Hello,

I have been randomly receiving BSODs for quite some time however it appears to be occurring with more frequency now. There hasn't been a specific program running that appears to be linked to the BSOD. One thing to note is that it has never BSOD while doing basic tasks like Internet browsing and watching Netflix only does it when playing PC games with/without Skype in the background.

I don't think its the RAM causing it because I replaced it with RAM I knew was good from another computer that doesn't get BSODs

Here the following errors I have been getting recently from BlueScreenView:
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION ntoskrnl.exe 0x0000003b
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA dxgmms1.sys 0x00000050
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED dxgmms1.sys 0x0000007e

My PC Specs:

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
CPU: AMD A10-5800K 3.8GHz Quad-Core
MB: ASRock FM2A55M-DGS Micro ATX FM2
RAM: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB
HDD: Seagate Momentus XT 500GB
PSU: CoolMax 500W 80 PLUS Certified ATX12 / EPS12V

Also a link to my BSOD dump files: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=5B21E2C77E9858C!133&authkey=!ABR80UAOKJbR71c

Thank you!

I appreciate any solutions that may work.

I would check the HDD for issues and then move to the GPU b/c the 0x0000007E stop code is mostly associated with failure in the GPU under heavy load. Try using a program to stress test your gpu if nothing happens after you try a few programs try using this to check for errors in your harddrive http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/.
