But there is only one crash dump in the zip that you uploaded, and that is of 31/08/2014; which obviously would not reflect the present situation.

We have hints of recent BSODs though, but not the dumps.

You are saying that the issue is with atikmpag.sys. That is the display driver, and the display hardware is AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series.

DXDiag does not find that device. Neither the installed driver.

Code:

---------------
Display Devices
---------------
          Card name: 
       Manufacturer: 
          Chip type: 
           DAC type: 
         Device Key: Enum\

Whereas you have a driver installed, though not the very preferred one.

Code:

21/11/2014 4:08:54 §£  C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\atikmpag.sys

Based on the above, it is safe to say that the display device is failing, but I will still suggest you to check the situation with another driver version, a good stable one.

Uninstall the installed display driver using Display Driver Uninstaller. Then install the CCC 14.4 WHQL only.

Let us know the result.

If the issue equally persists, you have to change the graphics card.
