BSOD atikmpag.sys related - Fresh Install of Windows

[Zayveon]

Hi. Attached is the .zip created from the tool listed HERE.

Constant BSOD's whenever I'm multitasking with dual-monitors, a game on the primary monitor and a media player on the secondary. Seems to be fine if I'm only doing one or the other.

This problem showed up about three months ago, completely out of the blue. Otherwise my system had been running fine for the past 8 months prior, with no hardware changes at all.
I have formatted my computer recently and reinstalled windows and ofcourse installed the most up to date AMD drivers, I thought that finally it would be fixed but this morning it happened again! So here I am.

Almost to the point where I'd like to throw my computer out a very high window!

Hi Zayveon,

Your dump wasn't helpful (although it points to your graphics driver) so upon further inspection of your other files it looks like your OS is activated with an OEM SLP key that can only (legally) be attached to an ASUS computer. Your motherboard is Gigabyte so this key is not valid.

Where did you buy your product key form?

Hi Gator,

Thanks for taking the time to reply and inspect the zip.
I purchased the bulk of my computer + Windows 7 from a local part store, nothing seemed fishy at the time and it never crossed my mind to check into it as it all seemed above board.

I'm going to call the store I got it from and give them crap and get a refund

How do I go about fixing that? Of course I'll need to purchase another copy of Windows, from Microsoft this time, but will I need to reformat or would I be able to enter it on this current install?

You shouldn't need to reformat. Just buy the product key and change it to a legitimate one. I would demand a product key from them or tell them you will turn them into microsoft.
