I recently upgraded my graphics card to a Nvidia GTX 660 and also had to updrade to a coolmax 600w psu. After random shutdowns from playing a game for 5 minutes, to 1 hour, it led me to believe a faulty card/ psu. I exchanged both and installed both brand new components, however the crashing only seems to occur less frequently. The crashes aren't BSOD, the game just freezes and the audio gets stuck playing at a single tone, and I have to manually shut down my computer.
Here are the dump files created when the computer crashed.
The dates are from a month ago when I replaced both the psu and graphics card, all the crashes that occur now make me manually shutdown and do not result in a dmp file being created. A dmp file is created by the game I was playing, however Blue Screen View doesn't seem to be able to read them (nothing shows up when I direct it to the location of the dmp files created by my game).
I am baffled by this ongoing dilemma and any assistance in narrowing down the issue will be greatly appreciated. I can download and run anything to help diagnose the problem, so please just tell me what to do.
