Haven't had any BSODs in a long time until the last month or so, maybe 1 every other day, always related to atikmdag.sys which I believe is the video driver? What would cause it to suddenly start crapping out on me like this?
Dump files attached for reference. Thanks for any assistance!

SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)
This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003.  This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG.  This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG.  This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffffffc0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: fffff8800f4e283b, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: fffff88005da6228, Exception Record Address
Arg4: fffff88005da5a80, Context Record Address

Crashed Again

So I ran AMD's auto-detect and download program, which I think may have installed a beta driver instead of WHQL? I didn't see options for older versions on their site, am I looking in the wrong place?

Anyways, I got a new crash today, the dump files are attached. Thanks for the help!

You should not use a BETA, get the 14.4 WHQL.
You may get it from here: AMD Catalyst 14.4 WHQL (14.100.0.0 April 17)

Follow this method to install it.
Uninstall your installed latest version of the display driver.

Then clean up any possible leftover.

Then install version 114.4 WHQL only.

Done see how it goes.
Report us for any further BSOD.
