BSOD & Non-BSOD Crashes, Display Driver Issue?
I'm running:
Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit, OEM, never reinstalled
HP model #p6654y, approx. 1 year old, no major problems until now
I've attached the BSOD Dump and System File Collection, but Windows refuses to produce a System Health Report because I have to run in safe mode. If you have an alternative method, I'll be glad to try it, but normal mode seems to be producing crashes more and more quickly.
First BSOD was 12/25, then 12/29, then 12/31. There have been more than 3 crashes, but not every crash has produced a minidump; several times, the crash has been a sudden black screen. One time, display froze with a bunch of horizontal lines/distortion and stuck like that until I hard restarted. I have had to hard restart every time (except for 2 occasions during which hard restart would not work, and I had to pull the power cord).
System Restore had me up and running for a whole day yesterday, and then it crashed again today. I was playing Zynga Poker on Facebook during at least 2 crashes, but crashes have happened without it open as well.
Running 2 passes of the memory checker did not detect any memory issues. From my experience, it doesn't seem like a hardware problem, but I could be wrong.
Please help.
