BSOD Crash frequently

Hey guys,

So my computer just recently started crashing on me quite frequently. I keep getting the same thing happening. The sound will skip, then it stops, then the sound just jitters for about 10 seconds. After that the computer restarts and tells me it recovered from an unexpected shutdown. In the zip folder I attached, there are files with images of the crash report, the files from the BSOD\Crash exe, as well as the report of the perfmon. If you guys can help me out to fix this issue that would be awesome.

Basic PC Info:
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (Full Retail)
Installed in August 2011
Intel i7-930 2.8 GHZ
nvidia GTX 470
6GB G.SKILL PI Series DDR3 1600
120GB OCZ Solid 3
1TB WD Caviar Black Sata 3
ASUS P6X58D Premium Motherboard

"It's not a true crash, in the sense that the bluescreen was initiated only because the combination of video driver and video hardware was being unresponsive, and not because of any synchronous processing exception".

Since Vista, the "Timeout Detection and Recovery" (TDR) components of the OS video subsystem have been capable of doing some truly impressive things to try to recover from issues which would have caused earlier OSs like XP to crash.

As a last resort, the TDR subsystem sends the video driver a "please restart yourself now!" command and waits a few seconds.

If there's no response, the OS concludes that the video driver/hardware combo has truly collapsed in a heap, and it fires off that stop 0x116 BSOD.

If playing with video driver versions hasn't helped, make sure the box is not overheating.

Try removing a side panel and aiming a big mains fan straight at the motherboard and GPU.

Run it like that for a few hours or days - long enough to ascertain whether cooler temperatures make a difference.

If so, it might be as simple as dust buildup and subsequently inadequate cooling.

I would download cpu-z and gpu-z (both free) and keep an eye on the video temps Let us know if you need help STOP 0x116: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR troubleshooting
