BSOD playing full screen games, error 0x00000116

[Avathar]

Random computer lockup to BSOD at random times while playing games in fullscreen mode. I've updated my video drivers with a full uninstall with driver sweeper but the crashes continue. I've also run a memory test and believe that my memory is fine. Any further assistance with solving this problem would be greatly appreciated!

Windows 7 Enterprise, 64bit
Original installed OS
Full Retail

System age: 8 months
I have not reinstalled the OS

Intel Core i7-2600k
8Gb RAM
ATI HD 5970 GPU

I've attached the information requested in the FAQ thread - if there's anything else I can supply to help solve the issue, please let me know.

Thanks in advance for any advice you folks can give.

Your Graphic Driver was blamed. By doing the below tutorial, you'll secure a clean install of it.

i) Make your way to ATI Drivers - Downloads and download the latest driver for your card, save it to your desktop for instance
ii) Uninstall the Graphic driver you currently have and all its extensions (do not reboot yet)
iii) Download Driver Sweeper
iv) Get to safe mode (without network) and search for Driver Sweeper in your rb:
v) Select all the ATI components and analyse them
vi) Clean them, head into Windows without internet and install the driver you've downloaded previously

DX-files // rendering

When the Graphic Driver is blamed, we usually ask people to check up on their Direct-X files. Option one is that it could be the Direct-X files. Option two is that it could be a part of the Windows system files, as Direct-X is a part of that. To be one the safe side, update your Direct-X files.
