hi guys So my last mother board died on my so i have replaced the mother board and cpu. However it now is really unstable, as in it keeps blue screening witch is really not good. Are there any tools or ways of fixing this? i can imagine there being a windows file validate check or some other sort of diagnostic witch could come up with something. i thought i had fixed it but it is still blue screening. so i have run out of ideas of what to do. the error messages on the blue screen is always different. i cant see anything triggering it. it seams to be random. I have: I7 3770k Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H assus Direct cu II geforce 570 8 gb mushkin ram running on windows 7 pro 64 bit all help would be much aprreshiated. thanks Dan
Check your memory as you've replaced your motherboard and CPU, are you using all your ram slots, like mine some motherboards become unstable when using all slots. run SFC /SCANNOW to check for corrupted system files.
thanks. yeah i am useing all the slots. so maybe that's why. i will have to try with some removed. i have never heard of SFC /SCANNOW so will google that now. thanks for the help though
so its come up with this. witch am amusing is bad... XD Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
I would boot into the repair system from the CD then, so the windows isn't running. I didn't ask, have you reinstalled Windows after changing the motherboard and CPU?
ok thanks. i don't know why i didn't think of that. it seams fairly obviouse thinking now. thanks. yeah i reinstalled windows, i had a lot of issues wist doing so though. mostly revolving around only having usb 3 ports on my motherboard but that could be why.
