It can be any game from something like Minecraft to Battlefield 3 which causes problems for me. The first conclusion I could make was that there may be a problem with my Video card as playing high end games like BF3 can be very demanding on the average computer. I have updated drivers and tried to fix it to no end. These BSODs seem to happen at least 1-3 times a day. The crash dumps can happen both when starting up the game or while I am playing it. I don't know whether any of this information is useful or whether it is even related to what can be seen by analysing the files from sf-diagnostic. All the files needed should be attached.
my computer is giving me a hard time with all this BSOD.It works fine when im just surfing the net or watching videos, but when Im playing games like Skyrim, ME3 or Witcher 2 it just suddenly hangs and BSODs.The least time for this to happen is 20 mins and the longest time for this to happen is 4 hours. Which in those games cases is a short time.My Windows 7 is
- x64 - the original installed OS on the system? Yes
- an OEM or full retail version? OEM = came pre-installed on system
- What is the age of system (hardware)? Nov 10, 2012
- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) Same as hardware.
i keep getting BSODS,Freeze,Crash when playing games, watching some videos......it happened after someone tried to install a game after he played it for some few mins it started to crash,freeze and bsod. Unfortunately even after we formatted our laptop it still crashes whenever playing games or videos but it rarely happens when watching videos but the real concern is that it crashes sometimes now and then randomly when using a lot of memory or not...
i was playing dark orbit , it's a spaceshooting game (mmo)it requires flash player, every time i play the game the flash player crashes. i even re-installed the flash player. even disabled the hardware acceleration in the flash player settings.> flash player also crashes while watching videos on Internet, playing facebook games like farmville, cityville etc.
HoN or Steam games like mass effect, dead space etc will crash. Everything was working fine until I tried to upgrade my nvidia drivers to play BF3 and since then I can't figure out why it won't work. I can do everything else on my computer fine.Nothing else causes it to crash but playing games. I have ddr2 pc2-6400 patriot 4gb of ram, amd athlon 64 x2 6000+ socket am 2, nvidia geforce gtx 280
I used to get a crash dump opening certain folders, usually was one of my car picture folders, recently it's my downloads with my minecraft etc in it.. I've run check disk but it happens over and over and over, never fails.The bug check is as follows 0x000000F4 (0x00000003,0x87558828,0x875899 4,0x8321CD60)When it runs check disk it deletes thousands of orphan files it tells me, 12kb in bad sectors, deleting corrupt file record segment 37572, deleting index entry for a ton of dll files. Also since this started my computer is convinced it isn't genuine windows when it really is..
i'm trying to create another partition so i can run windows 7 or xp, am following a tutorial on Internet showing how to do this and everything is working great until i click finish on the new simple volume wizard. then the pop-up appears, warning that clicking yes will change the basic volume to some other volume (dynamic i believe) and that i would not be able to start other operating systems from it. i click yes anyway.now disk c is labeled crash dump when it was previously labeled as a primary partition. and the header bar by disk 0 is now green rather than blue (i think it was blue).new volume (f is the new volume i created.i tried system restore but this computer has only been running for an hour and we have not created any restore points yet.
Recently re installed windows 7 from my windows 7 disc.Hard drive was formatted.Worked fine for about 4 weeks then it crash dumped.When i re start the laptop it goes to windows error page and goes to system repair or start windows normally. Either of these starts windows then goes blank and re starts.When i go into the bios and boot from a disc it starts windows but then the windows screen shows but it has no start up and just freezes. I have tried to re install windows again and it get to the language settings page and the goes starting windows and it does not do anymore just stays on the strating windows page.
I've had three BSOD's in three days now all while playing either Skyrim and Dead Island. I have the three individual crash dumps attached.The video card I am using is new to the system and has had its drivers updated to Nvidia's latest (not those from the manufacturer's homepage).My guess is that I'm either having some kind of conflict with drivers here or that my PSU is inadequate but without being able to decipher the information in the dumps I can't tell. BSOD's are not my specialty at all but I don't want to simply ignore this.
I tried searching first but I seem to have trouble finding the proper terms to narrow the search enough... So I just post this.I put together a HTPC for 24/7 usage (windows media center and iMON remote control, spotify, PowerDVD for Blu-Ray movies). Minimal amount of additional software installed. The problem is it locks up often. The whole Windows 7 goes fully unresponsive (all you can do is power off -> on). It rarely stays responsive for 48 hours. No crash dump is generated. The event log shows nothing special, mainly two error items, one related with errors on Microsoft Security Essentials and the other is Circular Kernel Context Logger session failing to start.The main question is: what is there to do, is there a program that could monitor which other program seems to halt the system? I'd hate to go through eliminating each and every software/hardware component... The second question is: just in case, does anything below ring any bells what might cause the problem?
