Hi
Last week, my desktop started crashing. The first time, I was playing Civ 5. The second time too. Then it it restarted withthe graphics card driver having been disabled by Windows. I initally thought the problem was Civ 5 or maybe the graphics cardor motherbord - both getting old, so I tried reinstalling Civ 5 (no help) and moving the graphics card from one pcie slot to another. I have no other graphics card to test with, so I can'tknow if that is the problem or not without buying a new one.
The graphics card driver issue persisted for a few reboots,sometimes working, sometimes not.
I've tried updating the graphics card driver, both from the version I had and by uninstallingand installing a new version (windows automatically installed one when I unistalled it, and I updated from that). That did not help.
It keeps crashing. Twice while playing Civ 5 (I've tried recreating the crash situations, but it seems random), but also while being idle without the game running, or while reading on this forum or other pages using Internet Explorer. Sometimes I've had to use the power button to turn the computer off and on again, as nothing has worked. Other times, it has rebooted on its own. Quite a few times, the graphics card driver has been disabled by Windows when restarting, but quite a few times it has worked as well.
I then went through all the optional Windows updates and installed the ones that appeared to possibly be related to graphics card or the 0x00000050 bug check code i got in BlueScreenView. That appears to have solved the graphics card disableingsituation(it hasn't happened since- that was yesterday evening), but the computer still crashes irradically. I don't know why, but the dump files only shows three crashes overthe past three days. Does it only show those where Windows reboots itself? Anyhow... these three show the following information in BlueScreenView:
11. November 2017 at 11.57.29. Bug Check String: CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION. Bug check code:0x000000f4. Caused by driver: ntoskrnl.exe. ntoskrnl.exe ismarked red with Address in stack ntoskrnl.exe+37b600, Time String 13.09.2017 15:55:13, File version 6.1.7601.23915.

I don't know what kind of information you need to help me. I would like to find out if the problem is driver(s), windows updates, the graphics card, the motherboard,a need for a reinstallation of Windowsor something completely different.And if the problemcan be solved simply by installing/reinstallingsomething or changing some settingssomewhere.
System information:
- Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
- CPU: IntelCore i7 4790K @ 4.00 GHz
- Installed memory (RAM): 16 GB
- Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 513
