BSOD - Happens at different times

The latest dump files we have are in January of this year. Please follow this tutorial and make sure yoursystem is configured to create dump files. Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD.

Although it was in January, the one of most interest was this one, dated Jan 7.

Code:

Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.
BugCheck A0000001, {5, 0, 0, 0}
Probably caused by : atikmdag.sys ( atikmdag+277ce )
Followup: MachineOwner

That code is always caused by the Graphics card or Driver. I'm sure you have updated the driver since then, but are you still having graphics problems?

Also, please go to your motherboard's web site and update your motherboard drivers. Some of your USB drivers were out of date at that time.

Also please,
Open a elevated command prompt ( click start, type cmd in the search box, right click on the cmd entry and select run as administrator) in the black box that opens, copy/paste sfc /scannow. If you decide to type it, notice the space between the sfc and the /. It is a system file checker which will scan your system files and attempt to correct any missing or corrupt files. What we want are the results to say windows found no integrity violations. If it says files were found but could not be repaired, close the box, reboot and run it again, after opening the administrative command prompt. You may have to reboot and run it three times for it to repair all system files. If it can't repair them after 3 reboots, let us know.

Please fill out your System Specs

   Information

Your System Specs will help us to help you, and doing it in this manner will make them available to all helpers in every post and keep us from hunting for them. We ask that you fill them out in as much detail as possible including Desktop or Laptop, Model number if it is an OEM computer and all components with the Manufacturer and Model number if possible.

If you will go to your last post and click the 'System Specs' in the bottom left of the post, you will find a link to update your system specs. Please fill those out in as much detail as possible. If you would like to know what we would like, you can click 'My System Specs' at the bottom left of this post to see mine. If you do not know what your components are, this will help you accomplish this task. System Info - See Your System Specs

Please configure it to create small memory dumps. Please go to C:/windows and look for Minidump folder. If there is not one there, create one. Your page should look like this.

We need the dump files to be able to find out what is happening. If you have anything overclocked, please set everything to default values. In C:/Windows you should find a Minidump folder like this
Attachment 323668

That's correct. Unfortunately without that file, we have nothing to work with. I would suggest you updating all your motherboard drivers from MSI's web site and if you are overclocking anything, return it to default values. Also, make sure your ram is set to Manufacturer's specs with regard to frequency, timings and voltage.

The latest dumps we have are from 7-12 and 7 13

That's your AMD Graphics driver and you can see if there is an updated driver from http://support.amd.com/en-us/download But there may not be, but you can reinstall the driver and make sure you do a cleanest install you can by following this Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling

This is directX you can see if you have the most recent DirectX for Windows 7 (11.1) and download the newest version if you need it here How to install the latest version of DirectX

Sure it could be because of a faulty card, But I'm not sure it is that yet. How are the temps on the card while gaming or during heavy use? Many people use Furmark (Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark) to stress the card, but I use Ungine Heaven (Download Heaven Benchmark | Unigine: real-time 3D engine (game, simulation, visualization and VR)) to test for stability. It seems much more realistic and is much mire interesting to watch. I would use the extreme presets and run the benchmark. Watch your temps very closely with either one as they will rise rapidly. If they get too high, shut the test down. Also watch for any artifacts while the test is running.

If you don't have a GPU monitoring program, try MSI Afterburner(MSI Afterburner) It will allow you to set a custom fan profile as well as on screen display so you can see it during games.
