Details to start off:


Windows 8.1 Pro x64
R9 270 GPU
600w Corsair PSU
Samsung 840 EVO SSD
8gb corsair vengeance RAM
AMD Phenom 975 3.6ghz CPU

-Clean install of windows 8 on the ssd
-I used DDU to wipe all of amd's drivers, then downloaded the newest gpu drivers and installed them


This all started after using Windows update to download all of the new updates. I also installed an ssd (840 evo) a few days ago and had no problems, but it was fine, until the update. Shouldn't be the ssd anyways since I tried my HDD and my pc froze once as well.
I first experienced a freeze during a match of Dota 2, restarted multiple times and the freeze kept occurring only in-game, after certain big events occurred in the game usually. This problem is especially prominent when I'm playing Dota 2, considering it has only happened twice outside of it, once on my HDD and once on my SSD a few seconds after booting up. Today I got my first BSOD in a long time, on my SSD, while installing more windows updates..

Event viewer's Windows logs contains many errors, which I'm not sure are normal or not. Picture: http://puu.sh/cFqXT/4771a040dd.png

However, some very common errors seem to be as following:
The AODDriver4.3 service failed to start due to the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified.
((I deleted the AODDriver4.3 and 4.2.0 folder in regedit and this error went away))

The Service KMSELDI service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).

I'd also like to point out that I did check the box in windows update for the AMD driver after I already had installed the AMD driver from the actual website, which could be a reason.. but it doesn't explain the freeze occurring on my HDD as well.



(I'm not sure posting the memory.dmp debug log will help, but I didn't see it in the rar file so I put it here anyways)

Sorry for the delay in responding. Do you still need help with this topic?
If so, respond and I'll be notified by email.

AMD OverDrive (AODDriver2.sys) is either a stand-alone application, or a component of the AMD VISION Engine Control Center. This driver is known to cause BSOD's on some Windows systems.
NOTE: these symptoms were from the previous release of OverDrive. The new release uses the same driver name, but is dated from 4 November 2013.
Please un-install all AMD/ATI video stuff from Control Panel...Programs...Un-install a program
Then, download (but DO NOT install) a fresh copy of the ATI drivers from Global Provider of Innovative Graphics, Processors and Media Solutions | AMD (in the upper right corner of the page)
Use this procedure to install the DRIVER ONLY: ATI video cards - DRIVER ONLY installation procedure - Sysnative Forums

If the device (AODDriver or AODDriver4.01) remains a problem, open Device Manager, select the "View" item.
Then select "Show hidden devices" and scroll down to the Non-Plug and Play Drivers section.
Locate the AODDriver entry, right click on it and select "Un-install". Reboot for changes to take affect.
Sometimes the driver remains and continues to cause BSOD's. If this is the case for you, post back and we'll give further instructions for safely removing it.

If overclocking, please stop. Remove the overclock and return the system to stock/standard values while we're troubleshooting. Once the system is stable again, feel free to resume the overclocking.



While waiting for a reply, please try these suggestions:
1. Get ALL available Windows Updates. It may take several trips to get them all
2. Get ALL available, Windows 8.1 compatible updates from the manufacturer's website.
3. Start with these free hardware diagnostics: Hardware Diagnostics
4. If all of the hardware tests pass, then run Driver Verifier according to these instructions: Driver Verifier Settings

Sometimes they do that. The original BSOD for XP and later would suggest that you just reboot after the first one and wait and see if there was another. And, funny thing, they often fixed themselves!

Should the problem show up again, I am subscribed to this topic and will get notified (by email) that you have replied.
Good luck!
