Just an update: I did all of the steps to fix the Windows drivers, and I successfully updated the BIOS to the latest version. There was also a new Killer Network driver available for my computer model from MSI's website- I downloaded this, but put everything back the way I had the old one...

Okay so I ran Driver Verifier following those instructions, and managed to trigger a BSOD fairly quickly. The zipped file is attached (031214-52218-01.zip). I don't know if this is normal, but while I was running Driver Verifier, everything seemed to lag. Also, I followed the instructions for...

I had about twenty-four hours of use before I finally got another BSOD. At least it is more stable than it was. I attached another file in case it helps any. The most recent crash is the only pertinent one.

Ah, I see. I had the file name extensions hidden, so I didn't have the option to change the second .exe before. I changed the first back to .exe and the second to .BAD. I also enabled the Atheros stuff. I did that this morning and left it running all day while I was away. When I came back...

I followed all of the instructions above as closely as I could. My progress: In my Startup tab of Task Manager, there is no "KillerNetManager," there is only InstallShield (with the K next to it). I did disable the Install Shield. Also, as before there is still the...

I would like to wait on usasma before making any changes, but I'm desperate, so I'll bite. I looked the MO3v2Driver.sys up and I believe it's apart of my mouse, which is easily disposed of. I uninstalled, unplugged, and deleted that file, just to be thorough. As for the VDIMM, I have no idea...

Thank you so much. I still have persisting crashes, so let's consider this a fresh start then. I'll try to give you a complete picture, hopefully some of this information helps: I recently purchased an MSI GT70 2OD with a few upgrades from a company called HIDevolution (as you can see in my...

I would prefer to swap the adapter, but I'm out of the country so it would be too difficult. I have Killer Network Manager disabled from startup in task manager, but if I look in msinfo32 startup programs, I can still see the file you mentioned. I found a solution in another thread to find the...

Had my first post-Killdisk blue screen.

After much struggle, I finally successfully ran Killdisk. I re-installed Windows 8.1 and manually updated all of the drivers that I could find to the latest ones. I also fixed the Killer Gaming LAN like you suggested. I'm not sure how to set the VDIMM though. I've only used the computer for a...

I will try to run Killdisk this weekend. As you said though, for good measure, I downloaded CPU-Z and attached the images. I wasn't sure about the SPD tab, but I just took a screenshot of every "slot". I hope that is correct.

I followed the instructions to fix the Killer Gaming LAN, which seemed to help some. I left my computer running for nearly an entire day, but another crash did eventually happen. I attached a new file, which also contains the most recent crash. Thank you for your continued support! EDIT: Now...

First, I apologize for the week delay. I hope it is okay to post here rather than starting another thread. I attempted multiple times to run killdisk and could never get it to boot. As an alternative, I sought help from an anti-virus community, and although they determined I didn't have a...

Good news and bad news (I think). Bad news: I attempted multiple times to run Killdisk in DOS, but I could never get it to boot into DOS properly despite following instructions (It could be an error on my part). Anyway, I was determined to somehow do a complete re-installation so I tried doing a...

Thank you for your help! I downloaded Killdisk Pro and I attempted to run it. I encountered an error saying that it cannot write to certain sectors, but if I click abort for those sectors it continues to work. When it was around 96% complete I got another blue screen: HAL_INITIALIZATION FAILED...

Hello, I have a new MSI GT70 2OD, and I've experienced multiple BSODs in the few days that I have had it. It may help to know that I purchased this computer with installments from HDIevolution: HARD DRIVE: Super RAID v2 768GB mSATA SSD (3 x 256GB Plextor M5M mSATA SSD) + 1TB 5400RPM Hard Drive -...
