This is the BSOD you experienced:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa469184.aspxThe error points to a problem with the GPU/drivers.When does this error occur and how often? Did it just start happening?Have you unistalled and reinstalled the display adapter drivers? Was there a previous version of display adapter drivers that were stable?Also, can you zip up the minidump files in the C:\Windows\Minidump folder and make available via Windows SkyDrive or similar site?

Yesterday. It occurs when I'm listening to media, or watching youtube and such. It would start skipping and slowing, then the screen would completely freeze and go black. The BSOD then pops up. Sometimes it's random though.Yes I have, a friend said something about not allowing windows to automatically installing the adapter drivers and downloading it from the main site.And no, not for Windows 7. I have the latest driver for Windows 7 x64 bit.http://www.4shared.com/file/148847608/fa691c5a/Minidump.html

OK, the minidump files revealed aVIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (116) Stop Error. However the errorsare being caused by the nvlddmkm.sys.Thenvlddmkm.sys is an NVIDIA displaydriver (NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver).Can you double-check in the Device Manager and expand "Display Adapters".What display adapter is showing?Can you double-click the display adapter > DriverWhat is the DriverProvider, Driver Date and Driver Version?

I probably can, but I do not know how.Some steps would be nice, and thank youuuu! ^-^

Unfortunately every computer in different. So you should check the documentation that came with the computer.What computer (make/model) do you have?You could try disabling the NVIDIA display adapter in the Device Managerbutit would be preferable to disable it in the BIOS.BTW, did you just add the Radeon card?

Ah okay, I'll figure it out then. :)It's an Acer aspire x1200The radeon card has been in for a few months now.Edit: Did a quick restart and looked through the BIOS. The radeon 4550 is the primary display. So, should I just disable the Nvidia in devices?

Hello Starkiss, First of all, remove all unnecessary hardware devices from the computer, try entering Windows safe mode to test whether it is a third-party software/hardware compatibility issue. If so, please download and run Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to check the reason for the issue. If the issue is caused by some incompatible driver, you might go to Device Manager, right click your hardware device in the list and select Update Driver Software; then click Search automatically for updated driver software. If the latest video driver could not work well on the issue, test the legacy Vista and XP driver in compatibility mode. If you still get the BSOD error, please understand that Windows system uses separated user mode and kernel mode memory space, stop errors are always caused by kernel portion components, such as a hardware device, third-party drivers, backup software or anti-virus services (buggy services). The system goes to a blue screen because there is some exceptions happened in the kernel (either the device driver errors or the service errors), and Windows implements this mechanism: When it detects some errors occur in the kernel, it will kill the box in case some more severe damage happens. Then we get a blue screen or the system reboots (it depends on what the system settings are). To troubleshoot this kind of kernel crash issue, we need to debug the crashed system dump. Unfortunately, debugging is beyond what we can do in the forum. A suggestion would be to contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support (CSS) via telephone so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist with your request. Please be advised that contacting phone support will be a charged call. To obtain the phone numbers for specific technology request please take a look at the web site listed below: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;PHONENUMBERS If you are outside the US please see http://support.microsoft.com for regional support phone numbers. I hope the problem will be resolved soon. Thanks! Andy

Edit: Did a quick restart and looked through the BIOS. The radeon 4550 is the primary display. So, should I just disable the Nvidia in devices? You can disable it in the Device Manager and restart the computer. That should stop the NVIDIA display drivers from loading.There is a potential that the onboard video may become enabled at some point in the future such as if a "repair install"of the Operating System was performed.Then you would have to disable the NVIDIA again.Also, disabling the onboard video via the BIOS may free up system memory which may be dedicated to the onboard graphicsI would suggest to contact Acer Supportand see if and how you can disable the onboard graphics via the BIOS.Setting PCI-E (Radeon 4550)as primary displayis correctbut there may be another or different BIOSsetting that needs to be changed such as "Dual Monitor" support.
