    Recent BSOD's NO Gaming, No Overclocking


    I've had two recent BSOD's this month. My HP Pavillion Elite Core i7, 750GB, 8
    GB, is 2 1/2 years old. Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.

    Prior to the BSOD's, I have recently installed Office 365, and am using Lync and Sharepoint. I've also recently hooked up a new Western Digital External 2TB, USB 2.0/3.0 to back up my data using Windows Backup. I have not left the external drive connected.

    I've attached the dump file zip. Can you tell me what these dump files are saying is my problem?
    Thank you.

    Hello, welcome to SevenForums!

    Both dump files provided are the 116 Graphics Driver TDR Fault bugcheck. Common causes are:

    More info from the AMD link above - the suggestions in red are mine. This was extracted from this post - ( https://www.sevenforums.com/crashes-d...tml#post782801 )

    From this link ( http://forums.amd.com/game/messagevi...&enterthread=y ):
    The following hardware issues are examples that can cause a TDR event:
    - Failing overclock on CPU or GPU (stop overclocking)
    - Bad sector in memory resulting in corrupt data being communicated between GPU and the system (either video or system memory) ( MemTest and a video memory stress test: |MG| Video Memory Stress Test 1.7.116 Download )
    - Corrupt hard drive/windows install resulting in corruption to the system registry or the page file (Hard drive diagnostics ( HD Diagnostic ), reset your pagefile and run the System File Checker )
    - Over heating of GPU or CPU again resulting in corrupt data being communicated. (Point a house fan at the video card, take temperature readings from the card with an IR detector (or your finger - but be very, very careful!!!)
    - GPU failure due to any sort of issue from insufficient power(VERY common) to heat. (check the power leads, use a multimeter to check the power output, try another, more powerful PSU)
    The following software issues are examples that can cause a TDR event:
    -Incompatible drivers of any sort (either GPU, sound, etc) ( Windows 7 Compatibility: Software Programs & Hardware Devices: Find Updates, Drivers, & Downloads )
    -Messy registry (I doubt this and don't approve of registry cleaners)
    -Known vista issues resounding around multiple displays, aero, dreamscape, and various display drivers. (none known for this OS)
    -Known vista issues that sometimes cause corrupt information to be sent to the video card from system memory (will be addressed completely in SP2, has had various fixes applied since vista's release) (none known for this OS)
    -Bad direct x files (uninstall, then reinstall DirectX)
    -bad system files (System File Checker - was run above)
    -Bad driver (some drivers will cause an event due to internal bugs, however these are not nearly as common as many think due to all of the previous things causing the same symptom) - (remove all 3rd party programs and check to be sure drivers aren't loading. Then install only the necessary 3rd party stuff, and ensure it's the latest version and that it's compatible with Win7)
    First thing I'd recommend you do is fully uninstall and reinstall the latest version of your AMD video card drivers, especially since I've noticed that yours are dated from 2010. If doing this does not work, please follow the suggestions above.
