There is no change in the most recent dmps. is there any way you can try another video card, and try that video card in another computer?

I have tried 3 different GPU but they are the only cards I have. Unfortunately, I do not have another system that is capable of running one of these cards to test. I was able to get my 470 to run briefly with the 285.62 drivers but that was very brief and have been unsuccessful in attempts to recreate it.

I am starting to think its time for a clean install, though I think it may be hardware.

Sorry could you clarify what you mean by clean install? Are you referring to drivers or windows? Also, I was having a bit of hardware problems earlier that I was asking around in Tomsharware forums. We determined that the problem was my Corsair HX850W pro series PSU as it failed the paperclip test so I am using my kingwin mach1 1000w PSU in it's place. Could my powersupply be causing this problem?

Clean install of windows

Anything is possible.

Alright thank you for all your help thus far. I'll try to reinstall windows again and see if that solves anything and work with my video drivers some more.

Clean Install Windows 7

qstar123 · 19 Jan 2012

Hi again. So I just did a hopefully clean install of windows (I deleted my previous partition and then installed). I booted up into windows fine, installed windows updates, restarted. Everything checked out. Next I headed to Nvidia's site to download my drivers. Picked a custom clean install of the latest WHQL drivers. Upon rebooting I got a blue screen however this one was a different than the other times I've seen this. I'm uploading my minidump just in case you may be able to find something. I rechecked my BIOS to make sure I wasn't somehow accidentally overclocking even though I hadn't bothered trying, restored default values and checked the voltages to make sure.

Edit: just saw JMH's post. Going to reinstall following these instructions. Thanks for clarifying!

Edit 2: I have just did a clean install of windows 7 making sure to clear all partitions beforehand. This did not fix the problem as any of the 3 cards I have are still getting blue screens with the same error report when nvidia drivers are installed. I can still run with onboard graphics but that won't run my games unfortanetly. I have made sure to install the directX update and took careful care in following all the tips advised in this thread. I have my side panel open with a huge fan running on the system. There is hardly any dust at all because my components are all relatively new aside from my PSU. I'm pretty lost on this. Do you think updating the BIOS would help at all, is it worth a shot?
