Recently my computer has been crashing, it seems pretty sporadic to be honest. It will crash when you open an internet window, world of warcraft, after a restart. I recently updated my video card and installed ram and i am sure that the ram if function with my motherboard as well as the video card (and installed new drivers for it). I am technical when it comes to computers however i just can seem to get this to work with me. I have included a hijackthis report, let me know if anything needs to be removed. I don't use this computer often so i cant tell what some of the software is. I don't have system deckard scanner installed, I also do not know what the blue screen displays because i had my computer to restart automatically but i recently turned that off so i should be able to update this post with more info as the specific blue screen error.

I never said i suspect a malware infection? i thought hijackthis logs were used for troubleshooting purposes and was trying to be helpful. I got the blue screen message as i said i would.

"dRiver_IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Stop: 0X000000D1
nv4_mini.sys - address B6D9F690 base at B6D32000, Datestamp 4a5ce2es"

[Broni]

Let's see, if we can get more info....

Download BlueScreenView
No installation required.
Double click on BlueScreenView.exe file to run the program.
When scanning is done, go Edit>Select All.
Go File>Save Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt.
Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all content, and paste it into your next reply.

By upgrading video card, do you mean, you bought new video card?

Most errors come from nVidia driver, but there are also some errors caused by system files.
If updating video card driver won't help, I suspect there may be something wrong with the card itself.
Error like PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA usually indicate some RAM problem. In your case, that would concern video card RAM.

[Venomz]

would you suggest replacing the video card then? I assume there is no way to fix corrupted RAM

[Broni]

You never answered my question:
