So ... what do u guys think , is it harware related or no? If it is a hardware problem i'll try to return it.
 
According to MS this bug check is usually caused by a video driver behaving improperly. Try updating your drivers.
 
Let me draw your attention to this :

"
*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for SASKUTIL.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for SASKUTIL.sys

SASKUTIL? WTF?

After some research i've some doubts...
I'm using SUPERAntiSpyware now , and that file "saskutil.sys" is in the same folder of the detection tool.

What could cause interaction between SASKUTIL.SYS and video driver?


Thaks 4 your time :)
 
Do your BSODs only occur with Psychonauts? It could very well be that this game conflicts with your system and it is being expressed via your video.

I have seen this happen may times. If it only occurs with psychonauts then I would say it is the game drivers causing the conflicts.

As for SASKUTIL.sys (a SUPERAntispyware driver; I use it myself) it appears it is blocked from loading when this conflict occurs. At this point i would say it is the symptom of the issue and not the issue itself. Or SAS and Psychonauts may conflict.

Then again, all that may be needed is updated graphics drivers.
 
Yes only there but ... after this i went mad and deinstalled it fast as possible.

So , In Conclusion ...

no hardware issue 4 sure right? :)

I don't know, we'll see. Notice in your minidump how the process Psychonauts.exe is in the mix.

If you have stability from here on out then it was this game causing the conflict that might have been resolved with updated graphic drivers. But if your graphics drivers have been working well otherwise then leave as is and bury Psychonauts. :D

However, it there are updates from Dell in the future you may want to give it a shot.

Get back to us and let us know if you have continue to have stability.
