Do you have a program on your computer called Smite Hi-Rez? or a Game called Smite? I see 2 instances of it being a problem. The rest of them are Xcom. There were no dump files. If you are running Xcom through Steam, try to verify the files, or completely uninstall it then reinstall it. If you don't know how, I can tell you. If you are playing it from Ubisoft, I can't be much help. Let me know before you do anything.
I can't remember the exact circumstances but I did have install a second copy of smite, after the first stopped working and it told me to reinstall.
It was a while after I started getting BSOD issues though.
Xcom was a very recent install to steam, just after I installed windows again.
The problem with finding an update to my firmware is that typing in the numbers at the far right (EXT0BB0Q) reveals nothing and typing in the rest (Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120gb ATA device) results in either a tonne of different SSDs or none at all, once you get to the 120gb part.
Also, the drivers are all ISOs which I don't know what to do with, assuming I could find the right one.
Sorry, I know this is taking up alot of your time.
If it's all stuff on my regular hard drive that's causing the problem, would it be best to clear it off completely? And if so, how could I do that safely?
If you have Samsung magician, it will tell you whether your SSD is up to date. In that slot where you put the firmware, you put the model # of the SSD. It will tell you the latest firmware.
Don't worry about the time. We just need to get your computer running right.
So I got Samsung Magic and updated my driver.
It seemed to help, the BSOD's are less frequent now, but they are still there.
Is there any more information I can provide?
I can say that my BSODs over the last few days have always featured the words "Driver_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" if that helps.

Here you go.
There are no dump files and the same Smite and Xcom entries. Mostly Xcom.
Make sure you don't have the SSD plugged into a Marvell sata Port. Plug it into port 0 or 1.
So I'm guessing a good step would be to uninstall smite and Xcom?
And I'm totally at a loss when it comes to computer assembly. They put it together for me.
I feel like such a scrub >.<
Have you been having a lot of app crashes during those games? are you playing them through Steam?
Smite's been on it's own and Xcom's been through steam.
And no, those two are some of the more stable apps. The ones that are causing huge problems are path of exile, dota and total war Rome 2, all run through steam.
It can happen with anything as far as I know, even just youtube, but those seem to cause it sooner.
