    MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION only seems to happen during Skyrim gameplay


    Hi everyone. Troubleshooting for a PC that's not mine but am currently using, so if you need any specs please ask and don't look the specs linked to this account!

    Basically, my partner's PC freezes and experiences mentioned BSOD during skyrim gameplay and no other time. The game works for varying lengths of time before causing the crash. He said it's been happening for a while.

    The BSOD froze at 45% when it was attempting to compile the dump, and we had to turn the PC off. There are no recent dumps in the minidump folder, so I have a feeling this has been happening every time.

    Other more graphically demanding games work fine on this computer, so we are not sure why it only happens in Skyrim.

    Specs:
    Processor information: (I think he is overclocking, which I know nothing about, so have a screenshot)

    Motherboard: ASUSTek P6T SE

    RAM information:

    AMD Radeon HD 7900:

    Running 64-bit Win 7 of course. If there's any information you're missing please let me know.
