Hi everyone, for the past few days i have been getting a series of blue screens they are all 0x000000f4 all caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe except 1 which is win32k.sys. Todays bsod started off with a 0x0000007a which was new.
Usually the first bsod everyday is after around 2 hours and the 2nd and 3rd are about 2 min after reset.
I have runned memtest86 and memtest and tested each stick of ram with atleast 2 hours of blend test on prime95.
Could this be a Hard Drive problem? i am using a Seagate 1 tb hybrid which when in use and on startup makes a popping noise? i have runned crystaldisk, seatools and chkdsk which all come back clean? also after the bsod the startups are really slow and often stops on the motherboard screen where u enter the bios.
Edit: Seems though that for 2 days the pc would bsod 3 times and then work fine(first time after a couple of hours and 2nd and 3rd after startup? i am not sure though
Thanks
