I'm getting bsod and don't know why

[P3nnyw1se]

I've been at my computer for 20 hours and I'm about to throw it away..

so yesterday I bought an Intel 520, 120gb SSD, I took out my regular harddrive put in the SSD which showed up as it was suppose to, and I installed Win7 Home Premium on it..

Here are my current specs:

AMD Athlon Phenom II x4 3.2ghz black edition
X-FI soundcard something
DFI lanParty DK 790FXB-M3H5 motherboard
4x2gh DDR3

this is where happiness turns into 20 hours of crying and screaming..

as expected Win7 found 80 something updates, and everything started out fine, I even experienced the improved speed of SSD but then at update 51, can't remember which but KB21045 something it stalls, for 50-60 minutes it just can't seem to finish that update, only result was to reboot
alright weird.. so I didn't want a faulty win7 on my machine so I formatted the drive and installed again, and went back to windows update
this time while updating I get a BSOD, saying "an error has occured that has forced your computer to shutdown"
and then it suggest I do 'silly' things like uninstall Antivirus which I of course don't even have as its a fresh install..

When I try to install updates, like e.g. tried to install Framework Net4, it freezes and gives me a BSOD..
I'm actually writing from that computer right now, from a half broken windows that refuses to update anything, but gives me constant freezes and BSOD.

-----------------------------------------
So what have I already tried?

*I did the memory test during startup, and it said my memory was fine..
*I downloaded the latest firmware for the SSD I bought and made sure I had the same version, which i do
*I assume my windows DVD is fine as I used it on a laptop before, and it installed the entire thing without it complaining.
-----------------------------------------

I have no idea if I have a faulty BIOS, if my windows is broken or my memory stick isn't working.. I have no idea what is wrong,
I need help to move me closer as to what is the problem.. I need someone to tell me "if you do this and this, then I can tell you for sure the DVD is working fine, or your memory is fine"
so I can figure out what the problem is..

Welcome to cybertech, let's see if we can't figure out what exactly is causing the BSOD's.
DL and run whocrashed, this will run through your memory dumps from the bsod's and tell you what's causing them (provided you haven't turned off the memory dump option).


You might also look into whether that drive needs a firmware update or not. (seems there is one available).
