Random BSOD

[dfchris]

I get random BSOD.

It occurs when the computer isn't under any particular stress, i.e. just browsing.
Yet I can be playing demanding games and it not happen

The dump files says;

[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]Crash dump directory: C:\Windows\Minidump[/FONT]

[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]Crash dumps are enabled on your computer.

Also enclosed a zip file with details

Bug check description: This indicates that Microsoft Windows or a kernel-mode driver accessed paged memory at DISPATCH_LEVEL or above.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error.

First, we want to make sure the computer is saving your dump files. Go to Control Panel -> System -> Advanced System Settings -> Startup and Recovery [Settings] Make sure that "Write Debugging Information" is set to Small Memory Dump (256kb) if it is not already.

• Create a Dump File when you get a BSOD

Next, make sure that the folder C:\Windows\Minidump exists. If not, create it (allow permission if asked). Make sure any dumps you want to analyze, whether yours or others', are in this folder. You can ZIP/RAR the files and send them to someone else to analyze as well.
