I have just recently been having a BSOD error. I've had the computer for around a year and it's been working fine up to this week. I then went about installing a wireless network card and 8GB of RAM and it's all gone down hill from there - or maybe just a coincidence. Here are my basic PC specifications at this moment in time:
MSI P67A-G45 motherboard
Intel i5-2500K processor
Corsair 6GB RAM
nVidia 550ti
When I'm playing games in particular, after a random time, the screen will go black, there's a random looping noise, monitor displays 'No Signal' and the computer then reboots. I decided to get GPU-Z and monitor my graphics card temperatures - had an inkling this might be the problem. Initially, the card was idling at around 40c and shot up to around 68c when playing games. I downloaded MSI Afterburner and have now set my fan speed to 85% - is this safe? The temperatures of the card are now 34c idle and around 58c playing games. Is my graphics card overheating? I've attached the latest dump as I really don't know what I'm looking for, hopefully this will give you guys an idea of what's gone wrong. Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give,
Nathan
