Constant BSOD's on P6N Diamond in vista
As the topic says, I am getting constant (about once per day, maybe more than that) blue screens in vista 32bit. Here are my system specs:
Mobo: P6N Diamond PS: SeaSonic S12 Energy Plus 550W GFX: EVGA 8800GTX 768MB Sound: Creative X-Fi Extreme Gamer Proc: Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 Ram: CORSAIR XMS2 2GB DDR2 800 All mobo options are default (except ram timings set to: 4-4-4-12). So far I have: Tried 1 million diff gfx drivers. Uninstalled and removed soundcard. Ran memtest for many, many, many hours. I plan to try a backup graphics card tonight, but if it still bluescreens on me, I guess it's safe to assume the problem is the mobo? The system is extremely stable in XP, though I will say sometimes 3D games will crash and throw up an exception. I never get any bluescreens in XP like I do in vista though. Hell, I've had the computer bluescreen while it's idle with a screensaver up. I'm looking for opinions and help. |

Well firstly making sure all drivers are 100% up to date and yadda yadda yadda. However, also make sure that you have Vista SP1 installed (if you don't already) and make sure that you have any hotfixes relevant to your hardware installed. Most likely with the SP1 update, all the latest drivers, and all the most recent relevant hotfixes you should be good to go.
However to help you more, which BSOD are you getting. Ox8E 0x1A etc. I can tell you many times its actually RAM and not the hardware you want to blame. Cheers Cameron
