Hi!

I have been having some troubles with this computer since day of purchase. The first BSOD I had was posted and resolved here: http://windows7forums.com/blue-screen-death-bsod/74954-bsod-during-battlefield-3-a.html (thankyou Elmer!).

Previously, my computer would BSOD during game activity, such as battlefield 3. Elmer identified the probable cause being Avira, and sure enough when I attempted to delete it the computer BSOD; I managed to delete it in safemode and have had no BSOD's during game sessions ever since.

However, lately I have encountered random BSOD's during Windows update and System start up (Just before the windows logo screen) of the same error code; I have posted the DMP file and CPUz screenshots.

I think it is also worth mentioning that in games I have noticed stuttering no matter what graphical settings I set it to.

I am having difficulty tracking down the Hardware responsible for this BSOD; I have run memtest overnight and it passed without fault. Could the 60gb Force 3 SSD be responsible? Or the RAM?

Thankyou, any help is greatly appreciated

Kind regards,
Steve

Hi Steve.

As a Priority:

Can you enable the XMP setting for your RAM in BIOS? That'll take care of your ram timings being slightly out.

You've also a lot of Creative drivers in there. Which software(s) do they belong to?

You may want to try re-setting the graphics drivers again (with DriverSweeper).
