its a new build. and this is the 1st time with this motherboard. i was having problems before so sent it back for another one.
 
...and the BSOD happened just once?
If so, I wouldn't worry much about it.
In any case, it's basically impossible and it may be misleading, if we try to diagnose any problem with one BSOD.
 
before i sent my motherboard back in i was getting alot of bsod's and i couldnt figure it out. my hdd was making all these loud ticking sound and after doing some reading i found that some people where having problems with the SATA controller so i sent my board in for a new one. it has been running great for about a week and then last night it gave me the blue screen. that said it was my usb3.0 and i have this old usb hug plugged into my usb 3.0 could that be what was causing it?

Could be, but as I said do NOT assume anything from one BSOD.
Give it couple more days and keep us posted.
