    You have not generated any .dmp files since May 9th, but your previous crashes from early last month may be helpful. They were all Video TDR Error crashes:

    • H2SO4 said:
      These are all stop 0x116 VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE conditions.

      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.

Closely follow the first three posts of usasma's thread outlining STOP 0x116: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR troubleshooting and proceed through each step. Let us know if you need further help.

    Have you run the SFC /SCANNOW command?

    Did you run all three tests from Prime95 for a few hours each?

    I would recommend that you Repair Install Windows 7.

    Use steps 1-3 in Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 if you need installation media. Also backup any important data in case the repair install does not go smoothly.
