Solved BSOD since started using 2 monitors. Even under no load at all.

[Domenique01]

Hello,

A month ago I build my own system, everything was working fine until I started using a second monitor this week.
I get random BSOD. Sometimes during gaming, but today even while browsing the sevenforums.
It's getting so annoying now that I decided to disable my second monitor.
I had just enough knowledge to build my own system, but when it gets to crashes, I'm helpless.

I’ve read on the internet that it can be 1 of 2 things.
- my drivers (AMD vision engine control centre say's it's up to date)
- my PSU. (if so I'll just buy another one, but I want to be sure before I do)

I've added the SF diagnostic file as attachment, your help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Welcome Domenique01

All of your systems specs would be very helpful. Also the make & model of each of the 2 monitors and any video cards. Thanks

I'm sorry I’ve updated my specs.
I was under the impression that the SF diagnostic tool would do that for me.

Thanks for the quick reply!

edit:
additional info, I have 2 Samsung LED Monitor S22B350 21.5.
1 is the S22B350H
the other one is also S22B350 but I'm not sure which type exactly, the differ slightly in model.
One is connected to the graphic card via HDMI, the other one via a HDMI to DVI connector.

This are the exact specs of my graphics card: Club3D PCI-e Radeon HD7850 royalKing 2GB HDMI/DP
