BSOD playing any game, error 0x0000016

Merssio · 09 Apr 2012

Hello!
I have a problem with BSOD with nvlddmkm.sys when playing any game. This BSOD shows only when I play any game, but when I browse internet or run for example some graphic programs, that screen never showed up. Sometimes I can play 5 minutes, sometimes more.
BSOD information:

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1
Locale ID: 1062

Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: 116
BCP1: FFFFFA8001FBF0E0
BCP2: FFFFF88010AC2AA4
BCP3: FFFFFFFFC000009A
BCP4: 0000000000000004
OS Version: 6_1_7601
Service Pack: 1_0
Product: 256_1

Here is some information about my comuter:
AMD X2 4600+, nVidia GF 8800GT 512mb, RAM 2GB.

I already changed drivers to newest and downgraded to some older, but nothing changed, the same problem again.
I used otion that I founded on the net where I needed to use CMD and expand that .sys file to create new, but that not helped too.

Maybe some suggestions? I ran out of options...

Just running the April memory dumps (based on your description I don't think we'll get any more info by running the rest of them).

Try this article while we're waiting for the memory dumps to finish: STOP 0x116: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR troubleshooting

FYI - I'm going down to feed my dogs right now - I'll be back in about 30 minutes

Dogs all fed, got their heartworm pills also! :0)

All but one of the 13 memory dumps are STOP 0x116 - so the steps to follow are in the link I provided in the previous post.

Although it's not blamed here, Daemon Tools (and Alcohol % software) are known to cause BSOD's on some Win7 systems (mostly due to the sptd.sys driver - although I have seen dtsoftbus01.sys blamed on several occasions).
Please uninstall the program, then use the following free tool to ensure that the troublesome sptd.sys driver is removed from your system (pick the 32 or 64 bit system depending on your system's configuration): DuplexSecure - FAQ

BIOS dates from 2007 (v 1603). Version 2001 contains this:

Version 2001
Description BIOS update file for M2V (Version: 2001)
Fix system unstable when GeForce 8 series VGA card installed. File Size 428,8 (KBytes) 2007.11.14 update Download from

Global (DLM)

Global

I'd have to consider this as a likely cause of your problem. Should you choose to update your BIOS, please be very, very careful and follow the directions exactly!

Further info on BSOD error messages available at: http://www.carrona.org/bsodindx.html

The following info is just FYI, I've already addressed the issues that I saw in the above paragraphs

Thanks! I will try to remove side panel, maybe this will help. Also remove Daemon tools. Then I will let you know how it went :)

Merssio · 13 Apr 2012

I updated Bios and the main change that appeared is after restart, when all starts loading, shows screen where is two options - press f1 to load setup and press f2 to load default values... and whatever I choose, after restarting it shows again. How can I correct this problem?

usasma · 13 Apr 2012

Press F1 and, when in the BIOS, make sure the settings are as you want them to be.
Then when exiting, be sure to SAVE before exiting.

If the message still appears, then I'd have to wonder about your CMOS battery.
Does the correct date show in the system?
Try replacing the CMOS battery - in Desktop systems it's usually a CR-2032 battery (about the size of a US nickle) and they're fairly cheap (about $5 US for 2).
