BSOD whenever playing a game, multiple different errors
Is Windows 7 . . . - x86 (32-bit) or x64 ?
64 bit - the original installed OS on the system?
yep
- an OEM or full retail version?
full retail
- OEM = came pre-installed on system - Full Retail = you purchased it from retailer - What is the age of system (hardware)?
1.5 years
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?)
1.5 years
Basically I've been having this problem recently where if I play a game for too long, I'll get a BSOD crash. Happens with skyrim, portal 2, and now ToR. I think my RAM is faulty, so I ordered new RAM (hasn't come in the mail yet), but I've been getting errors like "Attempt to reset the video driver failed." Any advice?
Memtest had about 10 errors in the first 4%, hence why I ordered new RAM. If I run verifier I can't even start up windows without a BSOD
Edit: I should add that I never used to have these problems, but about a month ago it started happening with skyrim, then it happened on portal, and now on ToR. I can play the game for 10-20 minutes before a crash. They're coming more frequently now though.
