since installing my new 6950, ive been getting a fair few more errors than i should be. Since then ive replaced the PSU and today i have a few case fans and a new cpu cooler coming, in the hope some of the bsods im getting are cause by heat. Half the problems went after installing the new psu but im still left with random BSODs. How can i look at the BSOD logs? id quite like to not have to RMA my graphics card if it is the cause of the problems :)
 
You should be able to view these logs in Event Viewer.

Go to Control Panel, Administrative tools and then Event Viewer.

Alternately, got to Start, then to Run, and type in "eventvwr.msc" (without quotation marks)
 
Control Panel - Administarative tools - Event Viewer.
Double click Windows logs, then application.

Find the date and time of the crash and locate the causing mosule or program and the error code. Then google.
 
This is the error i got during the BS according to the event viewer
:

Some processor performance power management features have been disabled due to a known firmware problem. Check with the computer manufacturer for updated firmware.

I've just updated the bios firmware from 1.6 to 1.7 and all settings are at default, is there something specific causing this that i could change in teh bios ?
