So I've been having these BSOD issues for a little while now and I have tried a lot of things to try and isolate and fix this issue. It seems to happen most often with Shogun 2 although I have had it happen outside of the game when I have too much going on at once but very rarely.
I recently installed windows 7 64bit on this comp and was running windows 8 32bit beforehand with no BSODs. On windows 8 the game was freezing but the pc wasn't crashing. I read that it may have been due to the fact it was a 32bit system and so far I haven't had any issues with freezing....but now the BSODs are plaguing me.
Things I have done after reading around:
Updated my drivers
Installed SP 1
Run memtest
Memtest revealed some errors on my RAM and with a lot of swapping around I found that slot 2 and 3 on my mobo appear to give errors so I have removed the RAM from those slots and am running with 8gb now in slot 1 and 4. I got an all clear with memtest yesterday (I think I got to pass 10 overnight so I was pretty sure) and thought it was finally sorted until today during a particularly graphic intensive battle the BSOD returned.
I don't really know what to do now.
