Good day all,

Have a major issue! This happens every 5-10 mins even during start-up of windows. It was difficult but I managed to get the files here. Just a note, I looked through most of this forum and I tried my hardest to update every known driver that is listed on Device Manager. If any other info needed, simply ask!

Thanks so much!


If anyone needs more information, please don't hesitate to ask! I know there is some driver that is setting it off and/or program. I tried to pinpoint it but I just don't seem to be getting any luck. Thanks again!

Well I guess nobody was able to help me here, but for anyone with this issue... if you bought something pre-windows 8 and there are no windows 8 drivers, you might have to wait to use that decide until proper drivers are made/updated. I've started the process of elimination to see which driver it is and I think I found it. It was either my intel graphics/ SATA PCI- card/ USB 3.0 PCI express/ tv tuner. Haven't had a blue screen yet. but i will eventually enable one at a time to see whats causing the issue.

I dont know why you were not helped, you seem to have slipped in under the radar. The cause of your BSODs is a driver

Thank you so much, I figured that out after hours of enabling and disabling devices and countless BSOD's! But at least I know I can enable the rest of my drivers. Thank you for the reply, much appreciated!

I had to replace my VIA sata/IDE controller but I'm getting BSOD when i'm not on the computer. so I don't know what can be causing it, unless its my new sata/IDE controller. I attached updated files. Please check and see, thanks.
