    Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I am new to these forums, or atleast newly registered I have been comming here for help for a while.
    So here is my problem; In about April, I purchased computer parts from Newegg.com and built myself a computer with a friend of mine. About a month after the building, it crashed for the first time. I thought nothing of it started it back up, and it kept crashing, so I reinstalled for the first time. About 2-5 days later crash, yet this time it would crash during the Windows Loading screan. I thought it was my mother board because a friend of mine lent me his harddrive and some Ram, I replaced it still crashed before windows could load. So I thought for sure it must be MoBo, so I sent it back to them and they sent it back I put it in the computer reinstalled windows. About a week later Crash. So I purchased a new harddrive because i thought that it was crashing due to the harddrive failure, because the error i kept gettng was missing or curropt file. I bought the new harddrive put it in resinalled windows and crashed again. So my next door neighbor is a computer tech, him and his friend brought it to work and resinalled everything with drivers etc. They were leaning on the video card being a problem because thats pretty much the only thing I didn't replace. So they ran a stability test for 2 weeks with a different video card, no crash, then they ran the same stability test with my video card, for about a week, then it crashed. However, It didn't have the problem with the blue screens before windows could load and they figured out that the Wirless Card was bad. So they brought it back to me, I took out the wirless card, worked for about 2 days after before it crashed.
    I am still able to use it as of now, however I do not know if it will still be stable when I get back home from work at 5:30. I have the Windump File Saved and will post it below, along with all the things I have downloaded.
    If there are any more questions please ask below and I will try to post it as soon as possilble with the information I have off hand.

    Thankyou in advance and I am sorry for the Wall of Text. :eek:

    Hi

    Do you still get any BSODs? if so please post the full code and message as the dump cannot read any driver issues, so not complete.

    Suspecting a driver as the problem, starting point is to boot to safe mode and leave your PC on while your out or over night to see if any crashes happen, also update the major ones like Wireless, Chipset, Graphics, network.

    Another suspect and one to look into if the crashes are random is heat issues, so download Everest and in its Summary > Sensor section it will give you system temps, please post them.


    Long way to try and see what the issue could be is to re-install Windows and then update drivers, then test with a bare bones install before installing any software and security applications, then if ok add one software app at a time, as some especially security apps have services and drivers, so could be one of them causing this.

    So far I haven't gotten any BSOD since the original one last night. However this is normally the start of the downward spiral into the Reacurring BSOD during windows loading screen.

    The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x10000050 (0xe145f410, 0x00000000, 0x8054afcb, 0x00000001). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini092608-01.dmp.
    I hope this is helps.

    Also, I have unistalled the wirless alltogether and took out the card so currently I am using my MoBo's LAN Driver.

    And for the heat issues, I am using the Antec 900, and all the air coming out of the case seems very cool compared to my other computers that are A LOT hotter that dont crash, howerver I will still download and check it out.

    What exactly is a barebone install?

    Also I ran a Mem Test Over night and there were no errors.

    Thanks for your help,
    Eric

    I ran the program and it found 53 problems, majority of them under HKEY_LOCAL and HKEY_CURRENT. To tell you the truth I have no idea what these are or how to fix them. Is there a way I could post them or send them to you?

    Thanks
