BSOD while playing a game

[Brian Schoeberle]

After playing any game for 2 hours, the screen and sound freezes and I get a Blue screen. This is the error description that action center gives me: The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000050 (0xfffff8a01b6a6b18, 0x0000000000000001, 0xfffff88004596cb6, 0x0000000000000002). A dump was saved in: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: .
I'm currently scanning my full computer to see if it's a virus, but it's unlikely that a stick of RAM fried because this typically happens periodically and after rebooting my computer is fine.

possibly gpu problems?

you can use this software to have a look at how your components are going (heat voltage fans etc)

http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

you could possible use prime95 and unigine to load up your cpu and gpu and see if anything looks outta place on hw monitor

how long have you had the problem, have you done any driver updates lately


and what sort of componants are in your pc

cpu
mobo
gpu
psu
ram

etcetc

i might not be able to help you but this information will be useful for anyone trying to diagnose the problem for you

My gpu is at a constant 60-70 degrees and my cpu is at a steady 50-52 degrees.
My build is:
Phenom II x4 945
ECS A970-M Deluxe
Nvidia GTX 660 ti
Inland 500 watt PSU
Patriot Black Mamba 2x4 gb DDR3
It may be a windows update, but I'll keep the thread up to date after updating the os.
