BSOD during gameplay, BCCode: a
Hi guys,
So, a few weeks ago my girlfriend knocked over a glass of water which poured into my PC. I immediately switched it off at the wall, let it dry out for a few days, and then turned it back on. Everything seemed to work fine, surprisingly!
... Until I tried gaming. I don't game much, but I do enjoy flight simulators and particularly X-Plane. I played this, and for about 5 minutes it was fine, then it would cause BSOD. I tried reinstalling, and then instead of causing BSOD, the game would just crash (still not ideal!).
I then tried playing Kerbal Space Program, and after a while, it caused BSOD too. I figured it was my graphics card that was perhaps damaged (this would make sense, as this is where most of the water would have landed during the accident). So I swapped it out today for a brand new MSI NVidia GTX 960 Gaming 2G (replacing my ASUS NVidia GTX 750 Ti).
I am now trying to play X-Plane again, and I'm getting BSOD again.
As I said, the water damage does not seem to have affected any other aspect of the PC's performance. Every other task seems to work just fine, as before. All hard drives are still fully accessibly, I have noticed no drop in CPU performance, all motherboard interfaces (USB, Ethernet, etc) are still functional.