My wife's laptop has developed a bad habit of randomly locking up to the point you have to hold the power button to shut the laptop off. I'm just wondering if it's possible to get Windows to write a crash dump off events like that, or is that at the point where it's just not going to happen even with the correct options selected?
The laptop is a HP G62 Notebook PC running Windows 7. More exact information can be provided if needed.
i have recently had a crash dump file appear in c:windowsminidump.i am uploading it here, for those who my wish to review it.however, i cannot specify what the cause of thes problem my have been.
my 2 year-old toshiba satellite l675d-s7016 has been making a loud screeching noise for the past week. it only happens when i'm watching videos (hulu, Internet, etc.) it slows the video down, distorts it, and then my computer has blue screen and shuts down. i think that it started when i downloaded a screen-sharing program called join me. i never used the program, but i can't even find it in my "programs." i'm using windows 7?
I have a brand new Windows 7 64bit build with a clean install from an Upgrade CD and noticed in BIOS that my 1st boot device must be "Windows Boot Manager" or it asks for the CD. I only have 1 storage device (SSD) in the system and when I look under Disk Management in windows, it shows a 100MB "EFI System Partition" in addition to the primary partition (which is labeled "Boot, Crash Dump, and Primary Partition" - so it seems to have the boot files on it).
As I only have the one non-optical storage device I did not set any partition parameters at install. I Attempted to do a Startup Repair with the windows disc to maybe try and delete the EFI partition and got the "... System Recovery Options is incompatible with the version you are trying to repair" error. Not sure what that is. If Disk Management shows a healthy partition with "Boot" listed as being contained, why can I not select the SSD as boot device #1? I can boot perfectly fine with the Windows Boot Manager listed as boot device #1 and the SSD as #2, however it's not ideal.
on each startup/restart/reboot I get a pair of these errors, about 15 seconds apart. System is a P4 desktop, 4GB ram, conventional hdd, windows 7 ulti x64.

I get a computer crash while im playing skyrim. Its currently the only task I'v been experiencing this crash. The computer freezes, in the last frame of the game. I get a nasty sound in my headset, like a eletric interface kinda sound. The keyboard and mouse gets disabled (no lights or response)
I have a whole new computer, with new parts. running windows 7 professional 64bit

I bought GTA complete pack from steam from steam the other day and patiently waited for the 40gb of files to download and they all ran fine but when I play GTA IV it runs fine until I shoot someone or crash in a car.When I shoot or crash then the screen goes black, the sound loops and the only way I can do anything is if I use task manager to shut down my pc (and even then it gets to "shutting down ..." and stays there until I hold down the power button). When I turn it back on everything is fine but I don't know why it's doing it.
I've been having issues with two of my games, Hearts of Iron II and Civilization V.earts of Iron will play for a couple 'days' or a couple months before crashing. While Civ V could play for a while or crash instantly depending on what I select. I checked the Event logs for these crashes to get these[CODE]Now I've run some tests on my memory and it seems everything is physically.I ran some registry fixes that claimed to fix things, but didn't resolve anything. I uninstalled and re-installed the video driver.I've tried uninstalling and then re installing the games themselves. It should probably be noted I just recently installed a harddrive and this problem has only been since then. My current suspicion is that something is messing with my CPU usage and these two strategy games are burning through the memory for some reason
GFWL was working fine until yesterday. I went to start Batman: Arkham City and it crashed after the splash screen. I noticed that GFWL and the marketplace also would not start (splash screen, then nothing).
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling GFWL and the Marketplace, as well as the .Net framework (multiple times). I can NOT get these to work! And I have no idea what could possibly have caused this, since I didn't update any software between the time I played the game last and yesterday morning (maybe a 24 hour span).
Are there any other common fixes? These literally leave no errors and just close when trying to start, making the games that use GFWL crash on start up (just get the generic "blah has stopped working" error).
I've tried the steam user forums, XBOX forums (under the PC sections) and e-mailing microsoft, but no answers yet.
My last resort would be to find a custom installer for the game with a crack so I could possibly completely bypass GFWL.
All my old games used to run correctly(Hitman 2&3, Max Payne, Quake 2 etc). I installed AOE 3 but had to uninstall because my display is not supported. Now all my games that used to work don't run but make my system lag really bad! in the task manager the game runs as a process with a "rundll.exe" that uses 100% CPU until I close the process tree
