BSOD appearing very often. Need Help urgently!!!

goku1234567890 · May 17, 2013

OK I have Dual Core E2180 and MSI motherboard and i am getting BSOD in every two hour time please help me. I opened a minidump and the caused was written ntkrnlpa.exe please help me how to solve this. If you can tell me how to upload a mnidump i would upload the latest one. Thanks in advance.

Could be caused by bad RAM module(s) or the PSU. Can you verify that each one works properly? If you have two RAM modules, please check them one at a time.

Looks like power setting error. Control panel>hardware & sound>power plan>put the computer to sleep, choose "never"& apply. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/blue-screen-caused-by-ntkrnlpaexe/e671b55e-8cfc-41cf-a686-67524c2fe485

I have checked both RAM's they are not faulty and even tried PSU is not faulty i got it checked.

Maybe you need to apply fresh thermal paste. Get a good paste and apply.
The BSOD's might be caused due to the CPU overheating. The paste ensures better thermal conductivity and helps in cooling.
hope this helps.

goku1234567890 · May 17, 2013

Well i been monitoring CPU temperature and it is hardly at 60 or 70 and i think that's not dangerous is it!!!!

ksham · May 17, 2013

If I may ask, how did you go about testing the RAM modules and PSU?

goku1234567890 · May 17, 2013

I removed one RAM and turn on the PC and it worked then i removed the first one and inserted the second one the PC was working the way it should be then i tried changing the PSU with my older PC and the PC was working fine then too. The problem is i can't identify when or what Application or software or hardware cause this problem.

ksham · May 17, 2013

Test each RAM module a few times. It's not necessarily the case that the entire RAM is dead. When you exchanged the PSU and placed the new PSU in your older PC, it works fine? Under the same load?

What RAM and PSU do you have?

goku1234567890 · May 18, 2013

I have Kingston RAM 1Gb(2 modules) DDR2 and I have FSP 250 Watts Power Supply!!!! Believe i have tried each RAM so many times.

ksham · May 18, 2013

So you have 1GB RAM (2x 512MB)? Do you have a graphics card?

goku1234567890 · May 18, 2013

I have 2GB RAM (2x 1GB). I have Nvidia Geforce 210. It does not have any connection with PSU it just connects to the slot and has it's own fan for cooling. I have even checked GPU for problems, the GPU was fine.

ksham · May 18, 2013

If you remove the GPU, does your computer still BSOD?

goku1234567890 · May 19, 2013

Yeah it still does!!!

ksham · May 19, 2013

This may appear to be a weird test to you. Turn on your computer (log in if you want) and then let it idle. Do NOTHING on it. Will it eventually BSOD?

goku1234567890 · May 19, 2013

Well I have tried to leave it idle but the BSOD doesn't appear. Will the problem occur because of partition. When I installed fresh Windows 7 there were three partitions. I merged E and D and it really got messed up but luckily PC was working. The space didn't merge instead E got in D means if i want to go to E first i have to go to D.

Try opening a large program like Photoshop, a game, any Microsoft Office application, etc. Pick one and open it. Don't open them all. Do it for a while -- close program, open program, close program, etc. See if the computer throws out a BSOD. Basically, I'm trying to see what triggers it. Something you did must have.

goku1234567890 · May 19, 2013

Well i play far cry 3 many times which always take the cpu usage to around 80% to 85% and I will try opening and closing it again!!!

Well I tried and BSOD didn't happened!!! I am confused how can BSOD occur without any clue. I will try installing a fresh Windows.

goku1234567890 · May 20, 2013

OK guys here's an update today my friend asked me to scan my home work to him. I opened to scan the application or HP program and as soon as I clicked "Scan" the BSOD appeared. Maybe thhis will help!!

The_Doctor · May 20, 2013

goku1234567890 :

Right first off repeat the process and see if it BSOD a one of might be down to luck 2 will pretty much prove thats and issue.
Second hows the scanner connected USB?, Wireless?, Firewire?
The Doctor

goku1234567890 · May 20, 2013

OK I tried again after I scanned 2nd time it BSOD again and scanner is connected through USB!!!

The_Doctor · May 20, 2013

goku1234567890 :

Right you got any other intensive usb devices eg printer, external HD that aren't currently plugged in. If so plug one in and try and use it and See if it BSOD's

goku1234567890 · May 21, 2013

Well I tried changing USB slot and scanned again BSOD didn't come. I tried inserting USB, mine and my sister's mobile BSOD didn't happen!!!

ksham · May 21, 2013

Are you using the USB port on the motherboard or on the case? Can you verify if any other USB ports result in a BSOD?

goku1234567890 · May 21, 2013

I am using the USB port on motherboard the one on the back.
