I bought this new notebook some months ago, and every since i try to play dota2 it gets a BSOD,
it doesn't give me the error code, but says "machine check exception", and i could not find the reason to this yet.. :cry::cry:

Hi ResOpNit,

Welcome to the 8forums.

Please check {windows partition}\windows\minidump and check if there are any dump files saved.
The zip is empty of dump files.
Please make sure your pc is configured for small dump files How to configure minidump | Windows 7 tutorial
 
Hello Axe0,


Now i understand, those dumps appear after a BDOD, the folder was empty because i restored my pc to its default configuration... but the BSOD have already happend twice, so I attached the archives here...

During the Prime95, what would be a overheating ? i mean, the cores are at 26 + -, but white the test they were at 69 + -, and the Temp1 went from 48 to 91 ... everything in C.. should i keep the test?
 
Overheating would be 85C+ and is a cooling issue.
 
so while using the SpeedFan it appears:
Temp1
Temp2
Temp3

2 and 3 reamaing low, but the first keeps at 50, and during the test went to 90... is this normal ?

Outside of Prime95, does the CPU reach that temperature when under load?
If so, then you are facing a cooling issue.

I guess your laptop is for gaming?
 
Yes, it is for gaming... i just think it is strange because while playing "The witcher 3" nothing happend, but while playing "Dota 2" I had the BSOD, and dota is supposed to consume less from my pc...

Without playing /Playing Dota2 for a while, but i tryied to use a lot of my video card, spamming skills.
GPU: 0 ------71
HD0: 36 -----40
HD1: 45 -----53
Temp1: 52 --78
Temp2: 28 --28
Temp3: 30 --30
Core0: 29 ---53
Core1: 28 ---52
Core2: 28 ---53
Core3: 30 ---53
 
Those temps look fine.

Have you tried reinstalling Dota?
 
Please make sure fast boot is disabled and in the BIOS secure boot is disabled.
