Hi All,
My sons new build has been having BSODs today.
I have had this running for a few hours prior with no problems then today after actually gifting it BAM ! (sods law)
First off about 2mins after start up the pc was shutting down...I removed the keyboard and mouse from the front USB 3.0 headers ( I let him set it up and he decided to plug them in there ? ) and used USB 2.0 on the back panel.
All was ok until later on, getting random BSODs - noticed he now has his Turtle Beach headset plugged into the front panel USB 3.0.
I have just plugged them into the rear panel also and await the results.
At this point I should mention that he was getting a lot of interference noise through the headset ( he told me afterwards ).
I have recently installed a ASUS 6670 1GB DDR3 GPU and will be removing it
if more troubleshooting is required.
It currently sits in the PCI x16 slot - would changing it to the PCI express x4 slot help as it's an older card ?
Also - Smart Doctor runs on startup (can't turn it off) and doesn't recognise the GPU although I installed it from the disk that came with the GPU.
If anyone like to chime in with some advice it would be greatly appreciated !
A10 6800K (no OC)
Gigabyte F2A88XM-D3H (Bios F1)
Avexir core gold 2 x 4GB @ 2133 (set XMP)
Corsair CX500 80+ Bronze PSU
Xigmatec Alfar case
Windows 7 pro (64 bit) .
