BSOD for last couple weeks, almost always when FF open

Thanks for the answer, this is probably a dumb question..... where would I find the new drivers for my card? If you could point me in the right direction it would really help.

If I can find the drivers, I will let you know how it goes tomorrow.

Also, I was thinking about upgrading to windows 10...... any thoughts on that?

Again.....thank you so much!!!! would gladly pay you if sent a bill. In fact I would dump this thing at your front door if you lived close by for you to fix it, whatever the cost :)

Thanks again..... Have a good Sunday!

Sorry, one more question on your thoughts. Would you recommend getting a new graphics card? I have a CAD type program I use a lot for drawing homes and other construction projects. And I use a lot of graphic stuff, especially phtotoshop. Then again, I started doing a lot of video creation and editing.

Any thoughts appreciated. If you think I should upgrade, could you give me a few ideas on what I should be looking for.

Thanks again....you're help has been awesome.

I found the rep tab and gave you some much deserved rep love :)

I've got 4 other puters that could use some love.....maybe I'll be lucky enough to get you when I post each puter problem.

Again....thank you very much......5:30 am, time for me to get some shut eye :)

Hey Boris, hope you're still around :)

I was just about to post my results and make the thread as completed when it crashed again.

I upgraded drivers as you suggested, first the nvidia using the app that you gave a link to.

Next I did a scan of the complete machine for drivers using
Download Driver Booster 3 Pro - Update PC Drivers Easily - IObit

I couldn't purchase the tweakbit app that you suggested. Tried for a couple of hours using
multiple credit cards but the sale would not go through so I found the iobit app, ran it and
it upgraded a whole bunch of drivers.

My machine ran great for a day or two and just tonight it crashed without warning. Did not get
the BSOD, but just a black screen, computer looked like it was laboring....waiting 20 minutes
or so and turned the machine on and off. Rebooted and everything loaded.

I had an app or two open, but I had a bunch of firefox tabs open, maybe that caused it.

I was hoping you might take a look and see if there might be any other problems.

Again....thank you so much for your help, really appreciate it.

Best Wishes,
Scott

I forgot to add the log

After I rebooted it stayed on for about 30 minutes. Then it crashed again, now it will not reboot.

After I push the power button, it will appear to boot up, Resuming windows appears and screen goes black, looks like drive is accessing but screen stays black.... sometimes a cursor in top left flashing, like an old dos cursor, big and white.

tried to power on an off a couple of times.... nothing.

thanks

I did not realize choice of program was so critical..... I was in a hurry and the "tweakbit" sale just would not go thru, tweakbit was the link you gave me but I don't see it in any of the above posts, anyway, I was able to download something from tweakbit but could not activate it until I paid......thats where the problem came in, they would not accept my credit cards....so I looked for something else, in retrospect, I should had ran the substitution by you first.... dumb move on my part, I get what I deserve ...surprising thing is that it worked so well for a period of time.

I'm the bad guy, not you.... I really appreciate whatever insight you can give into this. Since I do not know too much about these things, I can be a little vulnerable.... that
