Corrupt Files, should I just reformat?

[PLGhost187]

Hello All,

I have been having a few issues within the last 3 weeks that culminated, or so it seems, in a BSOD earlier today. The first issue was losing signal to my monitor while gaming (Dragon Age Inquisition) but the system stays on which occurred a few times. I then experienced a one-time issue where my pc rebooted to the user login screen without the system actually rebooting. Today, while playing GTA V, I got the BSOD shown in this pic by another member with the same issue http://postimg.org/image/q1ojgcyq3/ and have since learned that it is suspected to be a driver issue or a corrupted file issue. I ran sfc.exe /scannow and corrupted files were found but not fixed so my question is should I just reformat? Is it possible that there are other issues as well? Is there an easier option than reformatting? Thanks for the help in advance.

Regards,

Travis

on hwinfo no the sensor page on the bottom at the right of the clock there is a log button . the no signal could from bad video cable or the gpu itself that overheath and cut or start to be defective it need to be check on another system .

Thanks for the play-by-play scout, it saved me some time. Just wanted to say that I've played a few sessions and recorded but (thankfully?) there have been no crashes. I will continue to record until I get a crash then post back. Thanks for the help so far.
