Hey again,
I started to work through the driver updates and started with the graphics card driver. The computer crashed again while installing the new drivers.
I've created another crash dump, and noticed that the BCCode was different this time, not 1e but 116.
Should I try and install these drivers in a specific order?
This is the right thing I think. Probably we are at the root of the real issue now.
STOP 0x116: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR troubleshooting
Follow it, step by step. If there is any query about any of the steps, ask as.
I went into my Bios screen on start up and selected "Load Fail-Safe Defaults". After doing this I could update the Graphics drivers, Sound drivers and Network drivers without any crashes. After doing that, I plugged in the internet and it still crashed though with the original 1e error. I'm now running the Memtest thing to see if there are any errors there and if none are found I will update the Bios.
I think the 116 error was more Bios related than Graphics Card, seeing how the Graphics Card is not overheating and can play HD graphics while the Computer is disconnected from the internet. And how after loading fail-safe defaults in the Bios I could update the driver fine.
Will see what Memtest comes back with after a few hours of testing!
Ok I left the Memtest to run for a good 6 hours, got 10 passes and 0 errors so I think it's safe to say the Memory is fine.
Going to try and update my Bios tomorrow!
