Random BSOD

[Skurge]

I have been using the PC in my sig for bout 4 days now. im using Win7 x64
I get random BSOD with different msgs each time. atidmag, irql not less or equal, system etc.
When i say random. It happens wen im gaming or just surfing the net or working on the desktop.

my cpu temp is 35c idle and 50c load
I tried reinstalling the drivers, usning old ones. Cat 9.9,9.8,9.7

I have Colin Mcrae Dirt installed and a friend told me that its the STARFORCE DRM causing it.
I need advice before i try anything.

download the memory dump utility from microsoft and load the memory.dmp file. the .dmp file is in the windows directory.

Link with good instructions.

Well...

Over the years - based on personal experience - every time I've gotten RANDOM errors with DIFFERENT messages, it has turned out to be a hardware problem.

That's where I would start looking - bad mem, leaky caps, flaky connectors - that kind of thing... 😉
