BSOD playing World of Warcraft, error 0x116 TDR
Hello
So a few days ago everything was working fine. Then I went to my friends house and I came back the day after. I booted up my PC and started browsing the internet. After a while I decided to fire up World of Warcraft. I logged in and usually the FPS count is pretty low(10 fps) untill the game loads up completely. But this time the FPS never went up even though the game was fully loaded. So then the PC kinda froze... It would update the mouse movement maybe like once every minute. So I restarted it via the button.
It tried to boot up but then without even reaching the login screen I got this BSOD. But this BSOD was weird as it was really slow. The text was written very slow all over the screen and the letters was ontop of eachother :S Then the background changed from blue to black and I got all these weird white stripes all over the screen!
Again.. rebooted. This time it made it to the login screen where I logged in. Then it got really slow again... The login sound was lagging(?) stuttering(?) but then it went back to normal. I decided to update my drivers from the 337.88 version to 340.52. Problem still persists but now I get framedrops in the games before it crashes and I have to reboot. Rebooting works fine.
I have this program on my PC called whocrashed that analyses BSOD logs. I have a few logs from the last couple of days and this is what they show.

So I did some googling and looked around the nvidia forums and I have found these two interesting threads that seems to be related.

So I have updated my BIOS and my drivers, and installed the Intel Management Interface aswell as enabled HPET in both the BIOS and the PC.
I downloaded the WinTimerTester and before I enabled HPET I got a result of around 3.00MHz. After I enabled it in the PC(was already enabled in the BIOS) I got around 14MHz
But the problem still persists.
So I decided to run both MSI afterburner and the DPC Latency Checker and have them running next to the WoW client so I could monitor them as I play.
So I played for around 20 minutes and nothing happened but I would assume that this is because I ran such a small window of WoW. After the 20 minutes I maximized it to almost full 1080p(I always run it in windowed mode) and then after a few minutes the PC almost instantly froze. But before it frooze(along with the sound and everything) I managed to open the DPC latency checker(didn't have time for MSI Afterburner) and I took this picture with my phone.

So really now I have no idea as what I can do regarding this. I have tried to downgrade the drivers to the 332.32 driver and the problem still persists. I have tried a solution I found on the MSDN forums that had me add a value into the registry
Open regedit then -
Navigate to -
H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Graphics Drivers.
Right click on the open field and click on New / DWORD (32bit) Value,
Then name it: TdrDelay -> double click it -> Set the value to 8.
Problem is still here but now I can play for somewhat longer(maybe an hour or two?)
I have tried running prime95 for 30 minutes to check for any problems relating to the CPU. It just ran for the 30 minutes and then I stopped it. No problems.
Tommorrow I will run a stress test with Furmark for about 250 000 frames and see what happens. I would do it now but I soon have to go to bed and I'd rather not have my GPU heat up my room so much.
I followed the BSOD tutorial and uploaded the file created by the program provided.
Thanks for any help!!
