Do you have a spare HDD/SSD?
I have what is in my sig as well as an external and a spare 150gb raptor I used to use before getting the ssd.
If it's empty, you could install Windows on to it just to see if a fresh install still gives you crashes.
well the problem is that it's very random and infrequent, I'd be waiting a while or less that a day for it to happen and I don't really feel like doing nothing on an empty drive for that long...I've been planning a clean install for a few weeks now but wanted to make sure it wasn't a hardware issue first
I will however keep you guys posted once I've done the clean install, after a few days.
thanks for the help
If it crashes after a fresh install.....
Back to square one
but I've tested the potential culprits? Are there more?
There's a lot of details we can get in to, but since you were planning the reinstall go ahead and try that.
Codes point to HDD or cable, and driver errors (most likely vid card).
When you say 'clean' install, Did you wipe the drive?
yes, no image, clean install from scratch
HDD as in my Seagate Barracuda or my OS SSD?
I'm using the latest 14.3 beta driver for my GPU
