I wasn't quick enough to see exactly what the bluescreen told me, but the minidump is blaming it on atikmdag.sys which may refer to my GPU driver which is up to date alongside the Catalyst Control Center at 14.4.
Potentially important context before I provide the minidump:
-I've owned my pc for just over a month with few detected problems.
-The one time this happened, it was a few hours after switching from a 1280 x 1024 VGA connected monitor to a 1920 x 1080 DVI Dual-link connected monitor.
-The very instant it happened was when I paused a 30-song grooveshark playlist and then unpaused- causing a terrible noise (may have been stuttering) then a crash to the BSOD. I do know grooveshark relies on Flash which is known for crashing the browser. (but not the whole pc)
-I think I may have had Left 4 Dead 2 alt + tabbed to the background as well.
-Yes, I can use google. But there are many troubleshooting options for this fairly popular problem, leading me to want help narrowing them down.
-The most popular option seems to be http://www.computertipsfree.com/fix-43029-atikmdag-sys-blue-screen-bsod-in-windows-7/. However, I don't know which atikmdag.sys driver he is referring to, as I seem to have two different drivers of that name. One of which is the much larger kernel mode driver and then another, smaller atikmdag.sys. If you can determine which one I need to work with, I can go the route of that link.
-I recently overclocked my gpu core clock from 975 MHz to 1050 and the memory clock from 1400 MHz to 1500 MHz after having been led to believe it would be stable without altering voltage or power limit. Using Heaven and HWinfo for hours, even on the new monitor, showed no dangerous changes in the CPU, GPU core, and GPU vrm temperatures. So it shouldn't be a matter of overheating.
Without further ado:
