Occasional BSOD apprently when using

Hi casanna,

I have had a look at the dumps and noticed something.
The 0x10E(VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL) mentions the Windows DirectX driver as a possible cause, not a problem since this is expected. However, when going a little deeper I noticed the Windows File system, this gave me a red flag.

Code:

VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL (10e)

Probably caused by : dxgmms1.sys ( dxgmms1!VIDMM_GLOBAL::xWaitForAllEngines+262 )

fffff880`04de8c58  fffff880`0125b34a*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for Ntfs.sys
 Ntfs+0xf34a

The minidump can't provide much more information, so I went through the event logs and noticed a lot of issues with your hard drives. Please run the following tests and post back with results.
