Hello friends, I am in dire need of your assistance, my computer seems to be blue screening very often when I open games such as guild wars, wow, and a few other games and not with others. A little strange I know. My computer has never blue screened until about a week or two ago and it seems to be happening a lot more frequent. Here's my crash dump
On Wed 7/30/2014 4:25:43 AM GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\073014-40232-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: nvlddmkm.sys (nvlddmkm+0x98BD1C)
Bugcheck code: 0x116 (0xFFFFFA8014789010, 0xFFFFF88010488D1C, 0xFFFFFFFFC000009A, 0x4)
Error: VIDEO_TDR_ERROR
file path: C:\Windows\system32\drivers\nvlddmkm.sys
product: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 337.88
company: NVIDIA Corporation
description: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 337.88
Bug check description: This indicates that an attempt to reset the display driver and recover from a timeout failed.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: nvlddmkm.sys (NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 337.88 , NVIDIA Corporation).
Google query: NVIDIA Corporation VIDEO_TDR_ERROR
Windows suggested that I disable shadowing and caching in my BIOS? I later learned you can't do that?
I bought this laptop about two and half maybe three years now from xoticpc, and I fear that I might need to replace it, I really don't want to.
So questions
1. How can I stop this blue screening, it's nearly every time I play a game
2. I was reading you should delete your previous nvidia drivers before updating it? How can I do that? Because I've updated my drivers multiple times and have never uninstalled a previous one.
Please help me my fellow friends, I just want to go back to enjoying my PC gaming, I appreciate and thank any help I can get.
