I have a problem with BSODs. It seems that when I run certain applications, mainly games, I get a BSOD radomly. I will use EVE online as an example: When it loads a new scene, it freezes for a second or so, and then takes a dump. BSOD flashes and reboots. I have the .dmp file:
Comment: 'Dr. Watson generated MiniDump'
Symbol search path is: *** Invalid ***
****************************************************************************
* Symbol loading may be unreliable without a symbol search path. *
* Use .symfix to have the debugger choose a symbol path. *
* After setting your symbol path, use .reload to refresh symbol locations. *
****************************************************************************
Executable search path is:
Windows XP Version 2600 (Service Pack 2) MP (2 procs) Free x86 compatible
Product: WinNt, suite: SingleUserTS

Is this the file I need?
Thanks for any advice,
Nick

It may be that you need to update you graphics card drivers, i had a similiar problem with an expertvision nvidia graphics card. You can download new drivers from the manufacturers website. If that doesnt help you may need to think about testign the PC without the card installed to rule it out!
