Hello dmdgamer, and welcome to Seven Forums.

Please read the instructions here: Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions, and post back with the needed information. One of our BSOD experts should be by later when able to further help.

 

[dmdgamer]

ok hope I did it right

Well your latest .dmp file indicates memory corruption which is generally caused by failing RAM.
Can you please run memtest86 for at least 8 passes to scan for errors.
Follow these instructions on how to run it.

If you have more than one RAM stick please move the RAM around the DIMM slots in the motherboard to determine whether it is a bad slot or bad RAM

You also appear to have HDD issues, can you please run a disk check to scan for bad sectors.
Please follow these instructions on how to run a disk check.

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/433-disk-check.html

Can you then run Seatools for windows to test for a failing HDD.
Follow these instructions.

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/313457-seatools-dos-windows-how-use.html

EDIT: Do not run these two disk tests if you have an SSD. Let me know the results of the previous tests before doing these 2. I need to double check these tests are suitable for SSDs

 

[dmdgamer]

I ran memtest last night for 10 passes with no errors. One of my HDD failed a few test on sea tools so just unplugged that one for now. I re-installed my graphics drivers but still having issues in games like glitches appearing and some bluescreens.

 

[Thedoctor44]

If you have any more BSODs please upload them in a zip archive.

 

[dmdgamer]

here is the latest blue screens zip

 

[Thedoctor44]

There are no new dump files in the archive. Do you have new dump files in your C:/Windows/Minidump directory?

 

[dmdgamer]

here is the latest bluescreen i got in titanfall

 

[Thedoctor44]

Hmm more memory managment. Can you please run Driver Verifier to look for bad drivers.
Follow these instructions.

http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/101379-driver-verifier-enable-disable.html

When you select the drivers please do not select the drivers for Microsoft Cooperation, Unknown or Macrovision

 

[dmdgamer]

when i set up driver verifier and reset the screen goes funny see attached

 

[dmdgamer]

oh and here is the latest dump files of recent bluescreens

 

[Thedoctor44]

You have a bugcheck that points to a graphics display crash. Generally these are caused by faulty hardware. Can you please disable driver verifier and run furmark. I know you get a display crash when running verifier but we should make sure it's not hardware first.

how long should i run the test for? the card temp leveled out at 103 degrees so got scared and stopped was only like 2 mins didn't crash or see any artifacts

 

[dmdgamer]

Hello Doctor, I have moved my ram around on the motherboard but still getting BSOD. Here are the latest dump files from the last few days. Thanks for your help on trying to diagnose this error.

 

[Thedoctor44]

The dump files indicate memory corruption which is mainly due to RAM.
RAM however should cause a display crash like in the picture above.
Your GPU is very hot even for a stress test, the max mine gets to is 80*C.
Do you have enough fans in your PC?
Do you have enough airflow?

 

[dmdgamer]

So do you think I should maybe get some new RAM? Here is the case I have (see attached) and their is a 200mm fan in the top. Could do with a good clean to be honest it's rather dusty. I moved the gpu into the lower pci-e slot but it's right above the psu fan not much space in between them not sure if that could cause issues.

 

[Thedoctor44]

Can you not run Driver Verifier at all?
I can't decide what the resolution could be, it sounds like hardware but the fact that you only get the display crash when driver verifier is enabled makes me believe it's a driver issue.

 

[dmdgamer]

Well the last two times I enable driver verifier I restarted my PC and after a few minutes the screen goes funny like that picture I uploaded in a previous post. Then I try restarting and get the same issues have just enough time to disable verifier then it's ok again.

 

[Thedoctor44]

Hmm that's a strange one.
Can you try furmark again, I have my doubts about it being only software.
