Hello,
my computer has this problem (blue screen error)!
It doesn’t appear always or anywhere, it appears only when I play games like (Call of duty or Prototype).
While playing games this error appears after 15-20 minutes.
what do you think? Where is the problem? Hardware or Software?
Any solution?

I faced consecutive 3 blue screen from yesterday. Can it be for installing Bitdefender antivirus? faced the problem during streaming videos from internet. don’t know if this is coincidence. what to do?
I have tried all methods suggested on the internet including microsoft hotfix and none of them helped.
Microsoft,as usually, was least helpful
Please explain when are you getting this error message? Please provide me the error code as well.
I am facing problem with my system some days before , i have changed system RAM 4 GB to 8 GB after that system giving me blue screen error why any solutions for this?
Maybe the RAM you have changed (8GB) has a different frequency than 4GB. Different frequency RAM can be the cause of this blue screen.
No its same Frequency and same company i am using 1333 Mhz DDR3 Ram
Then it should not act like this. Is your operating system 32bit or 64bit version?
I am using window 7 sp1 ultimate 64 bit.
Windows 7 64bit can use unlimited RAM. We have to do research on it and then we can give you an answer. While time you can do update your windows, if it works.
