Good evening guys!

Hey I'm stumped with whats going on with my gaming computer. Its almost 2 years old so its still new!! Recently my computer started with warnings stating its over 71% centrifuges. After a bit it had a few times where the blue screen of death would come up and restart the computer. I tried searching on what it could be but nothing is coming up. What I've done so far to troubleshoot this and fix it is the following. I redid my registry files, defrag of course after doing this and reset the files. I noticed my BIOS was out date, updated to the newest, my graphics chip was in need of an update so I did that. I ran for Malware and nothing was found. I did a virus search and nothing was found. My computer was actually quite dusty so I cleaned it out and its very clean. I checked if there were any registry errors and nothing. The only thing I have left to try but I doubt its going to work is to reseat the memory. Can anyone let me know what else I could try or what else could be the problem? Its like the computer is running alot harder lately, I usually only play one game right now too and I thought about redownloading it but I doubt that will do anything as well.

So this inst necessarily the BSOD error dump. That error usually just occurs when say you randomly lose power or you do a hard reset. I cant search your computer for the log so I recommend simplifying...

You will have to dig around in event viewer for the exact error code. If you want to use a third party tool like bluscreen view it would even automatically search google for relevent information. In specific scenarios it would even directly tell you what driver was related to the crash.

Okay, Im unable to find it. I remember going to my search bar and locating it that way. It wont let me open them though through the folder. How can I locate them through the search bar in windows 7 so I can run it as a administrator?

Sorry I'm learning here but I believe this is what I found. Does this help at all?

Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.

Your computer was not assigned an address from the network (by the DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address 0xFE85DE6CA0D6. The following error occurred: 0x79. Your computer will continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network address (DHCP) server.

Sorry ignore the last one, here it is.

The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

So this inst necessarily the BSOD error dump. That error usually just occurs when say you randomly lose power or you do a hard reset. I cant search your computer for the log so I recommend simplifying the process by installing BlueScreenView. I am not certain it will gather old BSOD dumps when it is installed but if the problem persists and it happens again it will log it and it is far more user friendly for actually digging into what the code means. If the problem doesn't persist it could have just been a fluke like sometimes software/drivers try to use the same memory resources as another software/driver and it will crash.

Also I wouldn't recommend altering the registry unless you have a specific goal in mind. Even then you should make a backup of the registry in whatever tool you are using before making any changes. Computers aren't as slow as they once were and deleting entries isn't likely to solve anything unless you have a specific issue that demands attention. I can tell you if you just scan the whole registry and delete the whole lot of entries you are likely to cause more problems than you solve. The tools are never perfect at detecting and separating an actual issues with something that is relevant for something on your computer to function properly.

Lastly found location should be found in C:\Windows\Minidump\

Edit: Left out the most important bit since it said centigrade above x it is most likely something getting too hot so check your temps and look for max temps for core components like CPU graphics cards ect. Most likely a driver stopped functioning after the hardware met its temperature threshold. Still look at the dump file though it is likely to tell you which driver failed telling you which part failed.

Thank you so much for taking the time to help me out. I wanted to do a follow up on what I have done so far. I looked more into the temperature issue and noticed the graphics card and also the processor was quite hot when opening my computer again. I also noticed (I didnt initially put this together) the graphics card is right over the processor which I'm sure isn't exactly the best thing since one or both are over heating. I have moved the graphics card away from the processor and reseated everything since I did not try that yet. I also downloaded what you advised me to download and its actually showing me the last 4 crashes. The newest one shows the following, Says caused by drive, atikmdag.sys and caused by address atikmdag.sys+277ce, procssor x64 and crash Address ntoskrnl.exe+75bc0. Researching now to see what I can find but nothing promising thus far. All I'm really finding are things related to constant crashing, mine isnt crashing all the time but that part just started but my computer is overheating and I have never overclocked my computer either.
