Intermittent BSOD

[elsuirad]

Hello all,

It's been four months since I experiencing this BSOD's and until now, I found this thread regarding BSOD PRoblems.

Six months ago, I bought this SONY VAIO Laptop with Windows 7 Home Basic on it then after 3 months of using, I started having BSOD which I just ignored it becaue I thought it's normal and really don't know what causes or reason I'm having this kind of error then until last night, the 15th BSOD I have and I am sending it here for anyone of you guys figure it out what is my problem on my laptop.

Advance thanks to those who will give the result.

Your .dmp file indicates that your gfx card driver as the culprit responsible for the crash... nvlddmkm.sys ... Go to Nvidias' support page and download the newest driver for your card ... Hope this helps...

Thanks, Tews.

I already went to nVidia website and download the latest software, installed it and nothing happens after the installation.

It just ran the program I downloaded and after that, it ended without any sign.

What seems to be the problem?

Run the installer as administrator, then reboot....

As I figured your video driver is the cause. You need to follow these instructions to remove the current driver completely before you download and install a fresh copy. http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lo...op-0x116-video_tdr_error-troubleshooting.html

Latest update:

I tried to log-in as administrator (since I am also the admin), uninstalled the previous nVidia driver along with the Physix software included, restated the laptop after all nVidia software files has been deleted using Regedit.

Installed the latest nVidia driver update from the NVIDIA Website but I noticed that it only installed the nVidia Audio driver and NOT the Video Driver. I thought that it was the part of the software update but when it restarted automatically, still the same video resolution (low res without the nVidia driver) so I have to change resolution to wide and search again the installer, tried several times but still nothing has change what I'm expecting: nVidia Graphics should installed and It was very dissapointin for me.

Since I cannot install the updated nVidia software, I ran my Driver Magic Manager where I backup all VAIO Drivers after I bought my laptop, restore the video driver which is the original installation and now again back to normal but still expecting the next BSOD.

I may consider this a closed thread and thanks for those who helped me and suggested some resolutions.

I still finding the right way on how to deal this situation.
