    I'm getting random BSOD's on my Asus G53JW, sometimes it just bsods, sometimes its during high HDD usage, I've been searching a lot and have not found anyone else with this issue on a G53...I've read it could be drivers, and maybe even the HDD(Most BSODS are from NTFS.sys)...Maybe if I replace the HDD...

    Already ran memtest.

    Can someone tell me if this can be solved or do I need to RMA it... :(

    What are you doing during these BSODs? General usage? Is there a time when it happens more often, certain types of usage? It could be your HDD, swap it with another, or just go buy a new one and see (HDDs are cheap these days).

    Well, last BSOD happened when Syncing my Ipad 2, others happened downloading applications, but now that I think of it never when playing games...
    I was gonna get an SSD for it, but I want to see if I can fix this issues without having to disassemble it.

    Hey,

    To know more about your BSOD, I urge you to install WhoCrashed.

    ;)

    Thanks, I've never seen this software before...
    I even installed Windbg and have used Windows 7 "verifier", this is way simpler and I hope to solve this issue so I can install an SSD without worry...

    It says something about Atheros and Eset drivers...

    I'll check them, and post back later
