    BSOD occuring randomly, playing games or doing nothing at all.


    Hello guys.

    First a bit of info:
    My setup is from May 2014, nothing has been changed yet and no problems untill now.
    The problem started on the 9th of June.
    Problem started as anti-power surge shutdowns.
    11th of June I disabled the Anti-power surge in BIOS.
    Days to come afterwards contained multiple shutdowns due to BSOD.

    I have tried running all forms of virus scans with multiple software.
    I have tried running defrags and everything else to ease up on the system.

    The temperatures on the motherboard and CPU is maxing at 60 degrees celsius, but the BSOD can occure while the CPU is at 35 degrees celsius and the Motherboard 28 degrees celsius.
    All of the voltages is within range as well.

    I have tried taking my system back to a date before some windows updates, which were installed before the occurances of BSOD and power surge, without any luck.

    At this point I have the dump files and the system specs, which will be uploaded along with this post. Please do comment if you have anything on mind.

    it seems to be your graphics card, try the card on another computer if you have one available and if the same thing happens, it is time for a new card

    How did you get to this conclusion and is there any way in which I can test the graphics card without having another computer??

    the dump file indicated the corresponding driver file and one string even explicitly mentioned the graphics driber

    My friend helped me troubleshoot the graphics card.with his graphics card in my setup it still shuts down. Therefore my conclusion is that the problem is not solved by changing the graphics card.

    seems like your graphics driver slowed down and couldn't reecover, don't know why your friend's card would also do that, unless there is another issue that has a knock-on effect with the graphics driver, I will continue to investigate and get back to you

    for example for my computer I would go to dell.com
    for hp you would go to: hp.com
    for gateway you would go to: us.gateway.com

    and find your product and you should be able to find drivers and software
