BSOD at seemingly random times

JackM · 12 Dec 2015

Been getting BSOD for awhile now, have no idea what to do about it, help would be appreciated.
I had a feeling for awhile it was related to my CPU being too hot or possible connected to a TDR event with my AMD Radeon R9 280x GPU, but honestly I don't even know where to begin to start troubleshooting this.

Hi JackM,

Seeing all of the crashes are 0x116 or 0x117 the problem is specific to the GPU.

Please uninstall everything of AMD using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from AMD. Be sure to ONLY install the drivers using custom/advanced options.
