All of the sudden, my pc is beginning to blue screen either in the middle of when I'm playing CS:GO, or during the map load. I'm not very good with pc's but I tryed to update my GPU drivers and no dice. I managed to get the error code:

0x00000000, 0x0000001C, 0x00000001, 0x804FB09C

I'm running Windows XP 32 bit, AMD Phenom X3 @ 2.8, GTX 260, MA790GP-UD4H, Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG

Not sure if any of that info is relevant. Any and all knowledgeable suggestions are appreciated, let me know if I left out any vital information

It's the fact that your GPU or CPU is not getting enough power to run. So the PC blue screens. To figure out if it's your CPU or GPU run a GPU test and if if bluescreens it's due to the fact your CPU is not getting enough power. If your PC does fine in the CPU test, its that your GPU is not getting enough power. To up the CPU voltage (witch does add more heat output) Just simply go into your BIOS as for your GPU just use MSI afterburner or Asus tweak


could be overheating, or psu / hd could be going bad.

Most hard drive manufacturers have free software to check their health.

You could get msi afterburner and check temperatures while gaming.

 
I downloaded speed fan and checked temps during gaming and everything is fine. I also just ran Mem Test on all of my RAM and there was zero errors found. So from what I can see, its not an overheating issue, GPU driver issue or a memory issue
