BSOD watching twitch.tv livestreams.

[admiralsandy]

Whenever I try to watch someone streaming a game on twitch.tv my computer eventually bsods. Sometimes it only takes a few minutes, and sometimes I can watch for an extended amount of time, but eventually it will bsod.

I have attached the past 3 bsod's. I have had over 10 in the past few weeks (I don't watch twitch that often but I do enjoy it occasionally).

My computer is a Dell XPS17 i7 2760 8gb ram GT 555M

Thanks to anyone who is taking the time to help.

Remove kaspersky from your system for testing purposes.


Download and install Microsoft Security Essentials with windows firewall enable.

Thank you for your quick reply. I uninstalled kaspersky and installed MSE with windows firewall enabled. My motherboard is made by Dell and the model number is 0XN71K. I have a 9 cell battery in my laptop. I am not sure other specs you would like. Just let me know and I will get them for you.

Thank you. I will test the solution by watching a twitch stream. If I don't bsod (or if I do) I will report back.
