Solved BSOD while playing games. Multiple Error codes

[Kharma]

Alright so I just got a BSOD but it didn't create any memory dump. I was able to take a picture of the error (I don't know how much that will tell you) that I have attached to this post.

What would cause the system to not create a dump? Is there any other way that I can pull together logs from that crash so that we can look into it?

The code is many times the Graphics drivers passing bad data. That is really the only thing I can tell you. What were you doing at the time of the crash? Make sure your system is configured for small memory dumps. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html

Follow these steps:

1. Configure Windows to create minidumps:
Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD

2. Set the paging file on C: to be the same size as the physically installed RAM:
Virtual Memory Paging File - Change

3. Set the Windows Error Reporting service to MANUAL:
Services - Start or Disable

- Open Windows Task Manager
- Navigate to the Processes tab
- Right-click on explorer.exe, and click Create Dump File

- Note the location of the saved file

- Check that location and confirm that explorer.dmp exists

You might check C:/TEMP/explorer.DMP and see if you find a dump file there. If you do, copy it, paste it to your desktop, Right click it and select send to > Compressed zip folder and upload the zip folder with your next post. Check that location before you try the above.

I haven't had a BSOD of over a week. At this point I am going to mark this as solved. Thanks for all of your help.
