BSOD more frequent
Hello
Hope someone can help me before I tear out whats left of my hair. Three weeks ago while playing BF3 on line the screen would freeze and I would have to reboot and it will run fine. A few days the pc would reset and/or freeze. Now I get BSOD whatever task I'm doing.
Blue screen viewer reports different bug check string each time but the bad driver is always ntoskrnl.exe. I have ran memtest on each stick ( 1x4 gb and 1 x2 gb) for at least 6 hours on each stick and they pass, put my old graphics card back in but I got DXdiag error, ran Western Digital HDD diagnostics tool and that was ok, reintalled drivers, reinstalled Windows 7 but to no avail.
One thing I have noticed is sometimes when I reboot after a crash the fans spin but pc doesnt boot. If I take out the stick of ram and put it back in the pc boots up.
Temps when gaming: gpu - 65C max, CPU 45C
Update: PC will not post at all this morning. Fans spinning but no beep. Checked PSU and voltages areok.
Thanks for taking the time to read.
