    after the OS is restarted it shown BSOD Code as i mentioned above.

    I tried to install up-to-date drivers and clean my fans, check the HDD and RAM but it not help anything.

    I also attached the zip file of BSOD dumping and Perfmon.html (all in zip file) as the instruction said.

    From the debug result you can see that Windows has pointed to atikmdag.sys as the root of the problem. atikmdag.sys is an ATI system driver component for Windows, in other words it's part of your ATI video card display drivers, and that's where the problem is coming from.

    A few questions before attempting to resolve the issue:

    Is your CPU overclocked?
    Is your Video Card overclocked?

    If one or both of them are then perhaps try putting them back down to stock clocks and see if the problem persists. It may be that you have your GPU Memory Clock too high for it to remain stable for example.

    Here are a few things you can try:

    1. First verify the ATI/AMD driver version you are running - you can do this by launching the Catalyst Control Center and selecting Graphics > Information Center.

    2. If find that you are running on an older driver then it may be possible that its causing some incompatibility somewhere, leading to the instability.

    My recommendation would be to go the ATI/AMD website and download the latest display drivers for your card and OS. (Catalyst 10.12)

    Now before you proceed to install the drivers you'll want to uninstall the previous ones then clean the entire system of them, making sure no traces are left over.

    Here's how to do this:

    1. Download and install Driver Sweeper from here

    2. Uninstall your current ATI video card drivers and all other Catalyst software from Control Panel (under Catalyst Install Manager)

    3. Reboot your PC when prompted then select Safe Mode on the next boot

    4. Once logged in, run Driver Sweeper with administrative privileges and select ONLY the option saying "ATI - Display"

    5. Proceed by hitting the Clean button and reboot once prompted

    6. Boot back into Windows normally and install the latest ATI video drivers which you have just downloaded, again rebooting once prompted by the installation

    7. Finally test your card for an hour or so using Games/Benchmarks or Furmark, including normal desktop usage.

    NOTE: For using of Radeon HD 5700 and 5800 series cards, I would not recommend using Catalyst 10.12 drivers as they seem to be a bit on the buggy side in my opinion. I would recommend using Catalyst 10.11 instead.

    Thanks for your analyst Mitchell90!

    I'll try to re-install the ATI Driver again and downgrade the Catalyst to version 10.11

    As for your questions: none of my CPU and VGA has overclock.

    To add to Mitchell90 post

    You should also remove stpd.sys

    Please remove any CD virtualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%. They use a driver, found in your dmp, sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs. Use this SPTD uninstaller when you're done: DuplexSecure - Downloads

    You can use MagicDisc as an alternative.

    Thanks! zigzag3143

    I will use the SPTD Uninstall after I remove daemontool lite

    After leave my PC for idle all night all and doing some screen test, benchmarking, playing a 3D game in HiRes mode and normal desktop usage, the issue is disappeared!

    Thank you very much for solving the problem!
    Happy New Year!
