Hello, I've been trying to solve a recurring random bluescreen issue that has cropped up since about 3 weeks ago. It happens once every few days seemingly randomly when my PC is sitting idle. I ran the Windows debugging tool and have pasted the output below. The only meaningful info I see is WIN8_DRIVER_FAULT and the Process Name being MSIAfterburner.exe. I have updated my graphics drivers and the issue persisted. So then I tried lowering the OC settings to something very mild, still no dice. So now I moved onto the next logical step of disabling MSI Afterburner for now and we'll see what happens next. Just wondering if anyone has experienced something similar to this.

did you try DDU to uninstall your graphics driver and then re-install them?
I also use Revolt Uninstaller which is awesome (not free). Works very well.

I went ahead and used DDU and reinstalled the latest drivers. We'll see if it helps. Thanks!

jfw06013
did you do it in safe mode?
if not do it in safe mode.

I did.

If it keeps happening with msi afterburner uninstalled install graphics driver 391.35.

Well it's been about a week, and I have not had another BSOD. I'm going to try and re-enable MSI Afterburner to see what happens next.

I will try your suggested driver version Sajin.

Appreciate the advice XrayMan, I will keep this in mind as the next step to try if the issue returns. The good news is, since downgrading to driver version 391.35 - things seem stable even with MSI Afterburner running. Hopefully that did the trick
