    BSOD when gaming Service exception error


    I have been having some issues with my computer for a while now and finally decided I would ask around for help.
    I did a clean install of my windows 7 believing that would help, but it didn't unfortunately.

    Some games that it has happened with:
    Dying Light
    Evolve
    Red Faction

    I can play other games just fine, Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor, Starcraft 2, 7 Days to die and many others so I'm not sure what it could be. The BSOD doesn't ALWAYS happen, Dying Light I'm actually not sure it is a BSOD. My screen freezes up completely, there are little rectangles all over the screen, and I can hear the game playing in the background but I can't do anything. The audio just continues. Example being if a zombie is breathing heavily, you will hear it like as if you are still there but nothing else changes.

    It has also happened when updated my drivers AND when I did a "sfc.exe /scannow". I downloaded the AMD Catalyst and when it got to my display drivers, it started flickering like normal then went to BSOD. I've had my PC since last July/August and these issues only started happening about 2 months ago. I've been starting to think it could possibly be a hardware related issue at this point.
    The only modification I have made in the last 2 months was changing my CPU vent/fan. I changed the stock one that came with my processor and got a bigger one (my computer would get pretty warm).

    I would upload information on the BSOD, but I don't have anything about them sorry.

    Please do the following:

    Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.
    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

    Driver Verifier will cause your computer to run very sluggishly - this is normal. What it is trying to do is force your system to BSOD and isolate the offending driver/s. When it does, reboot, disable driver verifier, reboot as normal and upload the new dmp file/s here.

    I recommend creating a system restore point before turning on driver verifier:
    System Restore Point - Create

    If your system fails to boot to desktop once driver verifier is enabled, turn it off by booting into Safe Mode:
    Safe Mode

    Ok will do. I was just about to head to bed. I'll leave it running during that time.
    Should I play games during that period? Or will it still test the drivers properly?

    Thanks for the reply!

    Almost as soon as it got to the desktop, my screen went all crazy and it's frozen. No BSOD appeared. I'm going to upload a picture from my phone.
    I'm hard resetting and will disable driver verifier in safe mode.
    Is there a file or something I can provide you?

    Check for a .dmp file in C:\Windows\Minidump

    Unfortunately it did not create a dump.
    This is a dump that happened prior to it though. It was what brought me here in the first place.
    I don't know if it is related, but I have had a few CTD when I play Evolve. Just throwing information out there in case it helps narrow things down.

    I would upload more, but I clean installed windows so I can't give you any others.

    Hopefully this helps. Let me know if there is anything else you need. Thanks

    I looked at that earlier, but it wasn't giving much away.

    The only thing I can suggest at this stage is:

    1. Uninstall this:

    Code:
    Advanced SystemCare 8	"c:\program files (x86)\iobit\advanced systemcare 8\asctray.exe" /auto	Lightning-PC\Lightning	HKU\S-1-5-21-3999050946-3521727815-1076858295-1000\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    2. Ensure the video driver is updated.

    Ok, the program is uninstalled and I did a clean install of my video drivers.
    I'm reinstalling Dying Light, and I'll see if I can get it to blue screen. I one time played it in window mode just to see and rather than freeze, it BSOD on me.
    Thanks for your help Golden.

    Ok so it just BSOD on me again. I was just surfing the web and waiting for the game to download.
    Here is the dump it gave.

    I don't know what's going on now, but it's happening way more frequently now.
    I'm uploading two dump files that BSOD within about 5 minuets of each other.

    One happened while I was doing a windows update, and the other happened while I was getting the first dump file.
    I don't know if they will help anymore than the first one I uploaded, but I figured I would get them up just in case.
