Hello,

I've had a gaming computer that I built myself for almost two years now, and in that time it's worked perfect. Recently found myself in some extra money so I decided to throw some upgrades onto it. I'll list in order what I did, as a timeline to save you time.

*Built Gaming PC
---Works fine for 2+ years.
*Purchase SSD, 16GB more RAM, More powerful power supply unit.
*Install Windows 7 onto SSD, Install RAM, attach new PSU
*Learn that Windows 7 Home Premium caps at 16GB
*Upgrades to Windows 10.
*Running boot from SSD, installing heavy games onto SSD and all else onto HDD.

At this point, I decided to run a game, Smite (Off of the SSD) , to test everything, and I've been getting constant BSoDs with the error, Driver-Overran-Stack-Buffer. This also ended up removing an executable for Smite, and their developers authentication program, nulling my ability to even launch the game. This is met with continuous BSoDs of other nature, and other odd problems that I'd never had.

*Google Chrome will just show that it was unable to load a page, and I have to restart computer to get it to work.
*Certain programs will fail to start randomly, and I'll have to restart my computer.

I ran Driver Verifier, and my computer wouldn't even start, instead immediately BSoDs with Driver Verifier Detected Violation. I know some people encounter issues of this sort in relation to outdated drivers. I'm positive all of mine are up to date. Others encounter this because of issues with GSync settings in the Nvidia control panel. My Nvidia control panel doesn't have GSync settings. Below are all my specs, and some error messages, followed by my plea for help. That being said, the minute I post this I'm going to begun running MemTest off a flash drive, so I may not reply back until tomorrow morning when it either passes or fails.

SPECS -
Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Phanteks PH-TC12DX_RD 68.5 CFM CPU Cooler
ASRock Fatal1ty Z97X Killer ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Intel 730 Series 240GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB Video Card
LG GH24NSB0 DVD/CD Writer
EVGA SuperNOVA 1000G2 1000W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

Two crash files from the Smite Game

I'll continue to attach any information that I find or can pull. I love computers, and gaming is my love and joy. I really hope to find a solution. If it's as simple as replacing one of the drives, so be it, but I just can't figure out the root of the problem. Huge thanks to everyone who can throw me some bones to get started!


UPDATE: Tried running CS:GO, which is on HDD. Ran fine for about 15 minutes. Much longer than what I got with the game on my SSD

Running MemTest right now. Will reply back with results. I really don't believe it would be the SSD though, because it's 3 days new and right out the box. I had made a mistake by installing windows 7 onto the SSD then running both drives, then nuking my old HDD, but how would that effect the SSD. It was disconnected when I nuked the HDD.

If I failed to set the motherboard bios SATA mode to AHCI, could that cause these problems? The Memtests pass. Since that point I've gotten the following BSoD messages.

Driver Overran Stack Buffer
Memory Management
Page Fault in No Paged Area
