Memory upgraded, BSOD while streaming video, system regularly crashing
Hi,
I have been having some issues with my laptop (Dell XPS L502x) crashing intermittently lately. Sometimes it crashes when I turn it on from sleep mode. Other times, it can work fine for a period and then crashes randomly. I have tried to update all drivers as recommended on the Dell driver update page but then today, as I was streaming video content with my laptop connected to my TV via HDMI, I got the BSOD.
As per the posting instructions, I downloaded the dm log collector. But that had problems and closed and automatically removed the dump/log files. I ran it again and managed to make a copy of the folder (SFdebugFiles) before it was automatically deleted again by the program. I have attached a .rar of that folder below.
In addition, I have included a CPU-Z report of my system spec, if that helps.
Thanks for your help
