Yeah from looking at the web page you can select which integrated video card you have and your is nvidia so I'm sure this would be the conflicting issue those intels have to be outathere. Then the driveragent will let us know what else you need..

I don't care about the disconnected ones as I don't need them for now.

I'm going to restart now and let you know what goes on!
thank you

 

[seth500]

no worries your welcome.

 

[japrestone]

Happened again...
balls.
Here's the minidump this time.

Download and run this hotfix from Microsoft this update improves the stability and reliability of Windows 7 and of Windows Server 2008 R2.
http://download.microsoft.com/downl...AFA4-EA04E666CA11/Windows6.1-KB974431-x64.msu

Every .dmp file points to hl2.exe and direct x are you sure that halflife doesn't have any patches and what not for the game. I'm looking back through the posts and trying to remember what we have done and tried.

 

[japrestone]

Hi man,
That up date isn't applicable, however there were 3 updates available from microsoft which I have downloaded:

Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2570947)

Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2616676)

and a malicious software removal tool.

hl2 gets its updates directly through steam whenever you log on to play.

 

[japrestone]

I don't know what's happening...I just did a search for directx on my computer..found the setup, so I reran it...it allowed me to install it again without saying I already have it. I know I did this yesterday.
I think I'm going to have to go to bed right now. I can't take anymore Half life or counter strike to test it atm. ha ha.
This will end up being the simplest thing that I haven't done or thought I had done.

 

[seth500]

This is the one I always install it the most complete
DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)

Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - DirectX Redist (June 2010)

And if that doesn't take care of it then the video card driver is buggy and you will need to install an older version until they get the one you have install fixed.

Regards

Seth

 

[japrestone]

I just downloaded and installed that. Played halflife deathmatch for a while and it was fine. The problem is usually whenever I exit the game and it exited it fine. If there are any more problems I will give you a shout.
Thank you for your time and kindness Seth. It is much appreciated

 

[seth500]

Hey anytime japrestone I enjoy what I'm doing. So yeah if you have anymore issues let us know and will do the best we can to help you out.

 

[japrestone]

It crashed just now whilst watching a youtube video.
A new one too nwifi.sys... Kmode_exception_not_handled

 

[japrestone]

any ideas?

 

[seth500]

We need to update your wifi driver to the latest driver that is most likely the cause. The thing is though it states there are two drivers for your system a Broadcom and an Atheros I need to know which one it is so we can get the correct one installed. Attached to the post is a system info tool that you will find quite handy in telling us which one it is, so please download it and look at your networks and it should name the manufactuer.

Hey Seth!,

I ended up doing a full restore to as when I purchased it just to see if it is a hardware problem.
I spoke to a samsung rep who gained remote access to my computer...she tinkered with it...it worked for a bit...then it crashed with different BSODS. She recommended that I do a full restore, try the games and if problems persist take it to the samsung centre.

I'm downloading the games from Steam again to try them. I'll keep you updated.
I'm confused and hope it isn't a hardware problem but then at the same time, I would also like to know what it is I did to mess it up in a couple of days...

I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers man,

Japrestone

 

[japrestone]

Hmmmm...
Started off really well...must have played for just under an hour...then whilst I was playing, I started messing with my squeezebox, getting it to connect to my network then blue screen of poop popped up.
Don't know if it's related, but that's what happened.
this was the driver that caused it dxgmms1.sys.

 

[seth500]

Whats a sqeezebox? And network can cause blue screens to occur.

 

[japrestone]

A squeezebox is a wireless music server...it takes all the music from your computer and connects to your amp and speakers and stuff. (technical terms).
Wi-Fi Music Players

It literally happened as I connected it to my network, whilst I was playing.

 

[seth500]

Now dxgmms1.sys is part of directx and is also has to do with audio not just with graphics, i would check with logitec and see if they have updated software for this squeezbox I have a feeling this has been the main issue along I might be wrong but it seems likely:
