I'm curious why the issues keeps occuring, I would like to suggest some tests
Usually I'd do the opposite, first make sure Windows is up to date, but due to the issues it's time to investigate why the BSOD occurs since they are likely related to the Windows Update issues.
Diagnostics Test
HDD TEST
Note
Run the tests on all hard drives/partitions!
Note
Please run HDTune first, in the order posted!
:ar: Run
HDTune to
- check the health,
- scan for errors, no quick scan but full scan
- run a benchmark.
It may take some time, but please take the time you need to perform it properly.
When above is done please make screenshots of the following
- the health,
- the error scan,
- the benchmark incl. following
- transfer rate,
- access time,
- burst rate,
- cpu usage.
:ar: Run
SeaTools DOS to check the integrity of your HDD.
SeaTools for DOS and Windows - How to Use - Windows 7 Help Forums
Run the long test.
Note
Do not run SeaTools on an SSD as the results will be invalid.
Make a photo of the result and post it.
:ar: Run
chkdsk
Disk Check - Windows 7 Help Forums
Use
option TWO with parameter /r
Upload the chkdsk log :ar:
Check Disk (chkdsk) - Read Event Viewer Log - Windows 7 Help Forums
Run
MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM.
MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums
Note
MemTest86+ needs to be run for
at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for
zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.
Make a photo of the result and post it.
Addition:
If errors show up you can stop the test, remove all sticks but 1 and test this single stick in each slot for 8 passes or until errors show, switch sticks and repeat.
If errors show up and you see them a lot later, no problem, the errors don't affect the test.
