Blue screens of death

It is also possible that the OKIA ATX 650 Watt Power Supply he is using is giving him problems. OKIA doesn't make quality power supplies. But it is also possible that the motherboard is defective.
 
He has tested the voltage under load in the other thread and it was fine, stayed well over 12v under load. Seriously doubt it's the problem.
 
I just replaced the mobo with an upgrade 1 week ago. Still had the same bsod problems as before.

Shouldn't that technical information be able to tell you exactly what the problem is? Is there some kind of handbook that correlates with those codes so that each error can be diagnosed correctly?
 
What in the world. Maybe you should just replace the power supply, it's like the only thing you haven't replaced. Perhaps sometimes the voltage drops for no reason intermittantly causing the BSOD.

Voltage is barely everything, excessive ripple can cause all sorts of issues, although i doubt its the cause for some of these issues, that unit is not going to keep ripple within ATX specs and is going to severely degrade the life of components.
 
Well before I buy a psu I bought an ethernet card. It may be stupid but I just want to try it. Since the blue screens always seem to happen when I do something in firefox, and the errors, when searched on google, come up as some kind of network error, I'm hoping this new card will have different drivers and will maybe fix one or two of the blue screens I keep getting. It may be a long shot but it's really cheap so I figured what the heck lol
 
Durkmusic I would take Bomberboysk advice. Get a quality power supply. He has a lot of experience building and knows his stuff.

A power supply is a very vital part of a system. Cheap power supplies can cause performance issues or burn out and damage your system.
 
Okay, fine. I am sick of these stupid blue screens and will get a new PSU. But what if that doesn't work?

What PSU should I get? I want to spend as little as possible but still make sure I have plenty of power.
