BSOD when gaming

[Brandon3875]

fresh install of windows 8.1 after 5-30 mins of gaming I crash every time. The crashes get more frequent after the first one happens.

My guess, most likely it could either be a heat issue or your RAM.

What are the temps on your GPU and CPU when gaming?

Also, list your system specs.

 

[sanderzz]

Sounds like something's unstable, check your temps or it could be your PSU overloading. A spec would be useful.

What is that running at 128C??? That is massive overheating if that is correct.

 

[Brandon3875]

i use CPUID hw monitor. that number seems to be a non fluctuating number. might be a cumulative total or somethiing it never changes

 

[Brandon3875]

ok i believe the problem may be driver related and be related to my POS keyboard. Im using a merc z stealth and there are no drivers made for the thing after 2008. the driver in question is C:\Windows\System32\drivers Alpham264.sys I do not need the software for the keyboard. can i still use the keyboard with generic windows drivers? and how do i fix this driver issue

 

[Brandon3875]

You can try something else go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers and rename Alpham1.sys Alpham2.sys (on 64 bit versions Alpham264.sys Alpham164.sys) to Alpham1.sys.old Alpham2.sys.old. Unplug the keyboard plug it back in

will this be safe to do?

 

[Brandon3875]

ok I got the keyboard drivers sorted I think. new crash now...OMG
