BSOD only while playing full screen games. Aprox 10m in

[JeremyLT]

I have developed a problem some time overnight with playing games. About 10m into playing, I get BSOD.
I briefly checked over my drivers and have not found any problems.
I appreciate any help.

Welcome to 7F. All of your dumps are blaming your nVidia Graphics filter driver.

It looks like it could do with updating. Either check nVidia or your machine vendor's website for an updated version.

Thank you!!
I will reply if it is successful.

 

[Boozad]

You're welcome. Let us know how you get on.

 

[JeremyLT]

Sigh... Just happened again.
I installed the latest driver again using the "clean install" feature, which cleared the precious versions and replaced it with that one.
I will upload the latest dump once I zip it.

Perhaps try the previous driver?

 

[JeremyLT]

Not the old driver either.

 

[Boozad]

OK you're getting 0x116 STOPs, VIDEO_TDR_ERROR (Timeout Detection Recovery) which points solely to the GPU whether it be drivers, heat, power issues or the card itself among other possibilities. If driver replacements aren't curing the problem we need to look at other areas.

Firstly we'll look at heat issues. Can you check your temperatures at idle and under load and report them back here. Let me know if you need any GPU temperature monitoring software.

 

[JeremyLT]

I will need one, yes.
(also, I will be out for the day, so lets resume later, thank you fifor the assistance!)

 

[JeremyLT]

OH MY!!
I just remembered the last time I had some major fps issues with my computer, due to overheating I blew out my fan area on my laptop and a tun of dust blew out (but I thought it to be because of where my brother was playing - a super dusty table outside)
so I "dust-off" 'd my fan!
BAM! So much dust came out! I hope that was the problem.. but I don't recall the heat getting that bad though to be honest..
we will see!

 

[Boozad]

That could well be the problem. Let us know how it goes.

 

[JeremyLT]

argg... I thought that was it..
it went again

 

[Boozad]

Please upload the latest dump in a new log.

 

[JeremyLT]

here it is

 

[Boozad]

Another 0x116. It's strange how the nVidia Filter driver is being flagged and the nVidia graphics driver itself. If you download MSI Afterburner that will monitor your GPU temps for you.

 

[JeremyLT]

driver updater

Well then...
(I finally found some free time to resume)
I decided to give the update driver software that was linked in your message a go.. mid process of its udupdating.. I have experienced another BSOD. This time however, is in a lupe. I cannot boot without BSOFBSOD. I am currently attempting a startup repair that actually.. has officially failed... please... help

 

[Boozad]

Do you have onboard graphics you can utilise?

 

[JeremyLT]

well... I was forced to reinstall windows!
I do not appear to have abany issues.
thank you for everything

 

[Boozad]

Sorry I was late getting back to you, the time zones didn't do us any favours there unfortunately. Keep us posted with how the new installation goes.

 

[JeremyLT]

No worries man,
I realise after reading that my message sounds a little rude. My appologies, It was fully genuine! Thank you for your time.
So far so good, I think it was just time for a wipe.
