Random BSODs with demanding applications
Dear all,
Sorry to use my first post as a "please help me post".
It appears my PC is encountering problems when running demanding applications, like new games such as LA Noire, Skyrim and occasionally even old games. The BSODs that occur appear to be completely random to me, but I seem to be able to reduce crashes when reducing resolution from 1920x1080 to 1366x768. However, this is not satisfactory for this new pc which I bought because of its capabilities.
The BSODs have got several different error names "PAGE FAULT IN NON PAGED AREA" and "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL". And came acros this site several times.
I've tried several things, like a memory check (12h, no errors found), temperature log (60 ░C stable on highest strain). Installed new drivers, deleted old ones and reinstalled. Reinstalled DirectX. Called the manufacturer, but they would like to repair the pc for free, but over 15 days. Preferably, I don't have to send away my pc, of course. Their and my guess would be that the power supply is not sufficient, if so, I would certainly know so for sure, so I can demand a better power supply.
My installation: - 64-bit - The original installation - OEM-version - PC was bought three months back (november 2011) - I have not reinstalled Windows, I'd like to prevent that if possible
Please don't hesitate to require more information, I'd love this situation to be resolved. :)
Thank you very much!
