BSOD Problem

[novy]

Hi The BSOD appeared 3 times in last 3 days. Last two weeks i noticed the problem with my graphic, some colored fields (small one) appear constantly on my display. That happens all the time but specially when i watch movie, pics or playing games. Thanks in advance

You have mostly unknown bugchecks which is indicative of hardware. The last two crashes blamed your video card but the others have I/O errors. I think your motherboard is failing. You can run some tests but it is very hard to diagnose a bad motherboard.

You can try updating your BIOS to see if it helps.

I believe this is your motherboard but if it isn't then find the right one form hte BIOSTAR site - BIOSTAR :: G31-M7 TE :: BIOS

If that doesn't fix the problem then I will have you try some tests.

What type of power supply are your using?

Thank you very much for your help. I did what you told me about my BIOS and now it's updated so we'll see how my PC works. I just try to browse some pics and everything looks ok. If problem still exist i will let you now

 

[novy]

Unfortunately, problem is still there I tried with bios update and drivers update, but that's not helping.This is how the problem manifest. You can see colored traces (i marked them with yellow circles):

 

[mgorman87]

Those are called artifacts and are usually signs that your video card is overheating. Use a program such as GPU-Z Video card GPU Information Utility to monitor the temps. Also make sure there is no dust built up on the video card fans and that there is adequate cooling inside the case.

I downloaded GPU-Z and my GPU temp while i'm playing PES2011 is 103 C max. When i'm on "ordinary" tasks my temp is about 77-80 C. I'll get compessed air and clean all co9mponents inside and than we'll see
