Windows 7 BSOD - dmp files attached

[mvem77]

Hi all,

My PC has started to BSOD while playing games and surfing the web. I have attached 2 .dmp files to help with troubleshooting. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Welcome! This is my first time too XD.
Have you tried using the reliability monitor and checking for solutions? If you haven't, all you need to do is go to start menu and type in view reliability history.

This might be a graphical driver problem. Make sure your graphics drivers is fully updated.

Seems to be caused by your graphics driver, as Capella said.

It also seems WinSAT was running, which is unneeded. This could be caused by Overclocking, and you can disable it through the Task Scheduler.

Hey all,

I updated my video card drivers. The same issue occurs. I attached two more .dmp files of the crash after updating the drivers. Thanks for any further help.

Mvem, this seems to be a system driver error, possible RAM error too.

Hit start, and search for cmd. Right click and run as admin, then thype this:

sfc /scannow

This will search and fix any corrupt system files, hopefully fixing the BSoD.
If that fails to find a problem, lets check your RAM: http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lockup-debug-how/53854-check-your-ram.html

Hello,

I did the 'sfc /scannow' function and no errors where found. Memtest also returned no errors. The issue only occurs when I play games (MW2, WoW, etc). Any idea of what else could be wrong and how to resolve the problem?

EDIT: Added latest dump file.

Thanks,

Well, that BSoD was caused by the Desktop Window Manager.

Try disabling it when you run a game.

Hi all,

I figured out what the problem was....the fan on the CPU was loose...wasn't making full contact with the top of the processor. Guess it was getting to hot and causing a bunch of problems? I secured it and haven't had an issue since.

Odd that a heat issue was causing a BSoD. Good to hear it is fixed though.
