,do you still want/need the other 2 DUMPs?(as far as I can remember they indicated for a different STOP error) Edited September 17, 2008 by MtK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksen Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Random BSOD's: 7F, 8e, a, 50:Been trying to fix my random crashes and sudden reboots for a while now with no big luck, I think I have fixed causes of an USB crash I had and a non random nvidia driver crash (used drive cleaner then reinstalled the driver). I think it started with BSOD's and that made me stop using a chat application that ran many scripts (most of the crash dumps were pointing at it...) but that didn't really fix it. I have also tried many hardware test software such as memtest, burnintest (tested almost everything for long periods) and even formatted my primary hard drive to reinstall windows XP... but after a while the same kind of crashes started happening. ----------------------------------jacksenWord Of Mouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 actually, not sure they can see this analysis because the HD is not in the computer Attaching a null modem cable and a debugger would get them the same data. They should know how to do this.btw, do you still want/need the other 2 DUMPs? (as far as I can remember they indicated for a different STOP error)No, once I've got an actual hardware error bugcheck, nothing else matters.

cluberti Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 What you have is people seeing a bugcheck code and guessing (knowing only some experience with some *other* bugcheck they've had, or someone knows of someone with a similar bugcheck, etc). Since we know what the problem is, I'm closing this thread to avoid any further speculation (not necessary) or embarassment for those just guessing at an answer and grasping at straws.
