BSOD-While playing games.....

[fish90pro]

Hi

a while a go about 2 months ago my computer started playing up. Kept BSOD while playing on games and then after one of them won't restart... Ended up having to reinstall windows. (still have windows.old file).

Was working again fine until today when it started doing it again.... Was playing GTA V (as you do) and it turned off.... Also rather than displaying "a blue screen" it doesn't.... Although when I reload windows it gives me this message:

 

 

Problem signature:
  Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
  OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1
  Locale ID: 2057

Additional information about the problem:
  BCCode: 116
  BCP1: FFFFFA8007791010
  BCP2: FFFFF88008AAB81C
  BCP3: FFFFFFFFC000009A
  BCP4: 0000000000000004
  OS Version: 6_1_7601
  Service Pack: 1_0
  Product: 256_1

 

This occurred again a bit later on and afterwards it won't boot however I noticed that the fans on the graphics card weren't spinning as the power cable wasn't quite in the connecter quite right....

Well that code is a graphics error. Did you update drivers? If you did, I'd reinstall them.

Sounds like you might need to update your GPU drivers

Also maybe turn down your graphics settings.

I would also say pull the GPU clean dust out and install it again make sure the power cables are fully connected.

All I can think of at the moment.

Forgot to mention I have all the latest drivers and updates for about everything....

I updated the NVidia drives today to 352.86

Check temperatures during gaming, both on CPU and (more importantly) GPU.

 

CoreTemp for CPU

GPU-Z for GPU

Didn't think it was that hot as the computer case is metal so I can feel on the case if it gets hot... But I may try it

if you can try and run a stability test on your graphics card it could be bad and if its throwing errors it could be causing your BSOD. Also you said your power connector wasn't in all the way? If you fixed it that should stop the BSOD's if that was the problem if not you may have something else wrong.

Update your BIOS if you haven't done so, this often fixes graphics related BSOD's.

Furmark for graphics stress test?

It gives the worst case scenario, so I guess that's good for temperatures.

 

Touching your metal computer case to feel if it's hot tells you absolutely nothing: the heat might be trapped inside!

Temps are not an issue for GPU. Been playing on GTA V for about 20 minutes. max temps are 63 degrees C. CPU much hotter at max of 70

hasn't blue screened since yesterday so hoping that it was just the power cable...
