BSOD Playing DOTA2, always error 0x00000007E - atikmdag.sys
Hi,
Laptop Config :
Ideapad Y560
Intel i3 350M
ATI Radeon HD 5730 (Dual switchable model with Intel Card)
Been playing DOTA2 on my Y560 for more than 2 years, few days back all of a sudden a BSOD occurred while i was ALT+Tabbing from game (first occurrence). After this, every 10+(approx) mins in game, a BSOD occurs.
To my knowledge there weren't any windows update, BIOS/Driver update, haven't done in awhile. Have turned everything to manual update.
During the BSOD, it shows it happened either because of atikmdag.sys/atikmpag.sys
All the threads available were asking to update to latest drivers, but the laptop is a dual graphic card switchable model, those drivers in AMD site won't work (as per the site).
Tried OKR (One key recovery, Lenovo feature, restores back to initial backup) still the problem occurs.
Went for leshcat drivers 14.4_WHQL_UnifL, still the problem occurs (currently installed with same, CCC removed). Now, i get BSOD randomly after logging in.
PFA : Contains the necessary package as instructed in BSOD posting instructions.
EDIT : There weren't any replies, couldn't sit idle, did a system recovery to get initial factory settings, hence the drivers are in older version as compared to previous attached package.
Just had another BSOD, this time while streaming video, and few others while i started DOTA2. This time the cause was different, it was 'atipmdag.sys' not the usual 'atikmdag.sys', also it shows 'SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED' in 'BlueScreenView'. I ran the 'dm_log_collector' again, uploaded, the one with the higher timestamp. Need help, Thanks.
