Hello!
Having a BSOD while playing Guild Wars 2.
First minidump showed ntoskrnl.exe and then ctaud2k.sys.
Forums suggested "remove NVidia HD Audio driver" as a solution.
Did it. After a while got another BSOD. In this case the last one was ASACPI.sys, which is pretty old asus mb driver.
Strange thing is that I use this motherboard for quite a while, but BSODs are haunting me for the last days, after reinstalling Windows.
And in both minidump cases right before the last line in stack was ntoskrnl.exe. Maybe that's the reason?
Can somebody help me to solve this mystery please?
Thank you
dumps and sf info are attached

So, I've installed Nvidia drivers (this time with HD audio driver).
Removed audigy sound card, disabled onboard sound. I will use Nvidia HD audio to avoid conflicts.
Updated motherboard BIOS and some of the drivers.
Tested ram (with memtest86+) and HDD with HDDScan. No errors here.
Tested graphics card with MSI Kombustor. Works fine.
And now I will start testing games thoroughly. Will post back afterwards.
