Confused by BSOD's
Hi guys, first post and looking for a bit of help
Specs:
Asrock 4CoreDual-Sata2
Intel E2140
2GB Corsair XMS DDR2 (2 x 1GB)
Sapphire Radeon HD4650
Maxtor 6L200M0
I have had the above system for some time now but the graphics card is only a few months old. Previously the system has been running perfectly fine under Windows XP and Windows Vista. I have recently put Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit on and am encountering some problems that I am stumped on.
I am getting graphical corruption in games and also in Media Center and Media Player. I am also getting the occasional BSOD
Using MCE and WMP the graphical corruption is mainly green artifacts flashing every now and then. My other half likes to play Sims 3 and she has been getting problems with the textures being stretched across the screen and then it will eventually lock up and BSOD.
One BSOD pointed to atikmdag.sys so I have used driver sweeper to clean the drivers and reinstalled with the latest and also older ones with no luck. I have also checked the temperature of the card and its not exceeding 65C in games.
When added the graphics card and upgraded to Win 7, I ran memtest overnight and had no errors. Furmark shows no problems with the graphics when running the stress test.
WhoCrashed gives me the following:
