Problem description: My computer bluescreens randomly. In the past week or so, it bluescreened when opening a game, or just a few minutes into a game three times, and once when watching videos in a flash player. Today, I played several hours of Overwatch, but after restarting it after ~90 mins, it bluescreened within a couple minutes. Here is a link to the mini dump file. Bug Check String: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA Attempted fixes: I enabled system management of the page file on all my hard drives, increased the voltage on my overclocked CPU, cleaned out my dust filters, ran a disk check on all of my hard drives which showed no errors, and ran MemTest, also with no errors. GPU drivers are up to date. Recent changes: None that coincided with the onset of blue screens -- Operating system: Windows 7 Professional - 64 bit System specs: CPU: i5-2500k @ 3.8GHz GPU: Radeon HD 6870, 8 GB RAM SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB Other HDDs: a 1TB Samsung HDD, a 2TB WD Green Location: Canada I have Googled and read the FAQ: The attempted fixes were from google results. My guess is that it's either my SSD or my GPU that's causing errors, but I don't want to replace both blindly.

I realized I didn't check the firmware on my SSD, but Samsung Magician reports that it has the most up-to-date firmware available. It's looking less likely that my SSD is the problem. I will be monitoring my GPU temps as I game, to see if that is what's causing the BSODs.

And use http://www.hwinfo.com/download.php to check CPU temperatures too.

It doesn't seem to be caused by my GPU temps, they topped out at 78°C before it bluescreened earlier. I didn't see my CPU temps. I did manage to get a picture of the bsod though: Some googling says it is an AMD audio driver, so I made a restore point, uninstalled the driver, and we'll see what happens.
