GFX - xfire radeon 5770HD (one xfx one saphire both at stock -850 x 1200)
RAM - 2x2 gigs of patriot g 1600 (stock clock)
PSU - thermaltake 750w
HDD - 2 t and 2 500 g

i have all stock voltages and everything , drivers are up to date ...
i just cant find out why its only this game giving me a BSOD , i dont play it often but if there is an error in my rig id like to fix it and have it run the way its supposed to ya know?

if you need anymore info just ask

and thank you in advance for any tips,help,advice givin

I can solve that. You have to disable one of your cards in Catalyst. Trust me when I tell you that there is no "fix" for the BSOD on Black Ops. I have spent hours trying to figure it out and the only thing that fixes it is to disbale one of the cards. Which for me is fine, as one card runs the game just fine. Try it and see what happens.

i just did a fresh format the other week cause i got a new SSD and the problem was happening before that, and i just re installed the game (on steam) before i posted this thinking is was that problem, and for using drive sweeper i dont think i need to use it since i just installed win7 ulti x64 but i will try it and see if that works

Oh, one more thing, if you roll back your drivers to 11.6 it should work. I however did not want to do that as I play many games that need updated drivers such as BF3. SO either roll back to 11.6 or disable one of the cards.

gotta love HD Radeon drivers... :p

Black Ops is the only game I have ever had a problem with and I have played many many games over the past few years. The game is coded poorly, it is a known fact. I would not be surprised if it is a problem on its end, ultimately.
