BSOD Help BCCode B3

Hello,

I would like some help fixing a blue screen problem I have been having recently. I have been having seemingly random blue screens while my computer has been idling, playing music, etc. My specifics are as follows:

-Windows 7 x64 (Retail upgrade disc bought and installed by me) - originally
installed XP, but decided to upgrade to 7
-New self-built PC (couple of months old)
-AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE, MSI 870A-G54 mobo, Crucial Ballistix 4gb DDR3
1600 memory, MSI R5770 gpu, OCZ 700w power supply, AC CPU fan

Thank you for your help in advance.

These were all caused by your video driver. Please use the below instructions to remove and re-install the newest version.

When upgrading your graphic driver you MUST remove all traces of the current driver. In order to do that we recommend using Guru3D - Driver Sweeper

When it is removed then download and install the fresh copy.

Thank you very much for your post. I am downloading the program now, and will reinstall as you have suggested.
