    BSOD/crashes during games


    I will either get a BSOD (every 30 min. or so) or a black screen crash with sound looping frequently while playing games.

    I don't think my video card is overheating. I have a bunch of temperature monitors checking that. I do however think its unstable for some reason. I'm hoping this is the issue.

    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
    OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1
    Locale ID: 1033

    Additional information about the problem:
    BCCode: a0000001
    BCP1: 0000000000000005
    BCP2: 0000000000000000
    BCP3: 0000000000000000
    BCP4: 0000000000000000
    OS Version: 6_1_7601
    Service Pack: 1_0
    Product: 256_1


    I did a clean driver install on my video card yesterday installing an older more stable one. I clean install my PC every couple of months. This has been happening regardless.

    EDIT: It doesn't matter what driver I'm on this happens on any driver version, new or old.

    Hello Derek, I would suggest you to do the following:

    ► Update your ATI Video driver from AMD Support & Drivers. It is very old, of 2011.
    Code:
    kd> lmvm atikmdag
start             end                 module name
fffff880`048c4000 fffff880`051f8000   atikmdag T (no symbols)           
    Loaded symbol image file: atikmdag.sys
    Image path: \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\atikmdag.sys
    Image name: atikmdag.sys
    Timestamp:        Wed Apr 20 07:23:29 2011 (4DAE3C99)
    CheckSum:         008E91DD
    ImageSize:        00934000
    Translations:     0000.04b0 0000.04e4 0409.04b0 0409.04e4
    ► Also, run chkdsk/F/R following the option two of the tutorial Disk Check, as the dumps indicates your NTFS system, too.

    ► Download speccy, monitor your system heat, specially the temperature just before any further crash.

    ► Clean the accumulated dust inside the computer.

    Let us know how the results.
