Frequent BSODs on new desktop

[maverick280857]

Hi everyone

I've recently set up a desktop with the following configuration:

Intel Core i7 920 CPU
Gigabyte EX58 Extreme M/B
Corsair 1333 MHz DDR 3 Memory (3 GB, triple channel)
2 x 250 GB Seagate SATA HDD
Palit GTX 295 video card

I am running Vista Ultimate 32 bit on this machine, and my problem is that I encounter at least one BSOD a day. It just pops up randomly. I have the latest drivers for the graphics card. No external drives or USB peripherals (other than a mouse) are connected when this error is encountered.

I sometimes get a BSOD with PAGE_FAULT_IN_NOPAGED_AREA and at other times its just a nondescript BSOD.

I'd be grateful if someone could help me fix this.

Thanks and cheers

There's not enourh information to diagnose... What are you doing at the time? Is it a fresh install? Any wierd background apps? Have you thought about over heating?

No, no fresh installs. The CPU core temperatures are 47,50,49,48 degrees C, the GPU temperature is about 70 degrees C. Everything works normally, just every so often I get a BSOD and I don't know what do with it.

Have you tried a Memory test? Your RAM might have errors.

It could be a hardware issue, especially the RAM...as Crabby described. It could also be a bad installation. Sometimes the installation does not go as expected. Everything seems to work until a specific program or driver needs a specific file from the OS, if that file is not installed correctly an error can occur. This normally happens when the DVD is dirty, has print marks or was recorded from an ISO at a too high speed (it may have skipped).

felix try running windows 7 on it and see if you get the same when I first built this machine to go with vista it did that to me I checked everything and all was fine just drivers I guess I reverted to Xp and kept on trying with new drivers untill it resolved itself this can be one of the irritaitions of self build all components should be compatable they are not

[felix8406]

I agree Buster. Must BSOD issues are driver related. One thing Maverick can do is to go to Device Manger and unistall all drivers and let windows install the default Microsoft drivers.
