My computer has recently been crashing to BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) very often.

I looked up the TCPIP.SYS error that came up and saw that I should reinstall my ethernet slot drivers. I tried that but it didn't work.

I have attached the last 6 dmp files from the minidump folder.

I am running windows 7 ultimate.

Help much appreciated!

I need to know if you're using a desktop or a laptop and some specs that might help.

first thing first, do you use your ethernet port often? if not, just disable it under device manager and use other means of internet access unless you're using a desktop.

It's a desktop and it's been overclocked to 4.60GHz.

Its specs are:


Unfortunately to access the internet I do need to use my Ethernet port.

Where is the specs?
Give your computer specs on Brand, windows version, model, motherboard model, RAM as such.

Alternatively you can download this software Speccy, install it and post it's information here. I don't mind either as attachment or zip files.

I need this to find the right driver for you to download although you have tried reinstalling drivers.

Computer is home built.

Windows 7 Ultimate
Intel Core i7 2600K 3.40GHz overclocked at 4.60 GHz
Asus Motherboard - cannot remember which, will get back to you a bit later when I have access to my computer.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot - I've run Speccy but it didn't work but I can give you what it would have:
Intel Core i7 2600K 3.40GHz overclocked at 4.60 GHz
Asus P8P67 Deluxe Motherboard
4GB RAM
OcUK GeForce GTX 570 1280MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

By the way - I have tried updating my ethernet port drivers but they are apparently the best version.

Sorry if you want the speccy file it's attached to this.

Download from HERE

Download the latest one (16.5) from there and installed it. It should solve the problem for your BSOD. If not, you could need to install the previous driver (16.4).

Don't be mistaken for 32-bit and 64-bit. Yours are 64-bit so download the 64-bit driver version.

Thanks for posting speccy although I forgot to tell you to save it as text only since saving with snapshot only reveal your windows version and audio devices...

:(

Didn't work...

I'll work on this somehow and find the solution for you but it'll take time. hope you can wait for my replies...

**Update**

by the way... did you try using other accounts? If not, try create new user account (it doesn't have to be admin or anything, just for testing purpose) and login into that account. See if BSOD still happens...

Still happens :(

Okay try this just to confirm your ethernet card that cause the problem. Simple open 'Device Manager' and disable network drivers, not uninstall. Then just use your computer if the problem still occurs. If this still happen, then something else that cause the problem.

Don't worry, we can do this slowly to pinpoint the problem.

I have attached the last 6 dmp files from the minidump folder.

Help much appreciated!

some of the dmp files are from last year.most if not all refer to network adapter/driver.some web sites i checked suggest a bad network device or bad driver ,you updated the driver and are still having same problem ,i would if it were mine ,i would buy a new adapter ,and try it ,for what they are worth it would be a small price to pay to fix an annoying problem .

files shown to cause problem are these 3 and at least one more that i forgot to write down .
iastor.sys
tcpip.sys
netio.sys

Yeah it still fails with ethernet slots disabled. I have tried updating drivers and reinstalling them etc...didn't work either, so another TCPIP.sys related problem? :(

the same TCPIP.sys BSOD? Maybe it's not related to drivers at all. Did you have any programs that control networking or downloading?

try ro repair your windows 7 system... to clear the dll error and install back the driver... make sure to back up all the important data you have...hope it works....
