Frequent BSOD's after swapping in a new Motherboard
Hi sevenforums,
I've been helped out a lot in the past because you helped me get my laptop fixed. These days I'm having a different problem.
I have pc with an Asrock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 motherboard which I recently put in there to replace the standard version of that motherboard. The old motherboard got damaged in a blackout and I didn't want to be without a pc for too long so I ordered a new one.
After I swapped in the new Motherboard I installed(or reinstalled) all the drivers so those would be up to date. But I still get a blue screen almost every day so I must have made a mistake somewhere.
Thanks in advance for your help ^^
Edit:
I ran WhoChrashed and all of my bsod's seem to point at these drivers:
atikmdag.sys (ATI Radeon Kernel Mode Driver, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.)
atikmpag.sys (AMD multi-vendor Miniport Driver, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.)
Some of the drivers included with my motherboard had to be installed with the AMD Catalyst Control panel. I'm going to try reinstalling my GPU driver first. And if that doesn't work I'll use driver sweeper to remove the driver and reinstall it again.
Edit2:
Bluescreens became more frequent when i tried this so I continued by sweeping the driver and I'm going to reinstall it now.
