Hi,

I'm having issues with a BSOD showing the above error. I have run memory test and it shows a error also (unsure of the error) but advised to pull each of the RAM sticks until thr BSOFD stops) - I've pulled each stick in turn but yet the error remains.

Also been advised it could be my video card driver, Ive updated this also.

I've downloaded blue screen viewer and here is the readout from the last few blue screens;

Can anyone start to unpick this for me, or at least point me in the right direction

This happens when you load an incompatible driver.

Windows has drivers which will run your video card, already built in. (you don't need the current manufacturer driver)
So I suggest you get to the driver, and load older (previous) versions which may be compatible.
Start>control panel> click on ">" in the control panel > path bar, (this opens a drop down menu) then click "all control panel options."
This displays all the hidden controls...
Click System> Device manager> Display adapters, Click on your video card> Click the driver tab> From there try to install or roll back the drivers.

As a starting point, try to use the built in Windows driver, instead of the downloaded updated driver...

Use system restore if you can to turn the hard...

Use system restore if you can to turn the hard drive back to a time before the problem occurred. Provided restore points have been created...
Start>All Programs>accessories>System Tools>System Restore

Avoid ANY free program from the internet which claims to "fix" problems.
