    BSOD in windows 7 x64 during games


    So I upgraded to Win 7 and seem to get blue screens wile i am trying to play games, it doesn't seem to be fussy as to which game it is, be it MW2, dragonage, crysis etc
    as far as i can tell i have installed the most up to date drivers i can find for the graphics card mobo & sound card and updated DirectX

    reboots offering safemode and gives me the dumpfiles on log on, stuck the .dmp and .xml docs in a .rar as the uploader wouldn't let me upload them as they were
    if anyone can help it would be appreciated as i have trawled the internet with no great success.

    may be a noobie idea and may just be throwing money at it but if its running out of memory for whatever reason would sticking another 4GB in solve the problem?

    Hi. These drivers are old and need to be removed from the system or updated to 2009 versions:

    If you upgraded this machine, I strongly suggest a clean install instead.

    Whatever game this if for - "iw4sp.exe" - see if there's a patch available for it.

    yeah i did a clean install a couple of days ago, and a couple before that too. hunted down all the drivers i could.
    how do i go about uninstalling the drivers listed?

    attached a few more dumps for the last few hours

    oh and the iw4sp.ex is COD6 which is a generally a pain in the A anyway

    Use the device manager to uninstall. You probably will have to set it to view hidden devices and look at the non plug and play section.

    Google them to find out what they are first.

    If you can't figure out which they are in the device manager, set a restore point and then delete the files themselves in safe mode.

    ok i think i have un-installed them, google showed them to be non essential windows sys files. will see what happens.


    ** edit ** still crashing

    may just unplug all but my main drive, and do a fresh install see what that does

    Had a poke around in bios, found that it was auto overclocked and set on "turbo" switched it back to standard and was able to play for a couple of hours with out any issues.
