hey guys,

ive been playing company of heroes 2 today and that was fine, nice high FPS all smooth etc, i then close the game, browse the web for abit while listening to radio 1 online.

i then close the browser (google chrome) but leave the radio playing (realplayer) and start up BF4, find a server, got connected, game loading up and my PC blue screens.

so i reset the PC and just after the windows loading screen it takes about 5 mins to show anything on the screen, then just appears on my screen all loaded up and ready to go.

here is my spec
FX [email protected]
CHVFZ
2x4GB XMS3 1600mhz
gigabyte HD 7990
OCZ 120GB VERTEX 2E
1TB HDD
antec truepower 750w

what could be causing this problem, i have not tried it again since but i will do.
dose the blue screen mean my OC is unstable?
im at 4.6ghz with 1.45core voltage 1.4 NB voltage so its not a extreme overclock but i would like to push it to 4.8+

so whats the problem with my PC? thanks guys
 
temps are fine, GPU never goes over 80deg CPU never goes over 65

RAM i dont know
SSD i dont know either
malware, how do i search and remove it if there is any?
 
it says SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTINON

atikmdag.sys

collecting data for crash dump ...
initializing disk for crash dump ...

i have no idea what any of that means lol

hmmm its strange, i cant start sleeping dogs at all, and its rarely it happens in BF4, not had any issues in other games
 
ive had my cpu and mobo about 7 10 weeks maximum, its always done it but never really too any notice but its starting to annoy me now.

i have 1.45 core voltage and NB voltage set to 1.3, what do i change to resolve this?

EDIT: i have my DRAM voltage set to auto, should i change this to a fixed voltage?

EDIT2: i have changed my vcore to 1.4v and my DRAM to 1.5v

going to see if sleeping dogs runs

neither, just a stock reference HD 7990

im at default bios settings now so stock CPU speed to narrow things down and its still the same BSOD

i dont have issues in any other games, sleeping dogs just dose not start up, BF4 rarely BSOD
 
ok,

so i re-installed the game, have my whole system running at stock, and still the same BSOD.

i have a feeling sleeping dogs dose not like something in my system, could it be my RAM?
