Can anyone help with my dilemma? my computer started getting the BSOD (blue screen of death) and crashing, and in the small window of time I have to read the error message before the computer shuts down completely, it says something about "tcpip.sys"....I am led to believe this is corrupted, and would love for someone to officially diagnose this and recommend a solution. My computer is a month old

Thank you so much!

I would like you to check the system integrity of your Windows OS installation.

  • Please right click the Windows logo (formerly the start button) at the bottom left of your screen.
  • Please select  "Command Prompt (Admin)"
  • Please type the following command and press the <Enter> key: sfc /scannow  (Please note that there is a space between 'sfc" and "/scannow".)
  • It should take about 20 minutes to run, if there are no serious errors.
  • If the System File Checker reports that some errors were fixed, but some remain; please reboot your computer and run the System File Checker from an Administrator Command Prompt, again.
  • If the System File Checker again reports that some errors were fixed, but some remain, please reboot your computer and run it a third time.
  • If "Resource Integrity Violations" (errors) are reported that could not be corrected, or were not corrected after a third SFC run, then please navigate to the folder: C:\Windows\Logs\CBS and copy the file "cbs.log" to your desktop immediately.  I am asking you do that because that file is dynamic, so I want to be able to examine a copy that is unchanged from the time that the System File Checker was run.
  • If there are errors that couldn't be corrected, let me know and I will provide you with instructions as to how to upload the file

 

 

 

Upload Dump Files:
    NOTE:  If using a disk cleaning utility, please stop using it while we are troubleshooting your issues.
    Please go to C:\Windows\Minidump and zip up the contents of the folder.  Then upload/attach the .zip file with your next post.
    Left click on the first minidump file.
    Hold down the "Shift" key and left click on the last minidump file.
    Right click on the blue highlighted area and select "Send to"
    Select "Compressed (zipped) folder" and note where the folder is saved.
    Upload that .zip file with your next post.

    If you have issues with "Access Denied" errors, try copying the files to your desktop and zipping them up from there.  If it still won't let you zip them up, post back for further advice.

    If you don't have anything in that folder, please check in C:\Windows for a file named MEMORY.DMP.  If you find it, zip it up and upload it to a free file hosting service.  Then post the link to it in your topic so that we can download it.

    Also, search your entire hard drive for files ending in .dmp, .mdmp, and .hdmp.  Zip up any that you find and upload them with your next post.

    Then, follow the directions here to set your system for Minidumps (much smaller than the MEMORY.DMP file):  http://www.carrona.org/setmini.html
    More info on dump file options here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/254649

 

 

 

Please visit your computer manufacturer website and install latest versions of the device drivers. Make sure to install latest network card driver.

It's hard to tell with only 1 current memory dump in the uploads.

If using a disk cleaner (such as CCleaner), please stop while we're troubleshooting.

Install all Windows updates.

Get ALL available, compatible updates for your OS from the manufacturer's website (to include BIOS/UEFI).

Get ALL available, compatible updates for the programs and any additional hardware installed on your computer from the developer's website.

Install latest version of network card driver if you have already have latest version of the network card driver install previous version of the network card driver to test if BSOD caused by latest version of network card driver.

If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved.

Start with these free hardware diagnostics:

 

  • Use SpeedFan to monitor temperatures in computers, overheating can cause BSOD.

  • Use Memtest86+ disc to check system memory's (RAM's) for errors.

  • Use HDD Diagnostic Tool  to check SMART health report of the hard disk drive (HDD).

  • Use Prime95 to stress test your CPU.

  • Use 3DMark to stress test your GPU

 

If all of the hardware tests pass, then run Driver Verifier according to these instructions: https://www.dost-tec...c.php?f=38&t=11
