BSOD Possibly due to Dual Monitor

Hi mattygg.

It seems to be a grapgics/display related issue on a very old branded laptop.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: Speccy - Publish Snapshot of your System Specs .

Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.
eXtreme Power Supply Calculator
Also let us know the wattage of the PSU.

Update the display driver. But not to the latest one. Install version 13.9 WHQL only.

• Previous AMD Catalyst? Display Drivers

And at last, Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

Let us know the results.

Laptops dont have PSUs.

The PSU wattage is enough!

The GPU temperature seems to be a bit high. Try cleaning the air vents and fan grills. Also see that if the GPU fans are working properly.

Also, have you changed the driver version?

Older than 13.9? No need. It is a very good and stable one.
