    BSOD while Gaming/Browsing/Afking(Desktop)


    Hello, im new here, just registered so please let me know if im doing something wrong.
    Ok, problem is BSOD's started occuring on my machine recently and gets way too often for my taste. The PC is one i've built myself piece with piece and installed a retail copy of win 7 ultimate x64. As the title states BSOD's occur while gaming/browsing/afking and i can't really tell why. I did some research myself and undergone some driver changes (installed an older video driver instead of the unstable latest one to no succces tho) and some minor other changes. I really need help with this one, i feel quite bad since the rig has no more than 4 months or so since i build it. DMP files and the other files needed for further investigations ar in the .zip archive.
    Thanks for the read and hope to hear from you soon. Regards.


    P.S: GPU + CPU heat levels are as normal as they can be. 35 degrees for the gpu and ~39 degrees for the all 4 cores after 7h+ sessions.

    Your Display driver triggered the crash.

    Update to the latest beta version NVIDIA DRIVERS 290.36 BETA

    Test your RAM and Graphics card
    RAM - Test with Memtest86+
    NVIDIA/AMD Video Card - Test with OCCT

    TDR116 crashes are caused by a badly installed driver or a defect in the GPU/RAM
    Stop any overclocking if any.

    Hey, was asleep. Im writing from another machine atm because for some odd reaseon i can't see my display anymore. The last time i was able to use my pc was when i started this thread and went to sleep afterwards. I tried different monitors/cables but to no succes, it says "no signal" and and the light goes orange on the monitor. I really don't understand what is going on, 2 days ago everything was fine. As a side note, when i turn the sound system louder i can hear how windows is loading and i can even type my win password and hear how he's in desktop connecting to skype etc. but i can't see anything at all. I still have warranty for my video card if the case. Thanks alot for the reply and hope to hear from u soon again.

    Okay, so i've managed 7h ago to regain control of the monitor. Did everything right this time, removed all traces of old display drivers with sweeper in safe than installed the latest 290.36 beta driver. Everything wen't well for 6h of gaming and then the BSOD kicked in again. Uploaded the last crash dump file. Thanks in advance. Forgot to mention that 5 seconds before the crash, the gpu fan started spinning insanely fast and very loudly even tho heat level was normal (39 degrees)...

    That graphics card seems to be defective, you should get it replaced.

    It's possible that the heat detector is defective. But it shouldn't increase the fan speed. Try touching the heatsink of the vga to be sure is the temperature is okay. Overvoltage could cause fast fan speed too. You can try furmark to test the temperature/behavior of the video card while load at 100% or use the program Everest for the temperature.
