Computer randomly crashes

Still crashing very consistently. I ran memtest86 and didn't find any errors. I don't think it's the torrents because after formatting my computer it was still crashing even before I downloaded bittorrent.

One thing I did notice is that when it crashes during web browsing it's usually when I'm watching a video. I'm guessing these crashes are related to my video card but I don't know what I can do besides install the drivers again.

Does it only crash while playing Star Craft II?

Have you tried running it in 32 bit?

Go to Options then Game Settings

Place a mark for 32-bit

You can also try running Scan and Repair then Check for Updates.

Yeah, I'm running in 32 bit mode and I ran the scan and repair option. Still crashing all the time.

My computer mostly crashes while I play SC2 but also when I browse the web and watch videos.

Run CHKDSK using Command Prompt

For how long and how many passes?

May pass the first one and or few then fail. When was the last time you cleared the dust form the system?

Have you gone through and made sure all the power and data cables are secure?

I can`t remember exactly but it took a couple of hours to complete. From what I remember there were 4 or 5 tests done.

I just ran CHKDSK but I`m not sure what to do afterwards

Hi again :)

Can you please provide fresh BSOD logs? I want to make sure we're not running across a hardware fault, which is seems to be.

Please download the Sysnative BSOD Dump + System File Collection App - save to Documents folder.

Run the app - Double-click on the downloaded EXE file
Output = new folder created in Documents + a zipped version -- SysnativeFileCollectionApp folder + SysnativeFileCollectionApp.zip. [/list]

Please note that the app averages ~3 minutes to run on most systems; other systems - it my take as long as 10-15 minutes to run. Please be patient.

Also note: The app auto-zips the SysnativeFileCollectionApp output folder. It is located in your Documents folder.
Windows Explorer should open and highlight the zipped folder

Please attach the SysnativeFileCollectionApp.zip to your post and await further instructions :)

Here is one way that you can pull the log to view it. You can also COPY and PASTE the contents from the TXT file into a post.

1. Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run dialog, type powershell.exe, and press Enter.

2. In PowerShell, copy and paste the command below, and press Enter.

get-winevent -FilterHashTable @{logname="Application"; id="1001"}| ?{$_.providername –match "wininit"} | fl timecreated, message | out-file Desktop\CHKDSKResults.txt

3. CHKDSKResults.txt file will be created on your desktop, that is the log file of your chkdsk scan results from Event Viewer.

Ok, I ran the program and attached the file.

My computer has been crashing less but it's still happening consistently.
