Blue Screen of Death

[WhoIsZorak]

Every time I play CSGO I get the screen. I have about 50 hours on other games, so either it has something to do with CSGO or there is early wear and tear. Any help would greatly be appreciated. This is what I found on the event viewer: The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000124 (0x0000000000000000, 0xfffffa80083ae028, 0x00000000ba000000, 0x0000000081000402).

Also, if there is anything I can do to help anyone help me I am more than willing. I would greatly appreciate any help.

That's a hardware related error code though.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I tried the few I did not already do and none of it worked.

So this only happens in CS:GO?

Can you think back what might've changed since it started? Since not everyone suffers from this issue, it's possibly a conflict with something that's on your end.

What are your computer specs? Drivers?

The article mentions this, but surely you attempted it?

Selective Startup

Hold down the Windows and the R -buttons
Type in msconfig
Click the Selective Startup -option.
Untick Load Startup Items

Select the Services -tab; tick this:

Restart PC

My parts: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970, Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit & Asus Maximus Hero VII.
I don't recall anything changing. I checked Device Manager and I believe everything I have is up to date Driver wise.

Try clean installing the Nvidia -driver WHQL 347.88 if possible and see if it makes a difference?:

There's TDR issues on the 900 -series cards with WHQL 350.12 (rarely, but regardless), 352.86, 353.06 and 353.30.

Produces frequent crashing in gta 5 and the witcher 3. TDR or blackscreen/greyscreen system hangs where manual reboot is required which happen often but not as often as the tdr crashes. Same problem as 352.86 and 353.06. 350.12 also has this issue but its not as frequent at all and is tolerable. Seems like the last true stable driver for me was 347.88

For example.

How does your CPU temperature look while in game/under stress?

I just played a few rounds, my CPU never got above 56 Celsius and my gpu never got above 79 Celsius. However, my computer did not crash(possibly thanks to Teutep). Over heating never even crossed my mind. It is over 100 degrees Fahrenheit pretty much every day and I do only have the little fan that came with the CPU. I'll have to keep an eye on my temperatures going forward and see how hot my GPU or CPU is just before a crash
