Hello, and welcome to SevenForums!

Your NVidia Graphics driver seems to be causing the issue:

But here's what I find interesting:

Code:

Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
Chip type: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family

Your NVidia Card is not showing up as your main GPU, although it is recognized as a component:

Code:

Name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670M
Device ID: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1213&SUBSYS_10CB1462&REV_A1\4&5435C8C&0&0008

It may be that your BIOS isn't set up for an off-board GPU like your GeForce GTX 670M. Here's how you can try to resolve this:

1) Restart your computer. Immediately after it turns on, you should see on the bottom of your screen "Press <Key> to enter setup", or "BIOS Setup: <Key>". Repeatedly tap the key it says to press, until you get to a blue screen (NOT a BSOD) with information about your computer.

WARNING: The BIOS contains critical information that, if tampered with incorrectly, could FATALLY DAMAGE YOUR PC. Please follow these next instructions to the best of your ability, and try not to explore in there!

2) Use the side arrow keys to select "Advanced", "Advanced Settings", or similar. If it automatically goes there, continue. If it doesn't, press enter.

3) Select "North Bridge Configuration", "Video Configuration", "Internal Graphics", or similar, depending on what kind of BIOS you have.

4) Select "Primary Video Controller", "Primary Video Adapter", "Initiate Graphic Adapter", or similar. Press enter if it does not enter right away.

5) Select "PCI", "PCIe", or similar to switch to your external graphics card, pressing enter if needed.

6) Return to the main "Advanced" page. From there, use the side arrow keys to select "Exit", and scroll to "Save Changes and Exit". Press Enter, and your computer should now restart with the main graphics controller as your external card.

Best of luck,

PeregrineX

Ok so i finally managed to get into the bios yay.
But when i go under the advanced tab i dont have the options thatvyou mentiod.
I got 5 options: pcl latency timer,sata mode selection, intel speedstep , i charger and usb configurations.
What now ?

And another Bluescreen today.
Cant change the Bios option because most of it is hidden and I already tried some key combbination.

Anyone any help?

Bump

Did a recovery to factory settings and still no succes.
Does this mean it is a Hardware problem?

Hello,
Anyone has any news on this issue? I am having the exactly same thing!
