BSOD playing Diablo 3

[robertju1]

Hey,

I am getting BSODs when playing Diablo 3. I don't have this issue with any other games. Only the most recent 2 BSODs are because of Diablo 3. The error was atikmdag.sys, so I was figuring there would be new drivers. The issue is there were no new drivers except from the beta drivers. Should i take these or is there any other cause?

Thanks in advance,
Robert

I'm not going to look at all of them because there are a lot of BSODs. However, you are correct in that the last 2 BSODs are related to your graphics driver. You should try rolling back the driver to a previous stable release, I would not recommend updating to beta drivers as they are buggy and aren't stable which can cause more problems.

I would also run a disk check as you appear to have disk corruption on your main HDD. Here's how to run a disk check.

If changing the driver version doesn't work and a disk check finds nothing then I would run memtest for memory issues.

Post the results.
