BSOD Help
-
There aren't anyway's of uninstalling Direct X, I wanted to try this already as I already have the most up to date version of direct X.
I also have the latest NVidia Drivers, because of this problem, the first thing I tried were to update DirectX and graphics drivers.
I ran anti virus/spyware/malware after the drivers not working, but I'm doing it again just in case. (Avast, A(squared), and Malwarebytes)
I'm running the /scannow as I type this, and the first thing I do when I finish will be to run memtest again I'm going to try and leave it for at least 10 passes

Sorry Tuan, its 6am and I haven't slept yet, for burrowing through the internet looking for a fix to this.
Yes, Rapport is gone.
Removing A(squared) and Avast now. Installing MSE as we speak.
And the scan now completed with no trouble;

FurMark Ran my GPU to over 115 degrees C, so I switched it off, I dont want it to blow a hole in the side of my case lol.
I just ran DiRT2 which I have as a STEAM game, that sets up DirexctX specifically for each game, and low and behold a crash 15 min in. Dump is attached, but now I know for sure its all games.
I'm going to run this CPU stress tester (StressCPU v2.0) and see what that does to my machine, hopefully that will reveal some new info. Folding@home - DownloadUtils
Either war I'm off for now.

Seems Tuan had you doing it, I was going to suggest FurMark.
Because your crashing pretty steadily at 10-15 minutes, I might guess this is a heat issue with your GPU or CPU.
See if you can run FurMark for 60 seconds (set it to benchmark).
Then try running Prime95 Blend Test for a few hours.
If either one crashes you, it COULD be a heat issue.

Right, I ran the CPU stress tester this morning, and it BSOD'd my computer within 5 min. I haven't set up the debugging yet so I don't know what it says.
@ Lordbob, I ran FurMark and it passed the benchmarks at all levels of MSAA, its as I left it for a while as a stability test, and after 30 min it was at 115 degrees.

TheFrin, this DEFINITELY shows that something is wrong with the CPU. If you didn't test with Prime95, give it a try please. It can usually help pinpoint the problem.
