BSOD during gaming only, error 0x00000116
Before anyone reads this any further I need to first and foremost say, I am very limited computer intelligent. I game, browse the internet, and occasionally make use of my laptop for studying. Bought my computer in Jan 2012, had some major issues with it a couple of months later (TOSHIBA after 3 days finally agreed with me it needed to be sent in) and they sent me back a nice working unit again (pretty sad after only 3 months). Well in November of 2013 after an update to some GPU drivers I started getting some screwy BSOD error. Same one, every time... and increasingly infuriating each time. System reinstall (oh god redownloading everything was awful) drivers uninstall reinstall and have sat reading other people's BSOD's that were similar or exactly the same.
I've had some success playing some games for a few hours thinking that a fix I tried worked, but only to have it fail again later. Not overclocking (in fact I'm under clocking as it was one of the potential fixes I read)
I refuse to believe my GPU is fried after I sat and played ESO for hours perfectly no screen tearing or any abnormal screen glitches after some tweaking, but eventually... it comes back each time. Seems odd to have it BSOD after working fine after a few days... and then going back to crap. I've tried running furmark and in all cases it runs slowly for a minute or two and BSOD comes up.
For anyone who replies to this xD please be patient and dumb down your instructions. I am a very dense girl who just wants to play her beloved video games and frustrated!
Thanks in advance!
(Hopefully I've filled everything out correctly and the attachment works!)
