    Random bsods.


    Hello,
    Well I've built a new computer recently, and well, it just blue screens randomly, I could be playing a game, I could be idle.
    The error I've been getting is 0x000007e and 0x000003b. I've installed the hotfix for 3b, but it still happens.

    Thanks in advance :),

    Joe.

    Sorry about the late reply I had a number of appointments yesterday that seemed to eat up all of my time, but I had a look at the files you posted, and it appears that both crashes are reporting your video driver as the cause:
    Code:
    fffff880`02e284f8  fffff880`0494d6e8Unable to load image \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\atikmdag.sys, Win32 error 0n2
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for atikmdag.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for atikmdag.sys
     atikmdag+0x8a6e8
    Driver Reference Table - atikmdag.sys

    Looking at the time stamp we can see that the drivers aren't to old but updating them cis the best course of action:

    Code:
    kd> lmvm atikmdag
    start             end                 module name
    fffff880`05676000 fffff880`0618c000   atikmdag T (no symbols)

    Thank you very much! I've downloaded and installed the drivers for my gtx :)!
    I'll leave it a while before I mark this as solved, just in case! thanks :)

    Was solved, but happend again.
    new graphics card this time, so (maybe) new error. Same code (0x000003b) or similar Zeros.
    Anyway, here's the Zip diagnostics.
    Thanks in advance!
