Hey guys

I have a bluescreen problem. The PC was on all night cos I was downloading something. When I restarted it in the morning it got stuck before the POST. It stayed at the Asus express gate screen. When i cut the PSU power completely and restarted i could log in for 2 seconds and I would get a bluescreen. The Safe Mode works so I guess it might not be a hardware problem after all. I tested the memory with MemTest and it passed. Testing the HDD now. What should I do next? Viruses?
 
0x0000000be (0xC00000005, 0x82444157, 0x9DDDC91C, 0x0000000 is as far as I got

EDIT: The HDD is fine just tested it. This means it's probably a software issue :/

EDIT2: I can only get as far as the logging in screen at which point the BS comes up. If you can identify the type of BS for me I can probably get on with it myself.

EDIT3: Viruses? I'm off to do a scan in Safe Mode with AVG, Spybot and Malwarebytes. Anything else before I leave it overnight?

If you get into safe mode OK but crash after logging in normally then something is trying to run and crashing you out. Go into msconfig in Safe Mode and stop everything running at startup, you can also search the registry for the RunOnce entry and check the Run, RunOnce and RunServices entries and stop programs running at startup.

Can you also go into the Event Viewer in Safe Mode and get the error details there. There should also be dump files from the Stop Errors somewhere on the drive.
 
Ok biasicly it shows the BS even BEFORE I log on. i tried disabling all the startup items in MSconfig but obviously that is useless in this case - BS still appears. Also I can't access the Event Viewer in Safe mode. What now? Corrupt system? Formatting?
 
What error do you get when launching the Event Viewer in Safe Mode? Did you check the %SystemRoot%\Minidump folder for the dump files to see if the full stop messages have been written? If that fails I feel a backup of data and reinstall may be in order, could be any number of files, services or drivers trying to load that have got corrupt and causing BSOD, without more details don;t know how we can tell. One other thing if you have not already done it disconnect all external peripherals like printers, scanners, cameras, USB sticks, etc.
 
"Insufficent system resources exist to complete the requested service" - I get that when opening nearly everything. Can;t even check the %SystemRoot%\Minidump because of it.

Too much hassle I think i will backup and reinstall. Thanks anyway :)
