Hi,
My pc is pretty much unusable at the minute, because I keep getting BSODs, with error codes like system_service_exception and system_thread_exception_not_handled. It started happening last week after installing Arma II and playing it for a bit. I went off it and played Sleeping Dogs for about ten minutes, before getting my first BSOD. I contacted Microsoft about this and they were very helpful. They got me to download a 64-bit iso as a recovery disk, but even after using that I would get the random restarts. They advised me to do a system restore, which didn't help. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and formatted the boot drive on another pc. I did a fresh install, and STILL I got the BSODs. I then tried a system reset, which basically resets all settings and deletes all files. That was a few days ago and up until now I thought that had fixed. I got a call from Microsoft earlier asking if everything was fixed and I said yes. Straight after this I booted up Skyrim, and guess what, I got a BSOD. I'm really beginning to lose my parience here because a genuinely don't know what is wrong, because I cleared the SSD it can't be malware or a virus (correct me if i'm wrong). I'm beginning to think the SSD is dying or it's a different hardware problem. All drivers were up to date and latest Windows updates were installed. I even tried installing Linux, to no avail as I kept getting a 'panic occurred' error during install. I know this is a bit long-winded but please help!
System specs:
Amd a10-5800k@4.2ghz
Asrock fm2a55-dgs
Kingston hyperx 1866mhz
Ocz octane ssd
XFX 650w psu
Windows 8 pro 64 bit
