My computer is infested with BSOD's while playing online MMO games. It seems to happen when graphics are put to work. Running Office software and general net surfing, my pc runs fine. I'm n ot computer savy, but this is what I've done:

I ran memtest for 2 cycles and it ran fine.
Game tech suggest to reset Winsock - no help
updated NVIDIA and Asus drivers and Windows drivers including optional ones.
Lowered graphics setting in game to minimum (even though I had been running high graphics for weeks)
I checked cpu temps in BIOS and they seem to be fine (44C/111F)
Reinstalled windows & (Copied over it? ) no help.
I ran memtest again for multiple cycles this time. 1st pass it had some red flags, but then I restarted and ran for 24 hrs with no red flags.

I had recently add 4 GB of DDR3 and replaced my ATI graphics card with an NVIDA, but I had been running fine for several weeks after that. PLEASE HELP ME.

The max size for zip is 1 Mb, if yours is larger you will need to split them into smaller pieces and upload them.


To enable us to assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder.

The procedure:

* Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.
* Zip up the copy.
* Attach the ZIP archive to your post using the "paperclip" (file attachments) button.



To ensure minidumps are enabled:

Go to Start, in the Search Box type: sysdm.cpl, press Enter.
Under the Advanced tab, click on the Startup and Recovery Settings... button.
Ensure that Automatically restart is unchecked.
Under the Write Debugging Information header select Small memory dump (256 kB) in the dropdown box (the 256kb varies).
Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as %systemroot%\Minidump.
OK your way out.
Reboot if changes have been made.

Hi there, I have exactly the same problem. Any time i start playing fullscreen games like World of Warcraft, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Heroes of Newerth - i catch BSOD. At first i was thinking it's due the lack of Power Management and turned off my 2nd HDD - i thought so because recently i've bought NEW card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 TI, but the issue kept bothering me, and it was 3 times in a row within an hour.

PC:
AMD Phenom2 X4 810. 4GB DDR2 Ram,
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 TI graphics card
Windows 7 64bit ultimate

Thanks in advance!
