If you still encounter the same issue, please email me your dmp file(s) to [email protected] and state that these dmp files are from the 331.58 test driver and also if the behavior changed any (less stable, more stable, no difference). Thank you.
 
The latest drivers that came with shadowplay i think caused a bsod when not doing anything but browsing and listening to music. As generally i dont get bsod and thats the only change recently. So might have to revert to a previous driver or wait for the next update which hopefully wont take long.

50% in MLL :eek:

18% in BF4 will be a nice boost :) Now hopefully they will sort the damned game out (on saying that, not a single crash in the 3 hours ish I played yesterday)

Cheers Cosi for the link.
