Are your video card drivers up-to-date? Please update if not, then check if your system still BSOD's.

Yes I just downloaded AMD's "Driver Autodetect" and it says that my drivers are current.

Did you follow instructions here???

PLEASE help me with recurring BSOD problems! Get them while gaming.

I'll be following those steps 1 by 1, trying to induce a crash, and then I'll keep going down the list until (hopefully) the crash stops. I'll update periodically.

Completed so far:
1. I'm downloading and installing ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Win7 32&64-bit
Update: After downloading ATK0110 driver, my games were running smooth all night last night, but this morning it began crashing and I got a bluescreen. So far, stability seems better, but still not perfect.

2. I'm running sfc/scannow in an elevated command prompt.
Update: It said Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

3. I'm enabling Driver Verifier now.
Update: I could not even log in to windows after enabling Driver Verifier. All I could see on my screen once it got to the log in, was thick blue rectangular streaks all the way across my screen.

Hello Crowdd.

The BIOS is very backdated there.

Code:

BiosVersion = ASUS M2NPV-VM ACPI BIOS Revision 1103
BiosReleaseDate = 09/06/2007

If possible, plan to update it. Get the version 5005(though it's a beta, but its the latest), dated 2010.07.15
Get it from ASUS - M2NPV-VM

Then let us know which driver you want to update.

As per your motherboards specifications ...

Code:

 Chipset : NVIDIA GeForce 6150 + nForce 430

But not finding any later version of nforce 430 series update. It seems to be not supported anymore. No chipset update from motherboards page. You may have a look in Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers
