BSOD during streaming videos, saving a file, or just randomly

A stop 0x7C is network related, but there is no crash dump in the zip.

Follow it: Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD
Go to Option Two, Point 2. Download the .reg file and merge it in registry by double clicking it.

Now wait for another BSOD. When it occurred, search the .dmp files manually in the default path: C:\Windows\Minidump or %SystemRoot%\Minidump. See if the crash dump is recorded or not (hopefully it will be recorded).Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

Dont run any disc cleanup utility before you upload another zip.

Windows error reporting says it recorded a dump, it gives the name of the dump file too.

I think you have a cleaning mechanism that cleans the dumps up.

Probably not.

It just says that SlimWare Utilities failed. From the file you uploaded .....

Code:

ConsentKey=APPCRASH
AppName=DriverUpdate
AppPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\DriverUpdate\DriverUpdate.exe

Which means ..... from teh data you posted earlier ....

Code:

SlimWare Utilities, Inc.    c:\program files (x86)\driverupdate\driverupdate.exe

I would not suggest you to any such program. They dont do the right job.

Dont run any sort of disc cleanup mechanism; if there is any such program (Slimware may have it) that automates disc cleanup, stop it.

It reports display failure.

Code:

BugCheck 1000007E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff8800f547dbb, fffff880040aa0c8, fffff880040a9920}

Probably caused by : atikmdag.sys ( atikmdag+c7dbb )

Your installed display driver is a very good and stable one, the CCC 14.4 WHQL. So not blaming the driver at the first go.

First make it sure that any of the hardware components are not overclocked. As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings. Also set the BIOS to default, too. How To Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS)

Uninstall Gigabyte OC Guru too, as your computer is having BSODs.

When the hardware are set back to stock, stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

Take a screenshot of the furmark window before closing it. Upload the screenshot for us. Also let us know if you have experienced any crash/BSOD and/or artifacts during the test.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: Speccy - Publish Snapshot of your System Specs .

Let us know the results.

Not directly related with the issue, but you are running too many unnecessary programs in the background always, which is sufficient to cause various sort of issues. There are 25 startup programs there, and in fact none of them are required to be there. Free up the startup. Windows does not need any other program to auto start with it, but the auto start programs often conflicts and causes various problems including BSODs.

1. Click on the Start button
2. Type “msconfig (without quotes), click the resulting link. It will open the System Configuration window.
3. Select the “Startup” tab.
4. Deselect all items other than the antivirus.
5. Apply > OK
6. Accept then restart.

When you need any of them, call them from Start > All programs.
