    Keep getting BSOD
    « on: July 11, 2015, 01:20:01 PM »
    I have no idea what to do.  My computer keeps going to BSOD and restarting.  I tried to search why, but it only stays on for maybe 1 or 2 minutes before it simply goes to the BSOD and restarts again.  I don't even have time to read the screen and see what the error codes are or anything.  I only have my grandsons laptop to do trouble shooting so any thoughts or ideas are appreciated.  I've checked all the connections, appear to be solid and intact, and I don't know what happened prior as I was sleeping and the wife was playing a game (probably on facebook) and all of sudden it went to bsod and keeps doing it.  thanks in advance

    1) What is new or different since the last time everything worked properly (ie, new hw, new sw, virus, error, etc)?

    2) Download BlueScreenView:
    http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html
    unzip downloaded file and double click on BlueScreenView.exe to run the program.
    when scanning is done, go to EDIT - Select All
    Go to FILE - SAVE Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt
    Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all of the content, and paste it into your next reply

      As far as I am aware nothing new was added, changed, or anything, but then again, I was asleep after work. But I couldn't find anything.  Just for info, the computer hasn't shut down this time but here is the file.

      First thing you want to do is check your ram: download memtest (http://memtest.org/). Burn it to a cd using a dedicated .iso burning utility (http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm), make sure the cd drive is at the top of the boot order in bios, then boot to the newly created cd and run the utility

      Also, you should run a diagnostic on your hd: http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287
      Make sure you select the tool which is appropriate for the brand of your hard drive.
      Depending on the program, it'll create bootable floppy, or bootable CD.
      If downloaded file is of .iso type, use ImgBurn: http://www.imgburn.com/ to burn .iso file to a CD (select "Write image file to disc" option), to make the CD bootable.
      For Toshiba drives, see here: http://sdd.toshiba.com/main.aspx?Path=ServicesSupport/FujitsuDrivesUSandCanada/SoftwareUtilities#diagnostic

          Just a quick follow up.  I'm still going to do the steps above, assuming i can figure out who makes my hard drive, i've looked but all it says is standard disk (it's a dell xps that i have).  But I shut the system down, and turned it back on later, and it's been running w/o a bsod for about 6  hours now.  So i don't know what the problem was/is, maybe i'll know more after doing the above steps, but thanks again for all the input.

          Your HD manufacturer and model should be listed in Device Manager (Control Panel). For a comprehensive list of installed components and software, download, install and run Belarc Advisor

            getting ready to work on above tasks.  how do I know which memtest to use, and according to belarc my harddrive is arrayo but I didn't see that listed.  this is so weird, cuz it was working fine the other night and when I first downloaded belarc it went to a blue screen, but today, belarc worked just fine, and this time when I first tried to post this msg it went to blue screen.  oh well, i'll work on the above tasks first.  thanks.

            Never heard of arrayo. Look in Device Manager - what does it list as your hd?

              Okay. Well you can try the dos version of the WD utility or you can just do the following (which isn't as comprehensive, but it's better than nothing):

              Right-click on a command prompt icon and open as administrator. In the command prompt window type: chkdsk /r  (then press ENTER). You'll be told the disk is in use and asked if you want to run checkdisk on the next boot. Say yes, exit the command prompt window, and reboot.

              "arrayo" is probably "Array0" which is something of a pseudo-device created when your HDD is on a RAID Array.

              From what I can find it seems that Dell XPS systems come preconfigured with two hard disks as part of a BIOS-level RAID Array. This would explain why it would be listed and detected as "array0".

              I've tried to find what brand of HDD they use but they don't appear to have it listed anywhere.
              I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.
