Try this then: Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
I ran the test for just over 2 hours and there were no artifacts. The temp of my card stayed at around 81-83 degrees the entire time. So, no real issues with the card it appears (unless that's too hot).
Do you have another video card you can use? Maybe borrow one from a friend, or take of from another computer.
dang, not really... Is there any other tests we can run?
BSOD again. Anything you can get from this would be super helpful! Thank you again for everything so far!
I still really wish for a GFX card change.
Just a thought, disable your Creative Audio drivers, in Device Manager....Summary of the Dumps:Code:Ctafiltv.sys Thu Aug 14 02:48:33 2008Code:Built by: 7600.16617.amd64fre.win7_gdr.100618-1621 Debug session time: Mon Aug 23 18:20:57.616 2010 (UTC - 4:00) System Uptime: 0 days 2:06:40.146 BugCheck 7F, {8, 80050031, 6f8, fffff80002c7af06} Probably caused by : ntkrnlmp.exe ( nt!KiDoubleFaultAbort+b2 ) BUGCHECK_STR: 0x7f_8 PROCESS_NAME: System ииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииииии
Do you think it's because of the Catalyst Control Center? or is this type of this just more common on ATI cards? I might looks into buying an Nvidia if you think it will help.
In my experience, I have seen more nVidia crashes, most likely because nVidia cards are more common.
I'd say neither manufacturer is better at crashes than the other, really.
Can you uninstall the CCC, and install the driver only?
I just found it, I'm going to do this. *EDIT* Just installed the driver only. Lets see what happens.
Damn, once again! I might have access to an Nvidia card. I'll swap it out as soon as I can.
