Random BSOD, crash in Civilization V and Sims3 when gets crowded.
Hello everyone, my desktop computer has this problem since months of time.
Problem has begun with civilization V, where the game randomly crashed to dekstop without any error messages. I have made prime 95 and temperature tests, they are at normal temperatures. And Prime 95 doesn't give any problems when it's not overclocked. I used to overclock my 2100mhz phenom x4 to 2470mhz where it was barely stable. I didn't increase the voltages much, that i believe I didn't harm the anything. Ram's are 2x1gb high and 2x1gb these are different in latency value.(was 2x1, then bought 2 more which were different in latency, but same Adata brand)
But in bios it's set to lower performance latency settings.
I am using 2x750gb raid0 system with onboard nvidia raid controller.
I can explain the game crashes like this; In Civilization V, when map isn't crowded, it crashes every 40 minute. When Map fills up, many cities, many units, many resources for the computer. Crashes every 10 minute.
And for sims 3, it crashes more often if i make a large lot with lot's of resources.
I used to play battlefield 3 on this computer a year ago, and it wasn't crashing back then.
And the weird thing. This is here since a pretty long time, i don't remember. (3 years maybe) My computer has a weird issue where, if electricty cutout occurs in the house, or if i shut down UPS and turn it on again, "AND IF" i turn on computer without waiting much, it sometimes makes a weird startup where it doesn't power keyboard, and it doesn't detect hard drive(kind of a no boot found error) . If this happens, i shut down computer, cut power, re engage power, wait 10 seconds before powering up. This usually fixes it. (Usually because a year before it used to corrupt my computer very badly where windows could miss some files and didn't boot, i needed to reinstall)
Today and yesterday night (both in 05.05.2013) I have tested with verifier.exe and when it boots it used to crash. The settings on driver verifier are as in the link below
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
It didn't boot windows with this settings. Always bsod.(05.03 ones) (I have removed ppjoy and daemon tools after that) (to add, I have selected non-microsoft applications with verifier)
Then I have changed settings with only standard options. And it didn't give any bsod since then. Even when game crashes it doesn't give bsod. (It normally just sometimes give bsod, but usualy CTD)
