PCTech Forums

Hi all,

First post here so be gentle, i'm not overly sure where to put this thread as i can't really sum up what is the real problem and were it should go.

Usually when on games and sometiems (not often) but sometimes just having my PC switched on, up pops a BSOD. I tried uninstalling the graphics driver and reinstalling it, and when it gets to reinstalling another BSOD pops up...now i can't even change any video settings until it crashes to the desktop on Day Of Defeat. The first BSOD I had was this. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance.

What is your system spec? I used to get a similar message when I played games, (until my pc died.) It's to do with the Ram I think. not quite sure what though. try updating your motherboard drivers and stuff.

Welcome Trav,

There are a number of things that can cause that error type.
It could be your ram but I tend to think that your video drivers are out of date or
your motherboard BIOS need updating.
