Hi :)

I've been having an issue with my graphic card driver (just repplaced my card from an Nvidia card) and every time i restart my pc i get a blue screen and then pc starts normal.

I used WhoCrashed to see whats up and this is what he gave me:
4 crash dumps have been found and analyzed. A third party driver has been identified to be causing system crashes on your computer. It is strongly suggested that you check for updates for these drivers on their company websites. Click on the links below to search with Google for updates for these drivers:

atikmpag.sys (AMD multi-vendor Miniport Driver, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.)

Here is the info from the last crash (today):
On Thu 14/01/2016 09:21:21 GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\011416-8330-01.dmp

I uninstalled and reinstalled all my AMD drivers twice... using the amd removal tool and still the problem goes on... Im clueless on what to try next... Help anyone?

Okay after having a look at your dump files I would recommend doing the following:

SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

Download and install drivers for your system from MSI Support

Do a malware scan. I can suggest using Adwcleaner.

I would also recommend you to run Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool preferably for 3-4 hours or overnight whichever is more handy for you!

And post back the results!

Cheerio /Boris :)
