Thread: Windows 8 keeps BSOD when using P2P and surfing net

After 20 hours testing, It seems that the BSODs have gone. I dont know is it just the driver issue or the PSU. I will install back the software that I usually use one by one and test it.

This review from Guru3D states that only a 450W-500W PSU is required so you should be fine on that front:

Sparkle GeForce GTX 650 Ti review - Hardware installation

I feel that a bit of discussion about PSU's is warranted here.
PSU requirements are an estimate.
If you have a bunch of equipment it will take more wattage than if you have very little equipment.

If this is all the equipment that's taking power, then you're probably good if the PSU is performing as rated (many do not) and if it's not damaged or wearing out due to age (a common problem in some posts).

Since I only get 2 fans, 2 hard disk, one dvd drive and GTX650TI video card.

Don't forget that the things on the motherboard will suck up power, as will any plug in cards (both those on the mobo and those in external slots).

But, I feel that if you were using Core Temp, MSI Afterburner and AMD Overdrive - that they were the most likely cause. Should you choose to reintroduce them - please do so one-at-a-time and watch carefully in case the BSOD's return.

Good luck!

Thanks kemical for providing this useful information.

My PSU have been used for about 2years, I do not know it's getting aging or not.
As Sonny suggest that, I cleaned the old flat cable plug which had been 10 years without cleaning. And switched the outlet to plug into. So, Would it be the problem of dirt on the flat cable plug causing BSODs?

Thanks usasma , Your help is more than appreciate
There are no external pci cards on my motherboard. I use on-board sound card and lan card.
I have installed back core temp , Msi afterburner, nod32 and tuneup utilities one by one. and so far so good.
The AMD Overdrive I will not install it back since I don't need to use it.

I will test them for a much longer time and report back the results.

After 3 days of testing, it seems that the BSODs have gone.
I have installed back core temp , Msi afterburner, nod32 , tuneup utilities, and Xunlei (a p2p software) except AMD Overdrive.Everything are working fine.
It's very strange that what were the cause of my previous BSODs?
Should I test it by installed back AMD Overdrive ?XD

The more stuff you put back on, the more likely it is that you will have problems.
I wouldn't take the chance of installing AMD Overdrive. You already have one program that's known to be associated with BSOD's (MSI Afterburner) and one that may be associated with BSOD's (Core Temp). Adding AMD Overdrive is making it to complicated and may cause additional problems!

Good luck!

BSOD Again!!

When I was away from keyboard today for a dinner, BSOD had happened again!
It's so frustrated to see that funny face always appear on my machine!!
Here is the dump:

Your BIOS dates from 2010. Please check at the manufacturer's website to see if there are any BIOS updates available for your system. Also check the readme file to see if they apply to the problems that you are having. Please be advised that flashing the BIOS is a very unforgiving process - and one mistake can physically damage your motherboard.

Please uninstall MSI Afterburner. It's the only suspect 3rd party driver in the dump.

Another less likely possibility is your network driver (Rt630x64.sys). Please try replacing it to see if that helps.

If all of this doesn't stop the BSOD's, please run Driver Verifier according to these instructions: Driver Verifier Settings
