Do you only get blue screens when playing total war games?

Can you list your system specs as well as operating system?

(you didn't specify what OS so if you're using windows 7 try this first) Bring up the start menu, click on Computer, right click whichever drive windows is installed on, go to properties, click the tools tab, and under "Error-checking" click "Check now..."

Have you been playing these games and using the PC successfully for a long period of time and the blue screens only recently started happening? Another thing you can do is check application & system logs in event viewer, look for any events occurring around the exact time of day that a blue screen occurred

Well I used to have 2 incompatible pairs of RAM so when I played games the BSODS were constant but now that I have 1 pair of compatible RAM It's been happening every now and then. For example I've played NTW for about 6 hours this week and it just BSOD'd for the first time with the new RAM, which made me make this thread.

Alright I let chkdsk run over night and it booted itself right back up when it was done. If this was the problem, should it be fixed now?
