So it was all fine before . Its been 5 months no problem , its been few days im seeing random blue screen.MY PC SPECS XFX R9 270x 2gb , amd 8320 black edition , 8gb ram , GIGABYTE 78lmt usb 3 mb , power supply corsair cx600w , Driver version of gpu is amd catalyst 14.4 . So i updated my driver to amd catalyst 14.7 now no problem the blue screen goes away , [But my question is why i was getting blue screen with the old driver amd catalyst 14.4 ?i've used the 14.4 for 5 months no problem. why now ? ] no blue screen with 14.7 , to make sure that there wasn't any setting change in catalyst 14.4 so i did a clean format and reinstalled the driver, still getting blue screen , the 14.7 fixed my blue screen problem . here is the Bsod error
