Hi. I've bought my computer a 10 months ago, it worked fine for 2 months but after that the BSOD came showing up. First, it showed once every 2 weeks but now it shows up everyday! It appears randomly; whether I am playing, browsing, or listening to music.
I've got the newest driver for my GPU. I've installed a new copy of windows 7. I even formatted my whole HDD!
I've been told that it could be caused because my RAM sticks' frequency isn't compatible with my processor (I've got [4x2Gb DDR3 1333MHz] SAMSUNG memory sticks, and an i7-920 CPU). So I've tweaked my CPU from 133x20X to 167x16X (First number is the Base-Clock and the second is the Clock Ratio). This worked but after a while my PC sometimes failed to boot properly [it made strange sounds when booting]. I've thought about the opposite; why don't I decrease the memory's frequency so I decreased the memory multiplier from 10X to 8X so it became 1066 MHz. That decreased the rate of BSODs but it still occurs.. PLEASE HELP I've spent alot of money on my PC.
*Sorry for my bad English; it's not my native language..
When the BSOD occurs it shows either one of those:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Here are the minidumps..
