Unfortunately it was rather unusable after the previous installations.
The 1st serious problem I ran into was running the SF Diagnostic Tool.
Initially I was unable to find the generated info, or to be able to click the OK button.
I have 1 system error left, and I am open to suggestions as whether no to care, or where to look for appropriate suggestions.
Apart from UEFI etc there are no installation choices I have made (so far).
Looking for solutions I found that people increased their page file.
I did that, but the problem remained, and even worse,the Win8 startup time and shutdown time increased both considerably.
I intend to reduce the page file again, but have not done so yet.
The error message is only displayed during a cold or warm (reboot) startup.
Yet not another earth mapHow to solve 2. How to test that dumping indeed does not work Kind regards, and thanks in advance, Hans Lodder.
Ive been doing BSOD analysis for at least 9 years and have come to the conclusion that this type of error isnt very important to most people.
It is frustrating to those of us who do BSOD analysis - but its, quite frankly, just not worth the effort to troubleshoot (because BSODs are infrequent for most people - and we usually dont have the time to troubleshoot this when someones in the middle of their system crashing).

FWIW - you can test it by setting the system up to manually generate a crash dump and seeing if a dump file is generated.
Please run Hard Drive diagnostics on ALL of your hard drives.
Heres a procedure and links: Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure There arent many more clues as to why the system is shutting down.
Id suggest using a temperature monitoring utility such as this free one: HWiNFO, HWiNFO32 HWiNFO64 - Hardware Information and Analysis Tools And Id suggest running the rest of these diagnostics: Hardware Diagnostics Good luck.

Gonna switch to a 720010000 rpm or an SSD (if I can find 500 for a 1tB SSD) - Switched to 500 gB Samsung 840 series SSD - WOW.
Microsoft Natural - the same one Ive used since it orignally came out around 1995.
I will execute all your suggestions and post the results in this thread.
This might tske a copuple of days, because currently I am traveling a bit.
