These are my sytem spec.

I have constant problems with BSoD...
I suspect that my hard is in bad condition, and probably RAM but i'm not asking about this...
but let me hear what you have to say about crashes...

This are crash reports:

On Wed 11.1.2012 0:25:17 GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini011112-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: nv4_disp.dll (nv4_disp+0x24672E)
Bugcheck code: 0x1000008E (0xFFFFFFFFE0000001, 0xFFFFFFFFF7BFF925, 0xFFFFFFFFA6E402E4, 0x0)
Error: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M
file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\nv4_disp.dll
product: NVIDIA Windows XP Display driver, Version 285.58
company: NVIDIA Corporation
description: NVIDIA Windows XP Display driver, Version 285.58
Bug check description: This indicates that a kernel-mode program generated an exception which the error handler did not catch.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: nv4_disp.dll (NVIDIA Windows XP Display driver, Version 285.58 , NVIDIA Corporation).
Google query: nv4_disp.dll NVIDIA Corporation KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M


On Tue 10.1.2012 21:02:25 GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini011012-05.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x606BA)
Bugcheck code: 0x4E (0x99, 0x23631, 0x0, 0x0)
Error: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: NT Kernel & System
Bug check description: This indicates that the page frame number (PFN) list is corrupted.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver which cannot be identified at this time.


On Tue 10.1.2012 17:21:48 GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini011012-04.dmp

Bug check description: This indicates that a kernel-mode program generated an exception which the error handler did not catch.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
The crash took place in a standard Microsoft module. Your system configuration may be incorrect. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver on your system which cannot be identified at this time.

Check you r hard drive and your RAM.

Check the hard drive with the manufacturer's diagnostic tools.
Hard Drive Diagnostics Tools and Utilities (Storage) - TACKtech Corp.
Bootable Hard Drive Diagnostics

Download Memtest86+ (you want the 2nd one Download - Pre-Compiled Bootable ISO (.zip)). Unzip it then create a CD from the iso file using your CD burning software. There is a good freeware burner called ImgBurn which will do this easily.

DO NOT burn the .iso file directly to CD. It must be used as input to a program that knows what to do with it, like the one I mentioned above.

Boot the CD and run for at least 3 complete passes unless it shows errors sooner than that.

Tnx for the answer
I'll try this tmw and give feedback...

and I know how to burn ISO

I checked my HDD with Data Lifeguard Diagnostic for Windows v1.24
and it seems OK...
I did this while I was logged in Windows...is it maybe better to do this with boot from CD before system starts??
Later I will do this with boot from CD, probably better then this...

Just tested my RAM

1st pass it was all OK, no errors...
2nd pass there were some errors

here is date that memtest showed

Good: 00000100
Bad: 00000300

Thing to do now would be to try to isolate the RAM stick that is bad. Only keep one in at a time while running memtest

Yes, that's the plan but first i'm going to check HDD again from boot...


And what about this BSoD reports??
they include problems about ESET, NVIDIA driver and Windows

[Ztruker]

If you have defective RAM then errors can popup anywhere. I wouldn't worry about the BSOD reports until after you've isolated and replaced the defective RAM.

From the error addresses, it looks like you have 1GB of ram in two 512MB modules and the error is in the 2nd module. When you look at the system board they are usually counted left to right with the lowest address be to the left.

I also don't think it's necessary to run DLG from a boot disc. Won't hurt but I doubt it will show any more errors than the run under Windows did.

Tnx alot for all this instructions...
I'll check both modules separately to see which one is really broken (probably 2nd one as you say)
Probably going to buy 2x1GB RAM...

Will it be a problem if I buy 800MHz modules 2x1GB, and my motherboard supports max. 667MHz???

[Ztruker]

You need to buy ram that will work. I would recommend going to crucial.com and running the System Scanner. It's below the blue window stuff.

It will tell you exactly what you need. They also sell RAM at very reasonable prices. I buy most (not all) of mine there, probably because I'm lazy.
