Bsod: Please help!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm dying
Hello,
I recently purchased my machine about 4 weeks ago and i have been having problems with it. I have done much research online on the causes of bsod. From what i have read it can be a lot of different things. Windows updates to drivers to hardware etc. My first factory reset was after i was always getting bsod while playing games such as lfd2, bf2. I thought it was caused by steam or windows update and even drivers because i had downloaded drivers from ati website for my graphics card. Also, i had installed windows update through the windows update on my computer (when shutting down windows it automatically installs). My second factory reset was when i did not install any new drivers or update and just steam, and i was still getting bsod. I am on my third factory reset and i am still getting bsod, this is after no steam and no windows update and the only driver update was java to test out whether or not playing games was causing it. I only have games on steam, and i did not want to download it so i logged into an online game (runescape that i used to play a while ago to test it out). Again, i am getting bsod. i have come to a conclusion that bsod is only when playing games now or just drivers, and not related to windows update. Please help me determine the problem as i can still return my pc if it is defective (60 days warranty). The persistent bsod codes are 3b and 1 e.
it is a bone stock pc (it has factory 300w ps, which i think is under powered)
