Hello!
I have a custom built PC and it has been giving me problems in the the last 6 months with 0x0F4 BSOD. I looked around, I seen a few mentioning it was related to HDD issues but I let it persist a little and eventually the restarts would fail to launch windows 7. But when I pressed "Start windows normally" sometimes it would freeze in the middle of when those colored dots come together to make the windows logo, so I would have to keep restarting or shutdown and power up again until it went through to my desktop.
I wiped it a couple times and every time I wipe it, within a week it blue screens again and the first blue screen after the new wipe, it would be slow and unresponsive, especially when I open the Internet browser. So I got another HDD and the new one is not the problem because I am still getting that same code and the same symptoms after the first blue screen.
My first HDD doesn't launch anymore no matter how many times I restart and when I do press start windows normally, it does the windows logo but never goes to login, it bluescreens after the logo with a 0x0ED, I HAVE to wipe it but right now I'm using my replacement HDD. I'm thinking the motherboard is bad but I want to be sure because I am actually trying to sell this computer and I want to have this solved before I do that.
I have swapped the RAM out to the two other slots, I have switched SATA cables and power cables, and have taken the CMOS battery out and back in.

Any help thanks. Also, I have installed "Bluescreen View" so next time I will have the dump files to upload when it happens.
