BSOD in addition to computer freezes and monitor turn offs
Hi, my 7.5-year-old Windows 7 i5 Gateway desktop has been acting up for the past week. It would sometimes:
1) Freeze requiring a reboot
2) The monitors (I have 2) would go blank by themselves.
3) BSOD's
I system-restored to an earlier date 6-18-18 a couple of days ago (around 7-1, I think), but it didn't help.
I've followed all the instructions listed here (Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions - Windows 7 Help Forums), but it didn't provide much info so I also did the steps here with your SF Diagnostic Tool (and where the tool didn't show any info, I manually put those in).
I've included both folders in my attached zip file.
Please help. I have no idea what's happening. When I boot in Safe Mode, the computer runs fine so this means it's a software (driver?) issue, right, not a hardware issue. Thanks!
