    BSOD at Random Times Frequently


    Hi,
    My computer is fairly new, within 8 months old. Here are the specs

    AMD FX 4100 Quad Core 3.62 ghz
    GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3 AM3+ AMD
    G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3
    EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR GeForce GTX 550 Ti
    Western Digital Caviar Blue WD3200AAKX 320GB 7200 RPM

    Randomly my PC will just BSOD and reboot. I've scanned my PC with AVG and Avast, nothing report. I have rolled back to a restore that was 2 months old and it still does this. I'm not sure what else to do now. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    nVidia display driver is crashing here.
    Code:
    BugCheck A, {600dd, 2, 1, fffff800030b00c5}
    
    *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for nvlddmkm.sys
    *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for nvlddmkm.sys
    Probably caused by : nvlddmkm.sys ( nvlddmkm+1dae55 )
    
    Followup: MachineOwner
    ---------
    Apply the latest version of nVidia display driver.
    You may download it directly, from our forum link Latest NVIDIA ForceWare Video Drivers Windows 7; or you may opt for the Option 2 of Drivers- Download NVIDIA Drivers for “Automatically find drivers for my NVIDIA products” (it requires java installed).



    Using two antivirus programs at the same time is a very dangerous habit. It will not only make your system unprotected, but also make troubles there.
    Code:
    Start Menu\Programs\avast! Free Antivirus
    Start Menu\Programs\AVG
    Uninstall AVG using AVG Remover. Uninstall Avast using Avast Uninstall Utility. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.
    Download, install and update those, and then run full system scans with both of them, one by one. Moreover, scan the system for possible virus infection with the following programs, too.


    Let us know the results.

    Thank you.
    I had trouble uninstalling AVG and Avast as my PC would randomly BSOD on me and restart. But eventually I got them both uninstalled and installed Microsoft Security Essentials as well as using Defender Offline to scan. There were a few trojans that popped up and Defender removed them.
    I updated the driver for my graphics card - hopefully this will fix the problem. Ill let it run for a couple days to see if it happens again.

    Again, thank you!

    Got it.

    I scanned my computer with it this morning - it found a one bug and then deleted it.

    Thank you!
