HDD may have bad sectors. Try refitting tge RAM and see if it helps.
And post your full config :)

BSOD appear for many reasons..check your RAM slot, look the capacitors carefully.

There are a no. of reasons why BSODs occur
Id suggest you do the following:-
When the BSOD occurs, note down the error code and the file that caused it.. It should be a .sys file
When the computer restarts, post the error report to microsoft.. Mostly it fails but sometimes it can determine the cause of the BSOD (Like PXEngine failure etc)
Post the error code here and google it to get more info..
Also download coretemp and see the temperature of your CPU.. If it is above normal, you need to remount the heatsink
Lastly, run a memtest on your RAM
Hope it helps

I checked hdd for bad sectors few days ago, there wasnt any. Also my hdd is making weird noises.

My system crashes in 10 secs and in safe mode its not allowing me to connect my datacard, helpless here.

Open the cabinet reseat and reconnect everything. Boot and check. Get a friend's HDD connect and check for BSODs.

Try to change the RAM..if you have 2 piece...
run with only 1 and if the same thing happen again try the other one..
(firstly use the single stick in two slots then pick the second RAM to test in the same way)

okay will try this later tonight and post the results

Cleaned while cabinet.... Changed the RAMs in their slots but no change... My system is still crashing.

I guess Something is wrong with my hdd... Its making weird noises... Like its trying to start but failing. And its also making that clicking sound. But i checked my hdd with seagate tools last week it was normal...

if possible check the SMART staus of HDD and it may be due to faulty PSU for which HDD is not getting enough power hence the spindle is not spinning properly.

Dec 19, 2012 at 8:22 AM
Sorry but never done it before, how to check SMART status of hdd?

if you can boot into windows use softwares like HDtune, CrystalDisk etc. - if you can't boot into windows use seatools bootable version.

Done... Hdd passed the test. :-(

but the ticking sound indicates that the spindle inside of the HDD is getting stuck - may be it's due to HDD malfunction or bad PSu, power cable, sata cable or sata port - if possible make sure these are OK.

I Guess bad psu is the main problem.... Will change it in somedays and see if it solves the problem

Post the BSOD code to get appropriate help. Without the code, nothing can be said, other than assuming one thing after another.

Incase the computer automatically restarts, right click My computer, Go to Properties, Advanced System Settings, Under Startup and Recovery - Click Settings and Uncheck Automatically Restart

Next time error occurs, note down the error code and any associated .sys files with it.. and then post it here
B
Dec 22, 2012 at 7:21 PM
Google search for error code ends in nothing. Cant post the pic here as pics are in my ipod and no image sharing site has option for photo upload from ipods.

I'm repeating, i cant access anything in os as the system crashes in few seconds.

Also there is no .sys file in bsod, just an error code.

this usually indicates some sort of registry issue - try repairing your OS install or else just format the OS install partition and install a fresh copy of the OS.

I reinstalled the os for 2nd time last week after similar kind of issue. Thats the reason i posted here else everyone knows if nothing works , reinstalling os is the first thing to do.

P.s.: damn this auto correct

Do you, by any chance using a pirated OS from a disk where all the installation may not be present and thereby creating this problem?

not everyone for sure ;-)

anyway, when you are asking for a issue to be fixed you better provide all the necessary details on the first post itself like pc cnfig, any recent hardware/software change, what have you done so far to fix the issue etc. - it makes solving the issue more efficiently.

Nah i made a new copy out of an .iso which worked perfectly in past. So i guess os disk is is alright.

@topgear roger that sir, actually i come online through my ipod, so it is bit mess to write up long posts. Will mind in future.

One last question,which one should i buy? corsair, seasonic or xfx? Also is there any service issue for seasonic and

If corsair, is gs600 enough for Crossfire setup of two 5770s???

Dec 25, 2012 at 3:54 AM
please don't call me "Sir" ;-)

anyway, stick with Corsair for PSu and yes, GS600 is more than enough ( depending on the cpu and how much you OCed though ) for 2x HD5770 in CF mode.

Have u checked ur CPU temperatures ? If not see if it is over 65 C
B
Dec 25, 2012 at 10:50 AM
Nah cpu temp was below 50 last time i checked, around diwali. And with the normal temp as low as 11 degree in my city, i dont think there is any kind of overheating problem.

@topgear thanx for the suggestion, but answer me about seasonic and corsiar. Actually i'm getting a gs600 for 2700 used excellent condition, and another seasonic 620w for 3500rs, both used for six months. Which one to take?

Only problem with gs600 is that i found it on olx, the guy is in kolkatta, i dont have anyone there, and the guy is nowhere on any forum, i am hesitating in directly transfering amount.

Seasonic PSU RMA just takes too much time but if you can't trust the seller then don't go for the deal. At 3.5k plus 200 bucks you can get a new Corsair CX600v2 but adding 1k to 3.5k gives you a brand new GS600.

What is your system config ? Its easier to suggest something if its visible (like in the signature).
Better and safer to pick a new psu. You dont know what might be wrong in a second hand item, unless of course you find a reliable seller.
