Hey,
i just was playing Blacklight and my pc has crashed with red screen, unfortunately i cant see from where the problem is causing because i have win8, and win8 dont have blue screen, also i dont have minidump collected. this isnt the first time that my pc crashes with red screen while playing.

Maybe its the problem with the GPU ?
Should i go back to win7 and see from where the problem is ?

my specs:
i7 3770+16gb ram
Gigabyte HD7970ghz edition
seasonic M12II-750w

 
Solution
If you only have the issue under Windows 8 and not 7, then yes, re-install 7 and see if it works. Don't know why anyone would pick Win 8 over 7 anyway unless you have a touchscreen and like plying with blocks like on a phone.

Would putting the game into compatability mode under Windows 7 settings help the problem? Also having this issue.
