The last couple of months my computer has been crashing on various, and selective games. It will crash on csgo, euro truck simulator 2 and a gold simulating game that is advertised by amd in its driver installation. It is only these games. I can play things like arma 3 (heavily modded), garry's mod and gta 5 just fine.I tried changing different drivers and memory check. The drivers didn't help and memory tests do not yield results. I've tried validating files and re installing games. I dont think its a wattage problem because I have a 850 watt psu. Please help.

 

My specs are:

Bitfenix NOVA case

Gigabyte 990X gaming motherboard.

AMD 8350 black edition (No over clocking, water cooled with Corsair H60 single fan.)

MSI R9 380 (Factory clock, no tweaking)

Corsair Vengeance 1600 MHZ 4GB DDR 3 x2

 HyperX fury 1600MHZ 8GB DDR3 x1

kingstone 240GB ssd

Seagate barracuda 1T

Tp link pci-e internet card

Aerocool VP pro 850 Watts

 

Thank you.

What does it do when it crashes exactly?

It freezes to a black screen and plays the last second or so of audio over and over again to make a screech like noise. Im currently playing with msi afterburner to under clock my gpu incase its because its overheating.

Same issue I've been having. I started my machine in safe mode, ran DDU to remove all traces of the drivers and the reinstalled them after restarting. If you're using an AMD card, don't install the AMD audio drivers. Mine has been working fine after doing that but it hasn't been 24hours yet so it may start appearing again.

Hello, and thankyou for the advice, unfortunatly I am not getting the blue screen of death. It is freezing to black screen and glichy audio with nothing I can do about it. I'll try this anyway to see if it works, but im sure its a different problem im having.

 

Also im not sure what a minidump is.

 

Thankyou.

Follow the instructions anyway. Minidump files are created anytime windows hangs or crashes, or a driver crashes (such as for a GPU). Minidump files contain the information that lead to a crash or hang. Its possible that you do have these files. If they're present, it can help us troubleshoot.
