Hi!
For several months I have received random blue screen errors. I find it strange that i have had several different errors. First I thought the problem is driver related, but these errors kept coming even after a complete operating system reinstall. After the OS update, i have tried different methods to fix my PC such as changing the RAM in the slots, updating the BIOS but nothing seems to help. And on important thing: the blue screens only occur when I am playing games, so could it be that the origin of the problem is my video card? These are my hardwares: AMD A8-5600K APU processor with integrated videocard AMD Radeon HD 7560D. Asus F2A85-V PRO motherboard. KINGSTON SH103S3120G SSD harddrive. 2 x 4GB RAM, Kingston KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX. Thanks for all help in advance!
 
It might be many things honestly. Your best bet would be to write down the error codes on the BSOD. It would help narrow things down. For now, clear your CMOS on your motherboard and run a memtest to make sure it isn't the ram. Also check your ram timings settings in the BIOS. Also, check your temps while under heavy load, it might be overheating.

Hi all,

I've got the same problem. My computer has been having lots of problems lately (perma-crash -> couldnt boot anymore -> 6 bips meaning gpu failure -> unplugged/replugged gpu -> bips meaning motherboard failure -> bips meaning ram failure -> normal boot -> crash -> ragely unplug one ram stick at random -> reboot and works fine -> find out that that ram stick is making my pc crash -> can now use my computer almost normally).

So now when I play starcraft 2 or League of Legends, the game crashes while I play, and then, usually after several game-crashes, I get a blue screen and my computer reboots. Then if I play again, I don't have "warning" game-crashes but blue screen right away.

I've been reading on these problems on several forums today and I've found out that all those that told their motherboard and cpu had an i7 920 cpu and intel x58 motherboard (don't know if it's just a coincidence, I'm not really good at that kind of stuff).

I have the minidump files if it can help, I just don't know how to share them though ^^'

Thanks for your help :)
