Help, Can't find BSOD Solution

MattGamerHD · 29 Dec 2012

I built a computer for Christmas and installed a load of games, now its after Christmas and all the games are installed and I'm ready to play however I load a game up for instance, Saints Row The Third and after a maximum of 2 minutes the computer fans go crazy and I loose signal to my monitor. Therefore resulting in me having to power it down. I turn it back on and everything is normal however I have a popup window saying windows had to shutdown ect, and mentions blue screen in it. Now I'm presuming this is the blue screen of death. I've searched around on the internet for people to say uninstall the drivers and then update to the newest ones or clean out your registry. I've done all this and it doesn't work. So basically I'm in desperate need of someones help to find a solution for me.

P.s I have the minidumps if you need them

Computer Specs:
Intel Core i5 2400
MSI Nvidia GTX 660 Twin Frozr 3
4GB Corsair Vengence Ram
320GB HDD
500W PSU
GIGABYTE H61M-S2PV

Thank you

Hello MattGamerHD, Welcome to SF

First off if your OCing in anyway stop, return everything to stock settings for the purposes of testing

If you havent already, fill in your system specs so we know what we are dealing with
System Info - See Your System Specs

Make sure you have read the guide on asking for help with BSOD so you know what we need

And if necessary set your machine to create minidumps (Method 2 Step 2 easiest IMO)
Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD

Run some scans to check against virus or infection
Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller
Windows Defender Offline

Run some basic hardware tests
RAM - Test with Memtest86+
Disk Check (windows based check)
Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure (bootable disk check)

Give us some dumps and we can have a look
