BSOD playing GW2 and Tera error 116

Duranox · 18 Feb 2013

still getting BSOD everytime i log onto the game, if nothing is wrong can it be that the graphic card or something else is not compatible with the game and causing the BSOD

Update to the latest drivers, even if these drivers are Beta. Most of these drivers (even if Beta) have lead to improvements in games.

Could also upload the latest dumps?

Have you tried resetting your page file?

Use this technique to "reset" your pagefile:
a ) Go to Start...Run...and type in "sysdm.cpl" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
-Then click on the Advanced tab,
-then on the Performance Settings Button,
-then on the next Advanced tab,
-then on the Virtual Memory Change button.
b ) In this window, note down the current settings for your pagefile (so you can restore them later on).
-Then click on the "No paging file" radio button, and
- then on the "Set" button. Be sure, if you have multiple hard drives, that you ensure that the paging file is set to 0 on all of them.
-Click OK to exit the dialogs.
c ) Reboot (this will remove the pagefile from your system)
d ) Then go back in following the directions in step a ) and re-enter the settings that you wrote down in step b ). Follow the steps all the way through (and including) the reboot.
e ) Once you've rebooted this second time, go back in and check to make sure that the settings are as they're supposed to be.

also please run a memory diagnostic on your video cards dedicated memory using this program: |MG| Video Memory Stress Test 1.7.116 Download

I might be useful to uninstall the driver in Device Manager (remove software if asked), then install the new driver.
