BSOD, freezes, distorted screen and audio on intensive use
Hello all,
first post, I read the rules and guidelines, hope I didn't miss anything.
Running a Win7 Ultimate x64, 4GB of RAM, ATI Radeon HD 5850 video card.
Recently, as of about 2 weeks, I've been getting random freezes with distorted screen and audio when running a game that I play (mod for BF2). I've noticed that this also happens when watching videos online or last night when I was comparing 150k lines of text in Notepad++ with a file the same size.
This has lead me to believe that there is either a RAM issue, video card issue or HDD issue. I received no clues, except for a bluescreen a few days ago that gave me the message: "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL". This is the only usable BSOD that I received and I figure it must have something to do with it.
I ran the SFDT, but the catch-22 is that my pc freezes up when it runs. Not immediately, but always before it finishes.
I have added the folder in .zip as an attachment, I hope it will be of some use since the tool didn't run all the way (I tried 3 times).
Thanks in advance.
