MSI GT70 random BSOD

[Nortbert]

I'm experience weird BSOD, the rate is pretty random, but most of the time it happens when im playing games. I've ran the test suggested by your forums. I've also updated both graphics card drivers, and ran windows update couple time. Is there anything else that could help in case of another BSOD, I have no log of the BSOD but I know the location of the files were C:\Users\Greg\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-XXXXXXXXX.sys and C:\Windows\Minidump\XXXXXXXX.dmp (this is just a template)

BSOD is a 0x00000116, and is still somewhat frequent

Hi Nortbert.

The zip you uploaded does not contain any crash dump.

Follow it: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html
Go to Option Two, Point 2. Download the .reg file and merge it in registry by double clicking it.

Now wait for another BSOD. When it occurred, search the .dmp files manually in the default path: C:\Windows\Minidump or %SystemRoot%\Minidump. See if the crash dump is recorded or not (hopefully it will be recorded).Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

Dont run any disc cleanup program before you upload another zip.

I also have a SFdebugFiles folder if its of any use

All the BSODs are caused by the nvidia display driver 337.88 WHQL.

Uninstall it, and install any version that worked good for you earlier.

When done, Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Let us know the results.
