    BSOD while gaming/under heavy load


    Hello everyone,

    For the past few months, I've been getting BSOD mostly while playing various games. The past couple of days, I have been able reliably trigger BSOD while playing SW:Battlefront. The problem is getting worse--I've been able to play SW:B for hours with no issues in past months, but in the last couple days I can trigger BSOD in under 5 mins.

    Ok, so technically it isn't a "blue screen"... it's black. The system does not power down, but I do lose video, and also audio shortly thereafter. Occasionally upon restart, I'll get an error message stating that the system recognizes the problem to be a bluescreen error.

    Per forum instructions, I have attached two recent DM logs.

    I have done very little in the way of troubleshooting prior to this other than some general research. I mainly suspect a bad GPU based on matching problem descriptions on various forums.

    Any help with this issue is appreciated, and of course let me know if more information is required for accurate diagnosis.

    Hello and welocome degen mate some more system specs please System Info - See Your System Specs

    Now some of the dumps are pointing at the GPU and the usual first try is to uninstall the Catalyst Control Centre and use only a the GPU driver only.

    Code:
    SYMBOL_NAME:  atikmdag+2601e
    
    FOLLOWUP_NAME:  MachineOwner
    
    MODULE_NAME: atikmdag
    
    IMAGE_NAME:  atikmdag.sys
    
    DEBUG_FLR_IMAGE_TIMESTAMP:  52312203
    
    FAILURE_BUCKET_ID:  X64_0xA0000001_atikmdag+2601e
    
    BUCKET_ID:  X64_0xA0000001_atikmdag+2601e
