Recent Blue Screens

Today I started getting BSODs out of no where. I was just messing with network adapters when the first one happened. I simply restarted and it was fine for while. Got another while playing CoD4, another while watching T.V., and another while running a stress test. After the CoD4 instance I bumped the CPU voltage up a bit, and again after the other random one. I'm running everything on stock right now and about to try a stress test. Any ideas so far?

what does the bsod say?

pbmaster · Oct 5, 2008, 11:20 PM

Well most say something along the lines of driver_irq_less than equal or something like that, one said something about trying to load outside the page file, and the one I got while trying to type this before said BAD_POOL_LOADEr

sounds like one your drivers has gone a little funny, or it could be an irq conflict with the motherboard.. i would try safe mode and see if that fixes it.

Maybe it could be the network card drivers, since it started acting up after you played around with network cards..

What should I try in safe mode? This JUST started happening today and I haven't changed anything. I was in safe mode earlier and I ran check disk but it didn't show anything.

do you have auto update enabled?

Ok, I just removed every nVidia driver on my machine and reinstalled mobo, ethernet, and display drivers. Hopefully this will work. And thanks phanbuey, if this keeps up I'll know what to change next.
