Solved BSOD again after a few months...

[CK1985NL]

Hi all.

This time I got a red screen and my pc restart by himself. I was playing more than an half hour Crysis 3. The second time there was no problem, I played a few minutes, but while playing the game it stutters a lot. Maybe you have an idea what it could be the red screen? Good to know is that I have 3 x 4 = 12 GB DDR3 RAM (I think that's enough memory for doing all jobs)

It's graphics card error. (Red Screen of Death)

 

[CK1985NL]

Oké. Should I better waiting till there's a new minidump file? I will continue gaming and watching movies.

 

[CK1985NL]

I played Cysis 3 so about 40-45 minutes and I'm glad to say nothing happened this time. I wait 2 days, if there nothing happens than I mark the problem as solved. Thanks all for you're help!

 

[CK1985NL]

After playing 27 minutes of Crysis 3 I get a red sreen of death again. What do you think it's the problem and how do I fix that?

 

[softwaremaniac]

Yes, there is a problem. Please test your GPU usin FurMark. Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark - Windows 7 Help Forums

 

[CK1985NL]

Oké, I'll do that and I let you know.

By the way, how long must I wait this burn-in test? Does it end from himself?

 

[CK1985NL]

I'm testing it now so about 40 minutes, there are no artifacts and the max. temp. of the gpu reached 80 degrees.

 

[softwaremaniac]

You can stop the test. Please check if you have softOSD installed. If you do, remove it.

 

[CK1985NL]

I stopped the test. SoftOSD? where can I find that? I looked for it but there is nothing named softOSD. What else can I do for this red screen of death? Thanks!

 

[softwaremaniac]

As a program in Control Panel -> Programs and Features. Try using another driver version.

 

[CK1985NL]

I don't understand it well. I can't find it. What must I delete or download another driver version? I looked in control panel - programs and features. I've got a program named SiSoftware Sandralite 2014, 's that what you mean or?

 

[softwaremaniac]

No that's not the program I meant. Please try installing new drivers. You can just installed them over the old ones. Is your SiSoftware Sandra(or any other software) monitoring your system? More particularly your GPU? If, yo, please try removing it or disabling the monitoring part of the software as it is known to cause RSOD.

 

[CK1985NL]

No, I don't have programs installed like that. I'll delete some unnecessary files.

 

[softwaremaniac]

What are your in game temperatures?

 

[CK1985NL]

I don't know. How can I check that?

 

[softwaremaniac]

Using MSI AfterBurner software

 

[CK1985NL]

i think it's normal, I used MSI AfterBurner, it shows max 69 degrees during gaming.

 

[softwaremaniac]

That is normal. Have you tried installing another driver version?

 

[CK1985NL]

I got a new RSOD again. MSI AfterBurner was running and the pc restarted. I will look for new drivers of amd. See this picture below, this is bad, gaming for an half hour and than you get this. View attachment 53533
