Random BSOD's on new build, bad video card corrupting file system?
This is a "new" build, with a mixture of new/used parts. While waiting for a EVGA GTX 650ti Boost, I was using a regular GTX 650 to install all the software. I did not have any problems.
As soon as the new video card was installed I started having problems. Random BSOD, processes stopping, random shut downs, etc. It might work great for hours installing windows, windows updates, running burn in tests, video tests, etc, but then something always goes awry. Some of the errors led me to believe I was having hard drive problems, but I've tried 3 drives with 3 clean Windows installations, and problems still persist. I've ran hard drive tests, memory tests with no known issues.
My power supply is a little on the small side, Corsair CX430 430watt, but I've ran the various PS calculators and I think I should be ok.
I have the latest EVGA drivers for the video card. I would like some help interpreting the dumps so I can figure out if it is indeed the video card causing problems or if it's something as simple as a driver. From what I've found online, the EVGA GTX 650ti Boost has been known to cause BSOD.
Attached is one of the dumps I was able to capture.
