System Specs

Blue screens with windows 7

So i recently switched to windows 7, with that i got new ram. I rarely use to blue screen (before win7) but lately i have been blue screening a lot. Im guessint its the ram but i wanna be sure.

it does it at random times.

Here is the dump file.

OS is corrupted.

Do this:
1) Open up a elevated command prompt (search for 'cmd' and right click, run as admin).
2) Type sfc /scannow
3) Hit enter and let that run
4) when done enter chkdsk /r
5) Hit enter and it will ask to run at next start up
6) agree
7) reboot

It will probably take some time to do all this so you know.

If it finds something it might be able to save the OS install. Other wise you'll need to reinstall the OS.

Run memtest and if it shows errors you have faulty ram.

Instead of a dump file (i cant get it to work with mega upload (worst thing to use IMHO)), can you give us the STOP error code?

Windows 7 doesn't cause blue screens. As CrAsHnBuRnXp said, run memtest because your ram may be faulty.

A simple way to do it is to use Bluescreenview, a program that puts all information in clean rows and colums and so on.

it should be ok, try look at the bios first and look at the setting
or setting it on standard spec by manually than auto, check the timing too
does the bsod appear randomly?

VSSVC.exe is the Windows Volume Shadow Copy service....if it's causing the crash....as mentioned already....OS is corrupt.....check your HD and memory out before reinstalling your OS....any overclocking going on should be reset to stock.....along with voltages as well.

Memory or Hard drive is my guess.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for info, I looked in my task manager before, but didn't see this service, because it was not running What if OP disables this service? If it's corrupted it could solve this problem, no?

No. Corrupted shadow copy is a symptom, not a cause. it's RAM or HDD IMO.

You may want to check the bios and make sure your timings and voltage are set correctly, before you go through the trouble of an RMA.
