    Problem with Borderlands 2 (and many other games)


    So my games are crashing. Every great once in awhile it's a blue screen but my testing all night I haven't had any BSOD there. Also, some games tend to make this happen more than others. Borderlands 2 is constant, where it's only ever happened once with League of Legends. Grand Theft Auto 4 does it occaisionally. Here are the errors I'm getting tonight.

    I did some searching, and I did a few things already, but the problems persist:
    - I removed my display adapter and re-installedmy video drivers (And did a clean install)
    - I ran malware bytes and ccleaner
    - I disabled all other programs
    - I reset the file permissions for all folders on my storage drive (So that users, authenticated users, administrators, and SYSTEM all have full access to every file on the drive)

    Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi ActionJackson22, welcome to 7F! :)

    In order to help you better you should go to: BSOD Help and Support - Windows 7 Help Forums and follow the instructions at the very top of the page.

    It would also help if you filled out your system Specs. What you list is a start, but this will help: System Info - See Your System Specs

    It's your video drivers.

    Start with an older and known to be stable driver ie 310.xx Test, update driver, test.

    nvidia has been pumping out some crap lately.

    Thanks smartey, I saw the nvd3dum.dll, but wasn't sure on how to proceed.

    No worries mate. If a known to be flawless machine has many crashes and anything that starts with a nv in the dll, then drivers are the best place to start.

    If the problem still persists after going back to older drivers you start looking at if any OC apps are being used, or it's a 'factory' overclock. If it's an app based OC, don't use the app. test. Basically keep ruling out video related software like drivers, monitoring apps, overclocking apps etc before looking at other avenues like hardware based problems. (Temps, voltages, etc)

    OP, how long have games been crashing? Do you recall updating your drivers or let Windows Update install them?
