    BSOD while playing Guild Wars 2 beta


    Hello so I have only experienced a bsod on this build once that was with assassins creee. Was wondering if anyone could help me trouble shoot. Over the course of 20hrs it has occurred 5x all during the game. I know the game is still in beta but thought it would be a good idea to ask incase

    My specs are:
    I7-2600K @ stock
    570gtx @ stock
    gskill ripjaws 8gb ram @1600mhz
    Windows 7 64-bit home full retail

    Temps are around 40-50F with the cpu and 60-70F with the gfx card so i doubt its a heating issue

    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
    OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3
    Locale ID: 4105
    Additional information about the problem:
    BCCode: 116
    BCP1: FFFFFA800B350010
    BCP2: FFFFF8800FF3EAA4
    BCP3: FFFFFFFFC000009A
    BCP4: 0000000000000004
    OS Version: 6_1_7601
    Service Pack: 1_0
    Product: 768_1

    *Just read the bsod guide and uploaded the necessary attachment

    "It's not a true crash, in the sense that the bluescreen was initiated only because the combination of video driver and video hardware was being unresponsive, and not because of any synchronous processing exception".

    Since Vista, the "Timeout Detection and Recovery" (TDR) components of the OS video subsystem have been capable of doing some truly impressive things to try to recover from issues which would have caused earlier OSs like XP to crash.

    As a last resort, the TDR subsystem sends the video driver a "please restart yourself now!" command and waits a few seconds.

    If there's no response, the OS concludes that the video driver/hardware combo has truly collapsed in a heap, and it fires off that stop 0x116 BSOD.

    If playing with video driver versions hasn't helped, make sure the box is not overheating.

    Try removing a side panel and aiming a big mains fan straight at the motherboard and GPU.

    Run it like that for a few hours or days - long enough to ascertain whether cooler temperatures make a difference.

    If so, it might be as simple as dust buildup and subsequently inadequate cooling.

    I would download cpu-z and gpu-z (both free) and keep an eye on the video temps

    Thanks for the reply but as I mentioned my gpu is running around 60-70F during gameplay which shouldnt be an issue of concern. I'll ask around in the game about which drivers are stable

    I did read your first post. You asked for help troubleshooting and the first step was my post.

    Good Luck and yell if you need help.
