cluberti Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Although it doesn't appear you're getting a STOP 0x9c, you're getting the same bugcheck code. This one can be a little tricky to track down, but it almost always comes down to faulty drivers or bad hardware.First, I'd strongly suggest you keep track of exactly what you are doing on your machine every time it occurs, to see if there is a pattern. Second, I'd make sure I was using the latest vendor driver for every piece of hardware in that machine that uses drivers, from sound and video to chipset. Third, I'd update everything in that machine - BIOS, firmware for all hardware if possible (including disk drives, video cards, sound cards, etc - if any update to firmware is available, flash it). Lastly, if I still had issues, I'd scale back hardware to just a video card, a stick of RAM, one disk drive, and the processor and motherboard to see if the problems continued.

RJARRRPCGP Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 (edited) You likely have a bad processor chip or power supply. Sorry. Edited November 5, 2006 by RJARRRPCGP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BombaTwist Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 ill see what i can do with the firmware, if my harddrive is faulty, could i do some kind of reformat to clear the whole drive empty and reuse it again? or will it still be faulty? because the 80gb harddrive i put in had an OS installed on it and i never took out the OS from it, just deleted the WINDOWS folder that was in it, and things like that.

BombaTwist Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 ok when i try to transfer my files to my external hd that i have on that 80 gig that i think is corrupted, it gives me the BSOD error, but when i try to transfer files from my 40gig to my external, everything runs fine.so im guessing the harddrive is the problem, was wondering if formatting it would solve the problem, or would i have to buy a new one?
