BSOD when playing most games, some exceptions
Hello all,
I have just created an account on this forum for this specific problem.
5 days ago (thereabouts) our new computer was delivered.
It's a powerful, custom built gaming computer, yet it fails at the thing it was designed to do: play games.
All of these games worked fine on my old XP, but ran badly.
On this new Windows 7 64 bit it is the opposite. The games run brilliantly, then crash.
This is very frustrating for me, because I do not expect a computer of this power to do such a thing.
However, there is an exception:
any games that do not run a 3D engine usually do not crash (Such as FTL: Faster Than Light).
Unfortunately, Minecraft also eventually crashes the computer.
he crashing is random, but will happen eventually, unless I quit the game.
If you need my system specs, tell me where to find them and I will either edit this thread and put them in, or post a reply with the specs.
Also, one thing I have noticed:
I am not sure, but the computer is saying something about an Nvidia Driver error.
Also, I cannot install SP1, as the Readiness Tool does not install either.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope the problem can be fixed soon, as I am becoming frustrated.
P.S: I have just activated Do not Automatically Restart. I will post a crash if I can.
P.P.S: Sorry about my username. I couldn't think of a better one.
