Solved Ugh. So many BSOD's.

what are your system specs?

If you can fill out your specs sheet, it will help us find similar issues with other members..

Your minidumps say your problem is a 'custom error' which usually means software or driver issue

Uninstall your vid drivers and let windows install its minimal drivers and see how it holds up..

You've got dumps here that are pointing to hardware issues with the CPU, which aren't good to see (complaining that the L1 cache on one or more of your CPUs may be bad):

You mentioned that you uninstalled all the ATI software, but.... doesn't look like it was successful:

I'd suggest running something like Prime95 or similar to test the CPU itself, and potentially try a removal of the ATI driver set as well to make sure they're gone. Given video playback will stress both a GPU and a CPU, this isn't wholly surprising.

The error would indicate either not enough voltage to the CPU, or it encountered math errors during testing (meaning insufficient cooling or an actual faulty part). Might want to check temperatures on your CPU during testing before that situation occurs to see if cooling is an issue - if you're using the stock HSF for the CPU that came with it, that's usually not the greatest idea with an AMD part in my experience for what it's worth. It could technically be faulty RAM (easy to test the RAM with memtest86) too, and that's always good to test when hardware is suspected in any issue.

Not sure, but I'd guess that AI suite would have a way to reset it's changes. Might want to reinstall and check.
