Hello.

I had a few random BSOD playing this game and i had it one just one moment ago. The last BSOD before this one was almost 1 month ago probably.

Files attached.

Thanks!

Welcome

Is this a new computer? How many sticks of ram do you have? Your dump shows memory corruption.

Hey, thank you for fast reply.

Yes, this computer has less than a year. It's dual stick memory.

Passed the memtest86 on both sticks and got 1 red error. Also i passed the memest 86+ on the stick on the slot 1 and didnt get errors. Couldnt pass the memtest86 on the other because i have to dismantle the CPU Fan and its not an easy job :DD


By the way i just found that my GPU drivers were bugged. When i tried to launch the nvidia control panel i got an error, so i installed the last beta drivers on othe nvidia site and im going to unninstal daemon tools too.


Going back to the RAM, could be something related to energy problems? Since i get errors when both sticks are active... Could try to check with memtest the other stick but might be fine since its a pack of 2.


Thanks!

If you're having issues with the video drivers..uninstall them with using Driver Sweeper from this link |MG| Driver Fusion (Driver Sweeper) 1.2.0 Download by going to safe mode from advanced boot http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/666-advanced-boot-options.html.. Now reboot in normal mode and install the latest using option two from here: Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

As for ram.. insert the stick that didn't show the error and see how your computer performs. If you have a friend near by or a neighbor..lend a stick of ram and see how it works on your computer. (probably the one with the 1 error has gone bad)

Let us know :)

No, if the stick is corrupted i will return it to the shop still have warranty. But i have to be sure that it is bad to do that. Is there any way to test each stick without extract? The problem with the fan is that is really big and i cant extract the memory on the slot 1 without dismantle the fan.

Thanks for replys!

OK, good idea. Sorry I didn't ask if it had its warranty.
Doesn't seem like you have an option without dismantling the fan as you say its big. :(

Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.

The goal is to test all the RAM sticks and all the motherboard slots.

Check your motherboard manual to ensure the RAM sticks are in the recommended motherboard slots. Some motherboards have very specific slots required for the number of RAM sticks installed.

If you get errors, stop the test and continue with the next step.

1. Remove all but one stick of RAM from your computer (this will be RAM stick #1), and run Memtest86 again, for 7 passes.
*Be sure to note the RAM stick, use a piece of tape with a number, and note the motherboard slot.
If this stick passes the test then go to step #3.

2. If RAM stick #1 has errors, repeat the test with RAM stick #2 in the same motherboard slot.
*If RAM stick #2 passes, this indicates that RAM stick #1 may be bad. If you want to be absolutely sure, re-test RAM stick #1 in another known good slot.
*If RAM stick #2 has errors, this indicates another possible bad RAM stick, a possible motherboard slot failure or inadequate settings.
3. Test the next stick of RAM (stick #2) in the next motherboard slot.
*If this RAM stick has errors repeat step #2 using a known good stick if possible, or another stick.
*If this RAM stick has no errors and both sticks failed in slot#1, test RAM stick #1 in this slot.
4. If you find a stick that passes the test, test it in all the other motherboard slots.

If Part 2 testing shows errors, and all tests in Part 3 show errors, you will need to test the RAM sticks in another computer and/or test other RAM in your computer to identify the problem.

In this way, you can identify whether it is a bad stick of RAM, a bad motherboard, or incompatibility between the sticks.
   Information
Errors are sometimes found after 8 passes.

   Tip
Do this test overnight, before going to bed.
