BSODs galore

What kind of audio driver do you have installed, is it realtek?

Get a new audio driver from realtek's website or double check that you are on the most current version from MSI. If you are on there current driver, get the driver from realtek and install that after you remove the old driver and restart. 

 

That should fix your issue, keep track of the blue screens for the next 24 hours or if it even happens again and post back on this thread or feel free to pm me. I won't be on here for about another hour I have a user that needs there computer looked and them I'm going to lunch lol

How did you know it was linked to Realtek?

I've seen these seemingly random sorts of BSOD's happen twice before and both times they were hardware related.  The first one was due to a capacitor close to the ram slots on the motherboard that started to leak, which I attribute the BSOD's being random to power delivery to the ram fluctuating and causing random issues.  The 2nd one was due to a hard drive error that was not detected by SMART readings.  The hard drive situation though is a bit different as it was also causing the motherboard to randomly not detect that a drive was plugged in at all.  I might recommend just taking a quick glance at your motherboard and see if any of the capacitors are bulging or have anything that looks like is coming out of them.

I just started looking up some of the device codes associated to Blue Screens and that realtek driver just kept popping up over and over again so odds are that's the cause.

I've already done that like, 5 times because of the bad RAM... I don't feel like doing it again... It's a pain to download ~500 GB of Steam games.

you don't need to redownload. Just select the folder all your games were on previously and it uses it instead

The odds of that board having blown caps is pretty low to say the least, plus it's too repetitive to be something like that. If it was hardware he would see it more often than what it's happening, especially if it were blown caps.

 

Unless he is clearing his even viewer than, I'm willing to guarantee its a driver.

He reinstalled windows though, which implies he wiped the drives and most likely wiped the games.

oh one drive only?

He's got 3 but most people just let steam choose the installation place which is normally the main drive.

oh... Weird. I made sure it was on my tb ssd. Especially since my main is 240gbs

All my games are on my main HDD. My other two drives can't hold 500 GB of games.

Regarding the drivers, I reinstalled all the on-board drivers. I haven't had a BSOD thus far, but, again, seems to happen at random. On other thing I did was I disabled write caching on all but my main HDD. I don't think it could do anything, but it's worth a try I guess.

I had BSOD issues, it looked like it was probably the Realtek drivers so I uninstalled em and haven't had a crash since.

-FILE_SYSTEM - Issue With Hard Drive

 

 

-NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM - Issue With Hard Drive

 

-MEMORY_MANAGEMENT - Issue With Ram

 

-KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE - Could be Ram, Hard Drive, Drivers, or Corrupted Windows Files

 

-SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION - Usually caused by bad drivers

 

 

So no matter what you will need to re-install your games anyway and need a new HDD/SSD and new RAM. Don't need a whole new PC, some parts are still good, and your specs are decent. 

 

Sometimes the RAM will do that if it just has a little glitch. But since you turned off writing on one HDD and you're not getting them then that's probably it.

Specs are decent??? Decent in your mind sure, but they are probably good for him. He didn't come here to get criticism on his build. Those errors don't always mean those parts are bad so please don't go around telling people it does. If a computer crashes of course it's going to mention ram and hdd because it was stopped all of a sudden. 

 

 

Your specs are decent too, I wouldn't say good but decent to say the least

Disabling the write caching won't do much in this case, if you want to check the health status on your drives, I would recommend using CrystalDiskInfo. I've been using it for years and it's never let me down or produced false information.

Well that's from what I know of the errors, just trying to help him man.. People posted earlier saying that he should just get a new PC that's why I said that too. I mean if it keeps going then try those new parts.. It was just a suggestion...

 

And I know my parts are decent. I used up all my money. I'm only 16 with no job

Part's can't be decent until the build total 3k

 

na in all serious your rig is better than mine was when i was 16, I had a core 2 quad and a gtx 460.

But it worked for what I used it for, and played crysis.

Yeah, well I think with my keyboard, mouse, and all that I think it totals over 3k, but I also couldn't spend too much because I spent 2k 2 years ago on a build. Then monitors add another $700. Why are things so expensive!  :angry:

That's not even close to expensive, we ordered new battety back ups for work, which will keep our servers up for maybe 40 minutes. These things can cost up to 70k and even more, that's not counting all the equipment in the room which cost more than a mil.

Haha expensive for me. I have some questions for you, I'll message you.

Every time I boot, I seem to get a new BSOD. After the BSOD, my desktop restarts, but it boots fine. While using it, I don't seem to have any performance issues. A while back, I had bad RAM. I replaced that and reinstalled Windows. I still get all these BSODs even after I ran DISM, SFC, scanned my HDD with SMART, and tested my RAM with memtest with ~7 passes I recently also ran a virus scan, no threats. All I know is my wifi adapter downloads corrupt files, and I have no way to fix or remedy it (I know it's my wifi adapter because files download fine over Ethernet). I just download drivers and important files on my laptop then transfer with a flash drive.

 

These are the errors I know of.

-FILE_SYSTEM

-NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM

-MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

-KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE

-SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION

Do you have a legitimate copy of windows 7? if so use your Bootable USB or CD to  access the windows recover enviorment and use it to restore files, seems like there could be an issue with your boot loader...

I have a legit copy of 8, yes. I can still get on my PC. I could just run DISM and SFC for that. I'm not getting any issues anymore, I don't think. I checked event viewer, not getting any notable issues.
