    Often Random BSOD


    Hey, I get often BSODs while playing games or sometimes while just browsing the internet. I'm not exactly sure what causes it. I have 2 dump files, one dating 2-2-2014 and the other 2-7-2014. It happens fairly often and gets obnoxious.



    Thank you!

    Arvin, I recommend installing a genuine version of Windows 7. Counterfeit installations such as yours contain modified system files that make the installation behave in an unexpected manner. This makes diagnosing BSOD's an exercise in futility.

    Clean up your HOSTS file

    Well I got it from my friend who said it was a copy of a legitimate copy, with a CD key aswell so I didn't doubt it. I'll try cleaning the HOSTS files and seeing if that'll help.

    Thank you

    Nah, cleaning the HOSTS file won't solve the problem. The only solution is to install a genuine version of Windows 7.

    Yeah I'll reinstall it with another (I'm hoping genuine) copy and hope it all fixes. Thanks for the help you guys.
