OK, so now my computer won't boot. Here's the chain of events:
Put in new ram (recommended here on another thread). Computer boot just fine and I played games for several hours with no problems.
Go back to it the next day and it crashes immediately when starting the game (the whole PC, not just game) and I get the BSOD with system_service_exception and amdkmdag.sys failed.
Fiddle around doing driver updates for my Radeon GPU, and do a windows update. Then it would crash sometimes immediately, and sometimes it would only crash after playing for like an hour, and once it crashed after I exited the game.
Here's the different errors I've seen:
kmode_exception_not_handled and ntfs.sys failed.
page_fault_in_nonpaged_area
pfn_list_corrupt
pfn_list_corrupt
It's always a different error message, and all of the googling says driver issues. I've used the DDU and uninstalled the radeon drivers and downloaded them again and installed again. Game played great for about 20 minutes then crashed to one of the above errors.
It's worth noting that I notice my graphics card is very heavy and the corner sags a bit, doesn't seem right so I supported it with an appropriately sized item. I removed the graphics card, put it back with a support, and my PC worked for a solid hour of gaming before crashing to the above messages (pfn_list_corrupt on this one). I've tried re-installing the ram, no luck. Now PC won't boot at all - the keyboard lights up but monitor never comes on.
