MagicAndre1981 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 the dx.sys is related to your graphics card. Which graphics card do you use? make sure you are using the latest drivers! nDIS.sys is part of the networking functionality of Windows. So make sure that you use the latest network card drivers. The 3rd driver belongs to your sound card. Which one do you use? The 4th driver is the USB port driver. Have you installed the chipset drivers for your mainboard? which USb devices do you use?

I have tried to notice if I am doing anything different on those istorm days, but cannot correlate anything, I don't do much but surf and email, analyze a few minidumps occasionally.I shut down the PC every night.Here are the full hardware specshttp://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=prodtmpspec&maincat_no=134&cat2_no=&cat3_no=&prod_no=1674All I can do I guess is try the latest drivers again, maybe there are newer versions.I am beginning to think it is a Windows 7 bug running on this particular hardware, just won't play nice together.Thanks for looking..

cluberti Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 The unknown module, if it has an offset starting at 0x8xxxxxxx, is a kernel mode driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 @clubertiHow can we detect which driver it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoe Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 The unknown module, if it has an offset starting at 0x8xxxxxxx, is a kernel mode driver.The reason I reached this website was because a process called System (description: NT Kernel & System) was using around 30% of my CPU during really CPU intensive parts of work, meaning my computer locked up or ran really slow. Only been happening in the last week or so (I reformatted a couple months ago to get rid of the W7 RC) :/ running W7 32bit, not sure if this helps.
