    My computer for the past 4 weeks or so i kept getting tha BSOD first i was thinking that it was my PSU going bad so i bought a new one.And that was not the issue.My mother board has two different kinds of setups PATA and SATA i had my main windows OS on my Sata and i had my PATA HD as a extra HD space.

    The PATA is what was causing all my issues.The HD still works i just do not know if it was the gray ATA cable or not but i took out the 80 gig and had not one crash since i did this.

    When your computer is running a 0x050 code It is extremely hard to figure out what the real issue is if the HD is running perfectly fine.It was not bad or any thing no errors on the HD and as far as i know the cable select was right be cause i had my CD rom on the same cable.

    Be cause when your Computer is running a 0x050 they can be frustrating to figure out alot of times.And it could take you a month to figure it out.

    I ran over 40 programs to diagnose the issue and i just took out one part at a time and when it stoped BSOD that was the part the 80gig i had in i think that it is the cable it self.But not really sure.

    Maybe you should switch from CS=Cable Select on the drives to Master on the HD and Slave on the CDROM.:wave
