As the title suggests, I have gotten a variety of blue screens in the last few weeks and I'm assuming that it's related to a piece of hardware in my PC. I have gotten various blue screens which denoted the following:
Stop at 0x08E (C00000005, 805BF384, B279CB1C, 00000000),
PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
Stop at 0x04E (000000099, 00000010, 000000001, 00000000),
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA
Stop at 0x50 (B1074723, 00000008, B1074723, 00000000)
And others which have claimed a variety of files from CLASSPNP.sys, ACPI.sys, srv.sys, my audio card and also video card drivers.
I should also mention that I have run chkdsk /f /r, and have not had a chance to test anything after running those, but it completed without any issues.
I generally am pretty knowledgeable when it comes to this sort of thing and can usually figure out what is going wrong where, and what I can do to fix it. With the video and audio drivers, I have downloaded the new ones, uninstalled the old ones with Add/Remove programs and have installed the new ones. I still have seen them referenced in the errors at times. I play various games on the system (one of the most notable is WoW), and have been receiving a general error from the game at times quoting "memory referenced at x could not be (written/read) at y" and their suggestions seems to be that it could be the result of bad memory. I tried testing that out, but it didn't cite any errors and caused blue screens on multiple attempts.
I have also received several blue screens from doing things such as virus/malware scans (though I received some help with this earlier on these and everything seemed to come back clean), playing WoW and randomly blue screening instead of getting an error from the game itself, and I have also had issues booting Windows back up at times following these blue screens, with some of the errors as seen above. This is leading me to believe that it could possibly be the RAM, or the HDD since it seems to be having errors with some of the .sys files on startup on occasion, or even perhaps the motherboard itself is failing and causing the other hardware to have these issues in the first place.
At this point, I am sort of clueless as to where to begin, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I won't get a chance to test whether it is the HDD or the motherboard until I go home from school which will be at the end of the week, but I would like to at least be able to use this PC for schoolwork, etc.
Thanks in advance!
