Hello, I just built a new computer and getting BSOD only when playing BF3. I have run prime 95 and IntelBurn test for over an hour and temps on the CPU are below 55c. Ran furry and tessilation tests on my video cards and nothing went over 80c. Reinstalled windows and made sure all drivers and...

Hi everyone I am experiencing an infamous BSOD, I don’t recall seen one of those since win 98 so I felt quite surprised at first, fortunately I found that win 7 creates a minidump file which I understand contains some information about the crash conditions, yet I have not been able to read it...

I had 8 GiB of memory in my HP Pavilion dv7-4110em XE287EA#BED working at 1,066 MHz because one of the 2 4-GiB memory modules had a maximum frequency of 1,066 MHz. Today, I replaced that module with a 4-GiB module which can work at 1,333 MHz. So, now my 8 GiB of memory works at 1,333 MHz...

Hi All, Let me just start by saying, ARGGHGHGH; lol. I have had an expensive time with my computer recently but i am now beyond the brink and turning the tide of war to my favour. I have recently kitted my ailing PC out with a new SSD for the OS install. This is working great; i have just...

For those of you who are unfamiliar with origin, it is a program similar to steam. Downloads games and lets network. I only run it to play BF3 but when ever I close it, I get the BSoD: http://i.imgur.com/2dlja.png My system specs: OS: Windows 7 Ultimate Edition Processor (AMD Phenom™ II X4...

Hello everyone. I am having issues with my computer freezing. It's not frequent but it and it happens pretty much whenever it wants. I can be rendering a video in Premiere Pro CS5.5 or just downloading something with the system completely idle. I check the Windows Event Logs after every time I...

Hello, I get bluescreen many times when I shut down my computer and I thought that somebody can help me.... It's mot a rue but sometimes I get the bluescreen... Firstly I thought that it was because of overheating of some of my pc components because this error seems to appear when I use the...

So I've finally snapped. For over a year now I've been enduring this god forsaken problem, dismissing and ignoring it as much as I could whenever it reared its ugly head. I can take it NO MORE. My patience has run out! Now, as much as I like to think I'm good with computers, there's quite a...

I have an acquaintance (honest, not me!) who has had a few overheating problems. To this end I suggested evicting the dust bunnies from his case and pointing a fan in. If this cooled it down significantly then I suggested, if he had space, add a Arctic Cooling TC fan or two (love these!!). He...
