Hey everyone,
I bought an alienware Aurora R4 a while ago, since the last year I've been getting blue screens whenever I run certain games (most games). It used to only be high graphic intensity games but recently it's also low graphic games like Star Wars:KOTOR. I'd be playing the game for a few minutes and my computer freezes. Some games freeze on startup, other games freeze as soon as I change th resolution to something higher. I can play Assassin's Creed 1 en The Witcher for some reason... I've done anything from deleting drivers and reinstalling and fully updating to a complete clean install. If what I can find online is right it has to be a hardware issue.
The blue screen I get is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION
My question is, what hardware should I replace, and if I replace let's say my graphics card (wich I think is the problem), should I also replace any other hardware?
