    ntoskrnl.exe causing various BSOD error messages


    Hello everyone,

    Since yesterday, I've started to get BSOD screens frequently. I tried any tool I could find, but it wouldn't do anything. After further searches, I've found using a dmp reading tool that my blue screens were caused by ntoskrnl.exe. Here are the dump files in text:

    These are only 4 of them (the other ones were from yesterday and disappeared). As you can see, the BSOD error messages are different.

    Anyway, I tried Googling but I can't find anyone with a similar problem to mine.

    Thank you for helping me!

    Edit: I forgot to add: the BSOD appears randomly. Somtimes on the Windows 7 logo booting screen, sometimes after a few minutes or hours. Even sometimes there's no BSOD screen at all, it just completely freezes and I have to shut down my computer.

    Sorry for the late reply, I had a terribly long shift at work today.

    Here are the infos required:

    - x64.
    - Originally Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.
    - Full retail version.
    - Hardware around a year and a half old.
    - OS around 6-7 months old.

    Thank you for looking into my problem, I don't want to format once again. :S

    Dumps point to your GPU drivers, atikmdag.sys

    - Boot into safe mode with networking
    - Uninstall the ATI drivers including Catalyst Control Center
    - Use driver sweeper to remove leftover ATI display driver files Guru3D - Driver Sweeper
    - Reboot in safe mode with networking
    - Install the latest drivers ATI Radeon
    - Reboot into normal mode

    Code:
    BugCheck 1E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff80002e77cd8, 0, ffffffffffffffff}
    
    Unable to load image \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\atikmdag.sys, Win32 error 0n2
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for atikmdag.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for atikmdag.sys
    Probably caused by : atikmdag.sys ( atikmdag+3ca1d6 )
