Hello you wonderful people! (yes.. I am new here)
Recently, my computer crashed without a warning when i tried to wake it up from sleep mode. As there was no error messages of any kind, i was forced to do a cold boot. (The screen was just black)
After the cold boot, Windows 8 was so kind to me to not being able to boot anymore. I threw my Windows 8 disc in, and tried the optimize feature in order to keep my files at least. That worked (more or less). But as the system was VERY buggy after this (features not working, programs "Not Working" errors and BSOD's with the error message i posted in the title every time i booted the system, and every time i tried to wake the system up from sleep mode, different hardware parts like the soundcard not detected correctly by the system etc.), i decided to do a complete re-install of Windows 8. That solved most of those issues. Now all my software works, and all hardware parts are detected as they should (meaning the drivers can find the hardware and work as it is supposed to). However, i still get a BSOD with the same error message when i turn the machine on. Same thing when i try to wake the system from sleep mode.
I have been trying to look around the wonderful interwebs, and i did find people with somewhat the same issue. I tried to do some of the things they have bin suggested, but without luck.
Here's the things i have tried:
My specs:
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77-D3H
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 3GB
RAM: 16GB Kingston HyperX
OS: Windows 8 Pro x64
I do know my share about PC's, though, i am not too familiar with the core system of Windows. (I am more of an Android OS guy)
I fear it have something to do with the GPU as i can see it is the problem with most other people with this error.
I have attached a full collection of your SF Diagnostic Tool in the hope that can help you in helping me.
If i am missing anything, just ask. I will see if i can provide as much information as possible.
And please note, i have been running Windows 8 in quite some time without any issues what so ever until the first time it crashed when i waked it up. From there, it have been playing with my temper.
Thanks a ton for your support!
Sincerely, Vej.
Note - I think i should add, that once the system is booted up, it run's like a charm. I can load both CPU and GPU with graphics intensive games without any issues. It is ONLY on boot and wake-up.

Here's the things i have tried:
- Complete re-install of Windows 8
- Complete uninstallation of AMD drivers (followed a guide to delete EVERYTHING related to AMD/ATI)
- Installation of old GPU drivers (the version i had when it worked)
- Installation of the newest drivers and Windows Updates
- Installation of the latest drivers for chipset, soundcard and network card. Drivers was found on Gigabyte's website.
