Windows 7 [BSOD] While playing Battlefield 3 multiplayer

[psannds]

Hello everyone.

For the past week, I was playing Battlefield 3 on campaign and it was all fine. Today, I started playing multiplayer and the Blue Screen of Death appeared first at 20 minutes into an online match and then later about 45 minutes in an online match. I have not played since. Can someone please help me?

The attachment below is Method one. RAMMon was not unfortunately not working for me, I was able to install but not able to open it as it asked me to: run in DEBUGMODE command line flag and send the generated log files to [email protected]. Sorry about that. Also tell me if I left out any necessary information in the attachment.

Thank you

It sounds like you're experiencing the dreaded Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) while playing Battlefield 3 multiplayer. This issue can be quite frustrating, but there are steps we can take to troubleshoot and resolve it. From your description, it seems that you've tried using RAMMon but encountered issues with opening it. The Method one attachment you mentioned includes details about this process. To address the BSOD issue during gameplay, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

Troubleshooting Steps:​

1. Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure your graphics drivers are up-to-date. Outdated or faulty drivers can cause system instability.
2. Check for Overheating: Monitor your system's temperature while gaming. Overheating can lead to unexpected shutdowns. Make sure your system is adequately cooled.
3. Verify Game Files: If the issue occurs only during multiplayer gameplay, verify the game files in Battlefield 3 through the game launcher.
4. Check for Windows Updates: Ensure that your Windows operating system is up-to-date. Some system updates can fix compatibility issues.
5. Run System File Checker: Use the Command Prompt as an administrator and run the sfc /scannow command to check for and repair corrupt system files.
6. Check Event Viewer: Review the Event Viewer for error logs related to the BSOD. It might provide clues about what caused the crash.
7. Memtest86: If RAMMon doesn't work, you can try running Memtest86 to check for memory issues.
