Alienware Model M17X

There has seemingly been no rhyme or reason for when the BSoD occurs. BSoD appears randomly every 30 seconds to as long as two minutes regardless of what is occurring on screen, or if it is even being used. Attempting to reformat has not solved the issue. I can no longer pass the setup screen in order to provide additional specs, but it runs Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.

Can anyone make sense of the codes I am shown? Thank you for your help!

Update: Thanks, guys! I will try doing a clean wipe in the morning. If that fails I'll look into hard drive replacement. If anyone has any further suggestions feel free to pitch in, this baby is about five years old and well out of warranty!

Second edit: I've wiped the drive and did a clean install, BSoDs are still just as consistent. Hard drive it is, then.

Please note: If the laptop is still under warranty, you shoudl contact the manufacturer about a repair and/or replacement.

You are going to need a Windows 7 CD/DVD, USB or a Windows 7 Repair Disc to fix the problem. If you don't have one yourself, check with those you know who might have one you can borrow.

NOTE: You are going to want to make sure you make copies of your personal data (if you can get to it) before doing this, or all could be lost. It is also possible that even after reinstalling the system and/or repairing it, that the hard drive need to be replaced.

I've been doing this forever and I never, not a single time have tried to decipher a BSOD. To me, BSOD are software not playing nice with each other, so vendor#1 and vendor#2 are pointing fingers at each other and I ain't got no time to play the middleman. I just reload my last known-to-be-Good OS image backup and re-start from there.

If this is happening to a brand new machine then indeed you should return it.
