    Bluescreen problem while playing games


    I did a chkdsk/mem test and all the others typically suggested steps, plus a virus scan with Microsoft Security Essentials (which might not appear on the PERFMON test) and Malwarebytes and they came back fine. My video card driver is current and the Alienware site has a page for my drivers and those are up to date (athough driverfinder found a few things I could update, but when I ran this program in the past and updated drivers, it just caused me problems, because they weren't listed on the Alienware page for my system) .

    All my hardware has been the same since I got the computer and I never had bluescreens until recently playing DCUO and then it occured in other games after, that it never had before. I also have had alot of firefox tabs open lately, not sure if that's causing this, but I never had problems for a year or more, before, doing that.

    EDIT*** App Crash View showed the Bluescreens I experienced were from : WerFault.exe -Shut down unexpectedly. I read on another page disabling Werfault.exe (not sure how the instructions were different from what I see) could fix it but I don't know. I am just adding this info to assist whoever can help me here. My system also never runs slow or anything. Everything related to performance seems fine when it just suddenly bluescreens.

    Is Windows 7 . . .
    - 64-bit
    - Windows 7
    - full retail version
    - Alienware

    - What is the age of system (hardware)? 1.6
    - What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) 1.6/no

    1. Possible causes are Memory problems... Corrupted hard disk system files... Corrupted System Files... Graphics Driver...
    2. Hardware error. All probability points to hardware incompatibility/failure.
    3. Possible causes are Memory problems... Corrupted hard disk system files... Corrupted System Files... Lack of Windows updates... Antivirus Software...

    Thanks to Dave76 for help understanding possible causes.



    It is good that you are no longer blindly using driverfinder. Many of the drivers companies like driverfinder suggest are newer are for different hardware and can cause conflicts and more blue screen crashes.



    We will start with the common problems first (see bold possible causes). Do the following steps and test after each to see if stability increases (the memory tests you can run concurrently as they will not increase stability unless you are forced to move modules around). Post back your results after each step, and if you get a blue screen crash, upload the files again and await further instructions after we are able to analyze the crash.

    I actually ran Memtest86+ the last few days prior to this message. It all was fine.

    I just ran furmark and not sure which settings to use, so I went with my full resolution and AA at 2x and when the cards got to about 85, the system shutdown. I probably should mention I'm running SLI. I wonder if two cards for some games is not required? Some games never bluescreen at all from what I can tell.

    The VMT test came up no errors though I see this non supported code, here's what the results were:

    Code:
    Changing video mode to 640x480x16...OK
    [1/25/2012 9:59:12 PM] Test started for "Primary Display Driver (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480)"...
    Trying 16bpp RGB:565 mode...OK
    Trying 16bpp RGB:555 mode...OK
    Trying 16bpp BGR:565 mode...NOT SUPPORTED (Code: 80004001)
    Trying 32bpp RGB:888 mode...OK
    Trying 32bpp BGR:888 mode...NOT SUPPORTED (Code: 80004001)
    [1/25/2012 10:10:24 PM] Pass completed (0 errors found).
    I thought I'd stop here because the furmark crashed after a few minutes like I said. and because of the SLI configuration. Could it be tied to that somehow?

    I have seen SLI cause issues and those be resolved by removing the bridge. If that works, you should contact the manufacturer of the graphics card and of the motherboard to get troubleshooting steps as to why the SLI bridge is not working as it should.

    Well with the information I reported above would you suspect it might be SLI? Hardware monitor is showing all my fans working properly. I didn't install driver finder yet but the drivers it suggested I update were a few system and usb.

    In the nVidia control panel I can set it to run one card, would that be something to test?

    As for the Dell who actually sells Alienware now, my warrenty ran out. I had a big problem with them sending me the wrong pc 3 times in a row before getting this one which still wasn't the correct configuration. They won't talk to me anymore. If I can get this working on my own (limited knowledge in any hardware tech work) I would like that, but I'm almost tempted to buy a new computer anyway. I just dont know where to look. I don't build computers and I have no friends or none of my friends have brothers or anyone who can help me build a computer, so I'd probably go with something like Origin next, it's just costly. Not sure what I need and don't need to run high end games and just the occasionaly blu-ray movie, that can be somewhat cheap, run on this monitor resolution I like.

    It may also be a dust issue. It seems like your hardware is overheating based on your description of it shutting down during Furmark.

    I provide the laptop procedure in case someone with a laptop stumbles across this thread. Similar for warranty information as I imagine yours is up after over a year.

    To remove dust, follow the following general procedure. If you have a desktop bought from Dell, HP, Sony, Lenovo, etc. make sure removing the desktop casing will not void your warranty first. Call the company if you are still under warranty and ask if it is okay to remove the casing and blow dust out. The procedure described is fine for laptops; just make sure no stickers are on panels saying if you remove the panel it will void the warranty.
    1. Shut down and turn off your computer.
    2. Unplug all power supplies to the computer (AC Power then battery for laptops, AC power for desktops)
    3. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds to close the circuit and ensure all power drains from components.
    4. Remove the casing for a desktop, or remove any screwed on panels and disc drives for laptops.
    5. Blow out the dust inside by using a can of compressed air or a low pressure compressor. You will want to put the computer on a desk or table so you can maintain the can in an upright position if using a can of air. Blow into all crevices on the motherboard, heat sinks, cards, modules, etc. for a desktop. Blow into vents, opened panels, disc drive areas, USB ports, and the keyboard if it is a laptop. You may also want to blow inside the disc drive by replacing the drive to the laptop, starting the computer, opening the drive, and then turning off the computer and removing all power as described above including the 30 second power button step. For a desktop, you may also want to blow inside the disc drive by starting the computer, opening the drive, and then turning off the computer and removing all power as described above including the 30 second power button step.
    6. Replace casing for the desktop. Replace panels and disc drive (if you have not already done so) for the laptop.
    7. Plug power supplies in. AC adapter for the desktop. Battery and then AC Adapter for the laptop.
    8. Start the computer and see if performance is better.

    I did all that you said. I'm not sure if it's running right or not since the bluescreen is just random. I guess I just have to wait.

    I ran the 3dmark 2011 tests and the cards temperatures went into the 90s where with the other program the computer shutdown at 80, but maybe because I had burn in selected. So I don't know what else could cause it. I didn't get any bluescreens or shutdowns yet. I'm not sure what other kinds of tests I could run.

    You should probably try Furmark again since it caused the problem most recently.




    Did you try Furmark again? Any crashes?

    Yeah but i played 3 games since on max settings and never got any crashes. then i played some older lower end game and it crashed. Ntkrnl.exe again, and the bluescreen code was completely different from the one above. So it happened once more since my last post but like I said I just played through KoA:Reckoning, Saints Row The Third, Skyrim and the Mass Effect 3 Demo on all high, some of those for 8 hours straight and no crash. Then just the other day I loaded up an older game - Darksiders and it bluescreened with the same reason according to whocrashed and Bluscreenview.
