Hello, I run a custom built computer and this mainly happens when playing games or rendering video files. I have no idea what is causing it and I tried many different ways of fixing it. New video card drives, Memory tests, Chkdsks. Nothing worked. I'm going to post my zip file. Could anyone take a look at it and tell me what's wrong? I want this problem gone.
 

My Computer

System One

  • OS
    Windows 8.1
You have 4 or 5 hard drives. What is the make/model/wattage and age of your Power Supply?

The last 6 memory dumps are all STOP 0x124 errors. These are errors that the CPU reports to Windows.
The information they provide is all about how the error affected the CPU - so most times they're not really useful.
But sometimes we can coax a bit of information out that'll help us track down the culprit.

Interestingly, you have a USB wireless driver in the memory dump, but that device doesn't seem to be present on the system. Did you have one of these devices and have you removed it? If so, please also uninstall the software that came with it - as these devices are known to cause BSOD's on some Windows systems.
It was present in the latest memory dump, so you may have successfully uninstalled it.

Also, please uninstall the Western Digital software, as the wdcsam64.sys driver dates from 2008 and is known to cause BSOD's on some Windows systems.

You may be using an outdated version of some Acronis software, please be sure that it's Win8.1 compatible.

Please update these older drivers. Links are included to assist in looking up the source of the drivers. If unable to find an update, please remove (un-install) the program responsible for that driver. DO NOT manually delete/rename the driver as it may make the system unbootable! :

ElgatoGC658.sys Wed Nov 9 02:39:12 2011 (4EBA2E20)
Elgato Game Capture device
ElgatoGC658.sys - this driver hasn't been added to the DRT as of this run. Please search Google/Bing for the driver if additional information is needed.

Please note the drivers below that date from before the release of Windows 8.1 (17 Oct 2013) - check to see that each and every one is compatible w/Windows 8.1 (at the manufacturer's website). If not, you must either remove the device and it's software - or locate a Windows 8.1 compatible update on the web. Removing some drivers may make the system unstable - so if you're unable to find updates, post back for info on the one's that can/cannot be safely removed.

The drivers that are [DEL]struckout[/DEL] don't have updates available (AFAIK).
DO NOT delete them, just leave them be.

If all of this doesn't stop the BSOD's, please run these free hardware diagnostics: Hardware Diagnostics. Let us know the results and we can move on from there.

This is the exact power supply I have. CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 SLI CrossFire 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply New 4th Gen CPU Certified Haswell Ready - Newegg.com

I have updated my video drivers for Nvidia again to the latest ones available. I also updated the firmware on my portable Western Digital Hard drive. I removed the 1 TB HDD from my system and replaced the 320 GB with a new 3 TB HDD. Now I only have the 250 GB SSD, a 3 TB HDD, and the SSHybrid drive. The portable one was attached to my system during the BSODs.

As for the drivers I should remove... I can't find any of those on my system. The Elgato one, however, I need to keep to record with the Elgato. There's no new updates for it and it works just fine.

Though, I also have since changed my fans around and reduced the temperature the CPU gets to I believe as well as put on new thermal paste. When I installed the new Graphics card a while back, I had to remove the fans to get in my case a bit better. I put them back in the wrong way and essentially.. air was only being sucked in. The heat is blown out the top now though.

These BSODs only happened when I would be recording a game or rendering a video file in Sony Vegas. I have since rendered many files without issue. I still need to try recording a game though. Could my BSOD have been caused by it heating up too much?

While it's possible that the BSOD's are caused by overheating, I don't think that the other issues have been resolved as of yet.
1) You need to test the system to see if it stops BSOD'ing with the external driver removed.
2) You need to test the system to see if it stops BSOD'ing without the game recording. Then, if it does continue to BSOD, we need to look at the BSOD's and see if the Elgato stuff is still in the memory dump. If it is, then a test without the Elgato stuff would probably be indicated.

Also, monitor your system's temperatures with this free tool: HWMonitor CPUID - System & hardware benchmark, monitoring, reporting
Normally temps shouldn't exceed:
CPU - 60ºC
GPU - 80ºC
HDD and other components - 40ºC
