Over the last month I have had 7 BSOD, 4 of them are from today, although this problem has been continuous since November 2013. Finally I decided that it was pissing me off too much, so I download a blue screen viewer program and looked at the crash dumps. 5 of the 7 BSOD were caused by something called atikmdag.sys(43 today, 1 on the 22nd and 1 on the 16th) and the other two were caused by ntoskrnl.exe (1 today and 1 on the 19th).

I have no idea what these errors are nor how to fix them, so please can anyone help me, I have googled the errors but the solutions seemed to have been for different graphics cards.


My specs if needed are;

Gigabyte H61M DS2 Motherboard
Radeon R9 270x Graphics card
Intel i5 3570K Processor
8GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM
500GB Seagate HDD
Alpine 700W PSU


Please can anyone shed some light on my situation.

Thanks in advanced!

For the atikmadag.sys i suggest that you reinstall the latest ATI driver and see if the problem still occurs if it does follow this tutorial:

For the other one i would ask you to send a link or something to the dump file so that i can check it out and probably find a solution :)
