    My Tower has recently begun BSODs about once a day... dunno why.
    I've run chkdsk and all drives are fine.

    looking in the add remove programs, it appears I have 2 usb 3 drivers:


    System Specs:
    AMD A8-3870 APU with Radeon HD graphics
    8Gb memory
    64Gb SSD (boot drive and major software installs)
    Regular 7200 drive for files.
    Sound Blaster X-FI
    web cams.

    ok... whilst typing this I have been suggested to run "BlueScreenView"
    so the output of one BSOD it found is:

    well if you think the disks are ok, have you scanned for malware, use malwarebytes anti malware, if it finds nothing with a normal scan or wont install/run, try chameleon mode

    make sure you turn on full memory dumps

    Click Start, and then click Run.
    Type control sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    On the Advanced tab, in the Startup and Recovery section, click Settings.
    In the Write debugging information list, click Complete memory dump
    Click OK to close the System Properties dialog box.

    wait for BSOD to happen, then reboot, and grab the dump file and load it into WinDBG and do !analyse -v

    and put the output here.

    (or upload it here http://www.osronline.com/page.cfm?name=analyze but be aware your passwords etc will be in that memory dump somewhere)

    Thats normally a RAM fault. Make sure you are running the correct voltages and speeds.

    Tested all hardware... All report fine.

    Gonna create a bootable USB windows 7 installer, and run the repair install...
    Unless there is anything else to try?

    I think it's a software issue.

    Gone through and rolled back drivers to no success as well.
