I have been getting the BSOD since November (about 12 times) but it has only happened playing two games: Chivalry Deadliest Warrior and Battlefield 4. I never paid much attention to the crashes while playing Chivalry, because the game has many problems and it occurred infrequently.

I have just purchased Battlefield 4, and have tried playing twice, both times my computer has crashed after about 5 minutes of gameplay with a bluescreen. Bluescreenview by Nirsoft is telling me that it is the hal.dll driver that is the problem. Below is some info on my situation.


Here is the crash info that I have since November.

It appears that you are overclocking.
Code:
CPUID:        "Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570 CPU @ 3.40GHz"
MaxSpeed:     3400
[COLOR=Red]CurrentSpeed: 3502[/COLOR]
As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings.

Let us know the result. We have to decide the further course of action depending on it.
