Default [Pending] Bsod

Hi, i am not sure if this is the correct place for this but i have been having some great trouble with random bsod.

there is no driver name in the stop message, i have had the HDD and the Memory replaced already so they are out of the question, my bios is updated to the latest version, just to get them out of the way lol

now i am no professional when it comes to debugging but i cant help the number of times that
ntkrpamp.exe is appearing, i will attatch my minidump files if that is any help to anyone, i just hope that someone can help me find out what is wrong with this, thanks for the help guys

Hi bagofcrap24!

Most of these BSOD's are being caused by a running process called "StarWindService", normally used by Alcohol 120%.

i do believe you may have something there because i do run alcohol 120% and i am having some trouble with the program.
when i load it it says,

"loading alcohol device drivers failed. Emulation options and native driver interface of Alcohol 120% will not be available!"

i will try uninstalling the program and see if these messages continue, thank you for the help.

well it lasted about 2hours before it blue screened again,
i deleted Alcohol 120 and the Starwind service is no longer running

it gives the same stop code every time


0x1000008e

i have attatched the most recent minidump because this may reveal something new.

Thank you for your Time

Hi bag, the last dump points to 1 of 2 possibilities.

1) Problem with "awmon2", normally used by a program called Avast.
2) Faulty RAM. But I think I remember reading in a previous post, that you did a memtest on your memory, and everything was OK?
