I just put together a new computer :

600W PSU
Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 2.66GHz
OCZ Gold 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
EVGA 141-BL-E757-TR LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX X58 SLI LE Intel Motherboard
EVGA 896-P3-1257-AR GeForce GTX 260
Western Digital Caviar Black WD5001AALS 500GB

Everything seemed to be in working order except I get bsod with the following error

BCCode : 3b BCP1 : 00000000C0000096 BCP2 : FFFFFADF588FFAB7
BCP3 : FFFFFADF58D30080 BCP4 : 0000000000000000 OSVer : 5_2_3790
SP : 2_0 Product : 256_1

C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER71b5.dir00\M ini081309-01.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER71b5.dir00\s ysdata.xml

I read the minidump and found this.

*** WARNING: Unable to verify checksum for disk.sys

Could not read faulting driver name
*** WARNING: Unable to verify checksum for PartMgr.sys
*** WARNING: Unable to verify checksum for fltmgr.sys
Probably caused by : disk.sys ( disk!memmove+60 )

Not sure where to go from here. Im guessing its something with ram?

Furthermore, if i log into world of warcraft i get 3 fps which i assume is linked to this.

I would appreciate any help I can get.

Edit: Forgot to put processor in spec.

Hello boarder88.... Welcome to GeeksToGo, :) :) :)
I'm sorry to hear about your problem and we will do our best to help you get it resolved.

Let's check your memory and make sure there is no issue with it. Download memtest86 from the link in my signature below.


Get the file that is named Download - The one you want is "Download - Pre-compiled Bootable ISO (.zip). When it downloads, it will be labeled memtest86+2.11.iso.zip
Unzip the file once you download it. You should have a .iso file in the unzipped directory. It will look like a zip file in some cases but the file name will now be memtest86+2.11.iso

if you don't have a burning program that will burn .ISO files get burncdcc in my signature below.

NOTE...do not put a blank cd in until burncdcc opens the tray for you
1. Start BurnCDCC
2. Browse to the ISO file you want to burn on cd/dvd ....in this case its memtest86.iso
3. Select the ISO file
4. click on Start

Make sure the bios is set for the cd drive as the first boot device
Put the cd in the cd drive and then boot your computer.

Running the Diagnostic Program:

The basic diagnostic screen has five main sections of relevant information. Three at the top which are labeled, PASS %, TEST %, and TEST #. This will basically show you the total progress of the current test, the overall progress of the diagnostic test, and the test number is currently performing.

On the middle left hand side of the of the program interface there is a “Wall Time” section that will keep track of how long the diagnostic test has been running for. This just gives you an idea if you are not attending the testing process.

The main section to look for is the lower half of the screen which is usually blank. As long as the memory testing is going ok with no errors this section of the screen should remain blank. If the diagnostic program finds any serious faults in the memory you will see it display a memory dump of address’s in this section. This is similar to what is displayed on your screen when you encounter a blue screen of death.

You now have most everything you need to know about setting up and testing your memory with diagnostic programs. This guide should help you get to the source of any intermittent problems related to your memory.


Run memtest for at least 2 hours
If it starts showing any errors during that time then you will have to replace the memory
If there are no errors after 2 hours press Esc and that will end the tests
We will then try other options

Let it run for 4 hours and it came up with nothing. Next plan of attack?

Oh and that 3 fps issue randomly fixed itself. I have no idea how but im getting what i should now.

Just need to deal with the blue screen....

Hmm ok
On your MOBO are your memory slots color coded?
In other words are there 4 slots
two black and two yellow?

Thanks for the help but I just reformatted with windows 7 and so far so good. I'll bump this back if the problem returns.
