Wasn't sure about where to put this so it ended up here since I only get BSOD when exiting a game.
Details:
Windows 7
Steam (updated)
D&D Neverwinter (yes the f2p one)
Old Boistar T6 mobo
Old AMD athlonII
no GPU (driver probs in the past)
Doesn't seem to matter how I close the game, about the time I think it has made a clean exit it crashes the whole system. Couldn't get a pic quick enough to get the last BSOD. I think it said something about problem with win32k.sys
So is that the only game with that issue? And you should totally throw together a cheapo APU build over that man
Seems to be. I can play Quake live with no problems. Those are really the only two I've been playing lately. Still saving for a "real" full rebuild to get into the modern day so I can play some games that have been released in the last decade.....
Well what do ya got so far? You can probably reuse a lot of parts. Otherwise reintsall windows, and check your hard drive health with like crystal disk mark or something, although if it's just that game, hell if I know what's wrong
If this board and all survives until I get a new system built, it may become a home built router or small NAS. The one thing I like about the board is it has SATA and IDE HDD ports. Something that has long since been abandoned but I like the fact I don't have to trash every IDE drive I had laying around. [Obviously I'm not using IDE as my main drive before you make that assumption :P ]
If it's just this one game then I think I'll easily get over it when I can actually play Skyrim on a nice new sys.
Thought you had a low budget situation, but I saw the laptop thread.
Check your windows event log to see what's up
And I thought I had watched every vid on the channel.....
Yea the build won't be budget, just have to get settled into the new job before I have that "unlimited" budget.
Thanks
Thanks for reminding me about that tool. So I'm going to dump some errors that I see from around the time it happened and see if anyone is more knowledgeable or a better internet searcher than me.
