Frequent BSOD (usually) upon alt-tabbing from games.
Alright, so I have done a little research before making a thread here as I really don't want to waste anyone's time, but I am at wits end here with my problems.
Background:
Around 30th December I bought myself a SSD and installed it into my PC and created a fresh install onto the computer and everything ran fine for about a month then I began to get constant BSOD's (0x3b and an occasional 0x50). After a bit I decided to do a fresh install (about 1-2 weeks ago) to see if it would help the problem but alas, the problem has ensued.
I had not changed anything hardware wise since installing the SSD apart from placing it on a SSD mount.
When using WhoCrashed/BlueScreen view, several drivers keep appearing (ntoskrnl.exe, nvlddmkm.sys, win32k.sys). After seeing the video related problems I potentially though it could be driver related and reverted back to the drivers I was using before this BSOD's with a fresh install (GeForce 332.21 Driver). Sadly after a short period, the BSOD's resumed.
I am quite confused about this issue and even though the WhoCrashed program relates it to a software bug, I am unsure as nothing in my system changed from running fine to BSOD's, and the problem persisted straight after a fresh install (same setup in which the system ran fine for the month before BSODs).
BSOD info:
Most common BSOD:
0x3B (0xC0000005, 0xFFFFF9600026C9ED, 0xFFFFF88007C0E100, 0x0)
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
win32k.sys
Other common BSOD:
0x50 (0xFFFFF900C408D378, 0x1, 0xFFFFF9600031C44E, 0x0)
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
ntoskrnl.exe
Steps take to troubleshoot my problems so far:
I have run Memtest86+ for a total of 6 runs (2 runs with each module, one run with both modules in) and will be leaving it on overnight to make sure.
Attempted to use the driver verifier, however it was using close to 100% of my CPU meaning I couldn't attempt to recreate the steps to cause my BSODs.
Have done quick error checking on both my storage drives.
I have also attached the files grabbed by the SF tool.
In advance, thanks for any help it is much appreciated!
