Unfortunately, enabling drive scan in safe mode with csmi-sas disabled still got me the bsod when running Hwinfo64.

Okay, but is it alright to have just drive scan on and not csmi sas? Would I loose a great feature of Hwinfo64 by doing so?

Okay I'll give that a try. Is it better to have driver scan on and csmi sas support off? Or vice versa?

Could it be possible that my Samsung ssd driver can only be read by the Samsung magician program and that's why Hwinfo64 is bsod'ing when it tries to read said driver? (if Hwinfo64 is truly trying to read my Samsung ssd driver that is). Also, can Hwinfo64 only handle a certain storage size when...

So how does all that relate to my drive scan issue with Hwinfo64? I'm a little confused.

Okay so I just installed crystaldiskinfo and I was able to run it. I just had to start up the program right? Not use a particular feature of the program? Here is a pic showing the results of my test running crystaldiskinfo: http://imgur.com/Lihwddi Also, I checked Samsung Magician and it...

Okay I'll give that a shot. Now I just have to start it up crystaldiskinfo, I don't have to necessarily use the program right?

If it helps, Hwinfo64 BSODs when it's detecting THE S.M.A.R.T sensors.

I'm pretty sure I use the driver that came with the ssd. Maybe if I update my ssd driver it will correct the issue with the driver scan option?

Okay so the culprit is turning on the drive scan (safe mode) safety option.  I turned on EC Support, no bsod. Then I turned on EC Support and GPU I2C Support, no bsod. I am using a Samsung 850 Pro SSD. Could that be why I get a bsod when I enable drive scan (safe mode)? Maybe that option...

Hmmm you're right. Guess I'll go try and report back.

So I just tried turning off the safety options you mentioned and Hwinfo64 actually worked normally not in debug mode ^_^. I guess one or all of those options were affecting the program from running properly. Hwinfo64 actually booted up faster than the first time it worked. I could try switching...

Okay, I'll give that a shot with your previous suggestion.

Yeah I probably don't have to Uninstall it. I just figured it might help to have a clean slate with it. Like clean the  registry associated with it, left over files on my computer of it, etc.

I'll try disabling the safety options. I'll also continue trying to get that debug file regarding this bsod issue. It's just so weird that Hwinfo64 worked fine without being debug mode once the very first time I used it. Are there any steps to fully Uninstall Hwinfo64 just to make sure there...
