Looks like that was it! Bad RAM! Been running games hard on the new RAM for the last few days, all graphics maxed out, and not a single crash! So, the key here was Memtest86, since it came back with all those errors, when the Windows Memory Diagnostic said everything was fine. Thank guys, so...

Memtest86 came back with a slew of errors, so I bought new RAM. Installed today. I'll run/test it for a few days and let you guys know!

Want to thank you both again for helping! You're rock stars. DDU'd, then installed 388.13 and still crashes. I placed msinfo.nfo into a rar file, should hopefully download better: msinfo.rar - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LQ07At9oP4p4D0Sqiho_S0qLaeUETY6j/view?usp=sharing I'll try pulling...

Used DDU, then installed Nvidia driver 418.81, which is the oldest one they have on their site. Still crashing. :(

Ok, I uninstalled AVG, ran DDU, reinstalled 440.97 NVidia drivers (without GeForce Experience), rebooting throughout. Tried game, crashed within 2 minutes. No new BSOD, so no new dumps. I believe that's everything you guys have suggested so far. Going to do some research on loading an...

You guys are too awesome, thanks for such a quick reply! I had tried it without AVG installed before, and most recent test AVG was disabled. But I'll try uninstalling again for this troubleshoot. I'll get you my BIOS version on reboot. And I'll try DDU, and Small Memory Dump, per your...

Please help! I'm getting constant crashes with graphically demanding games. Doesn't happen with low intensity games. I've tried: Clean windows install, flashed bios, updated all drivers, I don't OC, uninstalling everything (GeForce Experience, Virus Protection, etc.), verified integrity of game...

So motherboard could be going bad? Besides replacing the board, is there anything I could do to verify/fix it?

Ok guys, here's a doozy. For the past couple of weeks my computer will occasionally freeze or I'll shut it down and when I boot it up it will give me the error "Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer Unexpected I/O error has occurred. Status...

Thanks guys! I did some tests with various games, including GW2 and Shogun 2, and it looks like I'm maxing out the RAM on my video card or the GPU. My standard RAM didn't get above 56%, and my total CPU didn't get above 78%, although I did have a few single cores spike to 100% during intense...

Hey guys, can you look at my specs and tell me where I'm bottle-necking? I was considering upgrading my GTX 460 to a GTX 660 but I didn't want to without checking with you guys to see if I wasn't bottle necked somewhere else. Thanks for the help! CPU: Intel Core i7 950 @ 3.07GHz (8CPUs) 3.1GHz...
