Blue Screen of Death
Hi, I've just bought a new system and have been having problems with it from the start. First i used to get BSOD nv4_disp.dll problems while playing BF2, after installing everything from scratch and installing the lastest Chipset and GPU drivers the problem went away for a couple of days. Now while just surfing the net i get BSOD MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION error atleast 4/5 times a day. What tests can i run to see whats causing the errors, to see if its software or hardware related. This used to be the nv4_disp.dll error page... "The problem seems to be caused by the following file: nv4_disp.dll The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually indicates problem with the device itself or with the device driver programming the hardware correctly. The techincal information: ***STOP: 0x000000EA (0x89C184FD, 0x89188C78, 0xBACDBCBC, 0x00000001)" OR "Technical Information: ***STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xBFA96D75, 0xB3FBBC40, 0xB3FBB93C) ***nv4_disp.dll - Address BFA96D75 base BF9D4000, Datestamp 437518bb" This is the new BSOD error... "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION Technical Information: ***STOP: 0x0000009C (0x00000004, 0x8054D5F0, 0xB2000000, 0x00070F0F)" System info AMD64 Dual Core 4200 ASUS A8N-SLI 2GB Cosair RAM 300GB Maxtor SATA HD Nvidia GeForce 256MB 7800 GTX WindowsXP Pro SP2 x32bit -- ssin78 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ssin78's Profile: http://www.64bit-world.com/forums/member.php?u=1719 View this thread: http://www.64bit-world.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=13247 |

Memory speed is controlled in the BIOS. However before you start to play with the memory settings run Memtest86+ (not the +, there are two versions the + version has a better understanding of A64 systems). http://www.memtest.org/ |

The first time it ran it got stuck before the blue test screen! At the second attempt, in the 2 hrs and 40 mins i got 3 passes and 0 errors, does that mean my memory is ok? -- ssin78 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ssin78's Profile: http://www.64bit-world.com/forums/member.php?u=1719 View this thread: http://www.64bit-world.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=13247 |
