I've had this recurring problem for about the past two years now. It started when I played GTA IV it randomly blue screened for the first time. Slowly but surely it now crashes on nearly every game on my computer.

My system specs are:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5GHz
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT 512MB
Ram: 4GB DDR2 400MHz
OS: WIndows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
Hard Disk Drive: Samsung HD502HJ 500GB

I've tried to fix this so many times. Any help would be appreciated :)

RTCore64.sys                 Mon Mar 11 11:32:06 2013 (513D6C56)
RivaTuner/EVGA Precision/MSI Afterburner (known BSOD issues w/Win7)
Please uninstall the software with Revo Uninstaller Free.

Revo Uninstaller
Download and install Revo Uninstaller free from here: Download Revo Uninstaller Freeware

Opt for "Advanced Mode" and uninstall the software (also delete the leftover registry entries).

Daemon Tools/Alcohol %
Daemon Tools (and Alcohol % software) are known to cause BSOD's on some Win7 systems (mostly due to the sptd.sys driver, although we have seen dtsoftbus01.sys blamed on several occasions). Please uninstall the program, then use the following free tool to ensure that the troublesome sptd.sys driver is removed from your system (pick the 32 or 64 bit system depending on your system's configuration): DuplexSecure - FAQ

As an alternative many people recommend the use of Total Mounter or Magic ISO

Hard Drive/Storage
Post disk summary using CrystalDiskInfo software - CrystalDiskInfo

:info: For how to upload a screenshot or file, read here

Make a Hard Drive test from the mfg website: Hard Drive Diagnostic Procedure

For errors on your Hard drive(s): Disk Check

Update this driver:
Code:
vcsvad.sys                   Sun Nov 16 15:51:18 2008 (491FED16)
Avnex Ltd. Virtual Audio Device - Driver Reference Table - vcsvad.sys

Security App
Crashes indicate AVG being a possible cause. Remove AVG and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials to see if it provides more stability. :info: Uninstallers (removal tools) for common antivirus software

Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes are recommended from a strict BSOD perspective. They do not cause blue screens on the system as other AV products do.

Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows
MalwareBytes Free

   Information

  • :warn: Do not start the free trial of MalwareBytes, unselect that option when prompted.

  • :tip: Update and make full scans with both separately.

Scan your system with the following:

Kaspersky TDSSKiller - TDSSKiller Rootkit Removal Utility Free Download | Kaspersky Lab US

ESET online scanner - Online Virus Scanner Eset

Windows Defender Offline (optional)/in case above two show infection) - Run Windows Defender Offline

Start up
Keep less stuff at the start-up. Only anti-virus, this helps avoid driver conflicts and improves time to log in to windows.

Startup Programs - Change

SFC /scannow

1. Click Start

2. In the search box, type Command Prompt
3. In the list that appears, right-click on cmd.exe and choose Run as administrator
4. In the command window that opens, type
Code:
sfc /scannow
5. Hit enter
System File Checker

Memtest86+
Run Memtest86+ for at least 8-10 passes. It may take up to 20 passes to find problems. Make sure to run it once after the system has been on for a few hours and is warm, and then also run it again when the system has been off for a few hours and is cold.
:info: How to test and diagnose RAM issues with Memtest86+
   Note
Pay close attention to part 3 of the tutorial in order to rule the faulty RAM stick out.

   Tip
Do this test overnight.
