SOLVED: random bsod's.
hello everyone!
back in july i built my first pc (hurray) and experienced no problems, but more recently since september maybe i keep arbitrarily experiencing lockups and bsod's (even the bsod's lockup sometimes). they appear to be occurring more frequently now which is obviously a problem, so i was hoping you could help me stop them.
specs:
win7 home premium 64-bit
intel i5-2500k
p8z77-v lx
xfx radeon 6870
x2 2gb corsair vengeance 1600mhz
64gb samsung 830 ssd primary drive
750gb sata-ii 7200rpm secondary drive
corsair gs600 psu
here is a link to my dump file. i ran memtest to see if it was my ram derping up but the test showed fine results, and it doesn't crash when i'm playing games on the highest settings (only if i'm browsing tumblr or whatever) so i kind of doubt it's the gpu. i disabled hardware acceleration in both mozilla nightly and flash to be sure, though.
hopefully it's an easily fixable problem like downgrading drivers. i read somewhere that it could be a power shortage due to having more than 9 screw supporting the mobo or something, or that it could be from having the front panel audio set to hd.
anyway, any and all help is very much appreciated. if you'd like me to post more information, please ask.
edit: just crashed on me again. i went through the bios and changed the front panel from hd>ac97. another thing i forgot to mention is that whenever it crashes, it'll struggle to start back up again (in that it'll start up, turn itself off, start up, turn itself off, and then start up properly) but that didn't happen when i changed it to ac97 so hopefully it's working now.
here's the second minidump.
