mostly use the pc for downloading n watching 1080p and 720p movies.occasional gaming i.e only fifa 12. sometimes it would bsod with ati2vdag in infinite loop or it would just restart.i have searched the internet for possible solution but nothing yet...please help

was using 11.11 drivers when the bsod first appeared.uninstalled those and installed the disk drivers but the same bsod again...i think its not the drivers
the max temps is 73c i think its ok.

step 1 - remove gpu
step 2- plug in your moniter to onboard igp
step 3- boot windows uninstall gpu drivers.use driversweeper to clean leftovers.
step 4-flash bios to lastest (yes even if you are already using the latest ,do it again)
step 5- reboot
step 6-shutdown reseat gpu
