    BSOD while gaming / booting games


    Hi,

    Since I've installed Windows 7 about 6 months ago, I have been getting random BSODs while gaming after a while. At first I thought it was caused by the game, so I didn't do anything. For the past month though, I've been getting BSODs directly after starting games or after like 10 minutes.

    I run Windows 7 64 bit. I have a GTX 275 graphics card, Q6600 CPU, and 4 GB of ram.

    I have already downloaded Windows 7 64 bit compatible drivers for my graphics card and mouse and reinstalled them.

    By the way, I have a Razer Diamondback mouse, and after Googling I've found out that many people have problems with this mouse' driver causing BSODs.

    I have attached a .dmp file, I would appreciate it very much if someone could look into this.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello ! Welcome to SF !

    Yes i think it has to do something with Razor Mouse because the Driver it's using is from 2005. Uninstall the mouse drivers completely and download a fresh copy if it's available. Then update it. If not delete the mouse drivers and see if you can get a mouse from you friend or so and see if that works fine.

    Code:
     Razerlow.sys Mon Nov 07 12:03:11 2005
    Good Luck,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I downloaded this driver: Razer Diamondback Windows 7 Driver v6.02

    I have already reinstalled it like 3 times today and yesterday. Do you have any idea why it says 2005?

    Cheers

    Since that release date or the Driver wasn't updated after 2005. Try to go to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers and rename the Razerlow.sys to Razerlow.old then reboot then try to install the Driver. Remember the Mouse won't function until you reinstall the Driver.

    I have removed the driver and renamed the file as you said, rebooted and reinstalled the newest version of the driver. I tried to play some COD2 and it seemed to work, but after about 20 minutes I still got a BSOD... :/

    I attached the dmp file. Any help would be appreciated :)

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Seems like the IRQL has been raised while i-Tunes was running. That's quiet weird try this follow this thread Using Driver Verifier to identify issues with Drivers and enable Driver Verifier.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I've followed the steps and after rebooting I immediately got a bsod. I rebooted again and got a bsod again. So I booted in safe mode and deleted the settings. I've attached the dmp files.

    Any help would be appreciated :)

    Hello,

    Seems like the Driver Verifier has caught Razor Mouse again seems like a bad driver or Bad mouse itself it best to replace the mouse.

    Code:
    nable to load image \SystemRoot\system32\drivers\Razerlow.sys, Win32 error 0n2
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for Razerlow.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for Razerlow.sys
    Probably caused by : Razerlow.sys ( Razerlow+20f3 )

    DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION (c4)
    A device driver attempting to corrupt the system has been caught.  This is
    because the driver was specified in the registry as being suspect (by the
    administrator) and the kernel has enabled substantial checking of this driver.
    If the driver attempts to corrupt the system, bugchecks 0xC4, 0xC1 and 0xA will
    be among the most commonly seen crashes.

    After removing the drivers and trying Driver Verifier with another mouse, I didn't get any BSODs.

    I have already ordered a new mouse.

    Thank you for all your help!
