After i reinstalled windows 7 ultimate (zh-tw language version) on my new Samsung SSD 470 series 128GB drive (I tested my hard drive with microsoft built-in tester)I have got 2 BSODs in the first day. However, today i got almost 10 already...

The blue screens happen almost totally randomly (After i log in windows; Sometimes few hours sometimes real quick), except sometimes (have 3-4 times already) it occurs AS i shut down my pc (But i dont even get to see the blue screen and my comp shuts off already, but when i boot back up and get into windows i'll see the log and error msg notification).

All the BSOD is EXACT same error/BSOD/STOP or w/e they should be called

-Tested harddrive with microsoft windows drive test program thing
-ran memtest on my ram for 10 passes
-Tried fixing with registery booster...( think it made things worse, so i used the backups i made and restored everything)
-I have installed every driver i know i should for my hardware
-read a bunch of threads about hal.dll

Thanks in advance.

Easy to Hard:

1) Check your Hard Disk settings in the BIOS and make sure 32 bit Disk Access is enabled in the BIOS. Might also be labeled "High Speed Access" or "Advanced Configuration", etc.
Update BIOS if you haven't already.

2) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952681

"This issue occurs because resource rebalancing is triggered after you hot plug a PCI device. During the rebalancing process, the system does not configure the Max Payload Size value correctly on the root port of the PCI Express bus. The incorrect value causes a mismatch between the root port of the PCI Express bus and the device on the PCI Express bus. Therefore, the operating system triggers a Machine Check Architecture (MCA) exception, and the operating system returns a “0x00000124” exception."

That was for vista -- but it might be worth trying to remove your PCI-E Cards (minus the Video) and see if it fixes it.

3) Some people have been saying it points to the processor -- Not exactly a dream come true. I'd try the first two options and hopefully that fixes it. I'm going to continue to research it just in case.

Thanks, im going to try them

[bigfatlp]

found out my Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller driver was not up to date,,, updated it but still getting BSODs

and i cant find it in bios "1) Check your Hard Disk settings in the BIOS and make sure 32 bit Disk Access is enabled in the BIOS. Might also be labeled "High Speed Access" or "Advanced Configuration", etc."

figuring updating my bios

More information for you on the error...it could be quite a few things.

For your BIOS check the computer manufacturers website and see if they have any updates for it.

[bigfatlp]

thanks again, reading that up

[bigfatlp]

atm... its 100% happening when i shut down/restart my computer. ~~~

[Spence2020]

If you bring up Msconfig in your start/run line and click on the second tab "Boot". This works for Vista and Windows 7.

Click on the "Advanced Options" button and a new screen appears.

Where it reads "Number of processors" check that box and pick the number of
processors you have to match your CPU. A duo/dual core has 2, a quad core has
4... Apply and Reboot!

- Just found this on microsoft forum -- It doesn't actually work the way the person imagined it did, but it is a possibility. Fair warning though - changing this setting can leave the computer unbootable. You might also want to scale it down to 2 or 1 cores if you have a quad core to see if maybe one of them is defunct. Again I have no idea how this will work or if it might...but they are saying its been successful in fixing the error.

[bigfatlp]

thanks, i'll give that a try also.

update: i unclocked my cpu, havent got a blue screen today so far. (AMD Phenom X4 965 Black Edition stock 3.4ghz 8mb cache --> clocked to a easy 4GHZ; before i installed the ssd and reinstalled win7 onto it, i was using the clocked cpu for ~3months without a single blue screen)

[bigfatlp]

update: although i didnt get bsods the entire day,,, i just restarted my comp doing the msconfig core option fix, and restarted my comp 2 times; i still got BSODs at shutdown~~

testing in windows normal usuage now~ with unclocked cpu + msconfig core option fix thing
