I have a custom PC which i built about 3 years ago now. It worked without flaw for about 6 months to a year when i started having little problems with it. Nothing I couldnt fix, but the problems have not stopped since then.
While playing games for an extended period of time it will blue screen and restart. Other time I shut the game down before it blue screen but still freezes bsod's and restarts once i get to windows. Another thing that has come up within the past month is that while watching movies in VLC the video will get all choppy and distorted. The audio still sounds okay, and you can see whats goin on in the movie, but it is too distorted to see someone's face.
I started the computer running Vista Ultimate 64 but changed after a while because...well...it was vista. Running XP, Vista, and Windows 7 all have the same problems. Only OS that wouldn't mess up is Ubuntu (which is installing as i type away at my laptop lol)
I have done everything I can think of to stop these issues but to no avail.
BSOD code: Stop 0x000000116
I know this is supposed to be a driver issue but like i said i have tried re-installing operating systems, drivers, and even different hardware and i Keep having the same problem.
Hardware:
EVGA 780i
XFX HD Radeon 4890
WD Caviar 500 GB
8 GB Corsair Dominator DDR2
Intel Q6600 @ 2.40
NZXT Lexa Blackline Case
First graphics card was 8800GTX. Sold it because i thought that was the problem...which it aparently isnt.
If anyone has any idea as to how to fix this please let me know.
