Hey folks, here's my basic info:
Is Windows 7 . . .
- 64 bit
- original installed OS on system
- student version of OS, counts as full retail (can install on multiple machines)
- All components are approximately 6 months old
- Reinstalled OS recently (2-3wks ago?) to see if that would fix problem... did not work
Other info: The BSOD seems to occur when I'm playing video games, but it doesn't always happen only then. Thinking it was my original graphics card I RMA'ed it for a new one, recieved a different card and problem still exists. I also tried a different graphics card which used DX10 and the problem subsides a little bit (the BSOD occurs, but not as often).
I'm almost positive this is a hardware or hardware compatibility problem as reformatting the drive and reinstalling the OS didn't fix it... but you folks are the experts!
Let me know if I forgot something or you need something else to troubleshoot.
Thanks in advance,
Josh
