Occasional red screen and blue screens when playing various games.

It says this is incompatible with 64 bit versions of windows. Gosh, this motherboard was a mistake lol.

So, I got an updater for gigabyte motherboards since it didn't want to update with that specific file. It seemed to have worked for now. I played some overwatch to test it for about 45 minutes. It usually crashes in the first 20. Nothing yet. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all your help so far. I really appreciate it.

So...it just red screened again. The F3 update for the BIOS doesn't seem to want to work. I'm really unsure of why it doesn't support 64 bit Windows, but supports a 9590....

If you refer to your motherboard manual on page 83 it will explain the various ways of updating the BIOS. Which methods have you tried so far?

There is a utility called @BIOS which can update the BIOS from within Windows (see page 86). If this did not work then you will have to use the Q-Flash method (see pages 84-85).

I believe that I've only tried @BIOS. So, I need to start following those instructions on Q-Flash installation I'm guessing?

According to the CPU compatibility list for your motherboard the 9590 needs the F3 BIOS in order to work properly. I'm hopeful that if you can get this updated it will solve the problem. Q-flash should work as it is all done from within the BIOS.

I have used Q-Flash to update my BIOS. No blue or red screens yet. I'll keep you posted.

Small update. I'm only crashing when playing TF2. I've played much more demanding games for much more time such as GTA V and Overwatch for hours but when I jump on TF2 after about 20 minutes or less, it blue screens or freezes. I'm thinking it has to do with DirectX9 possibly. Not sure, though.

Post a new set of logfiles and one of us will take a look.

Update: I got another red screen whilst playing overwatch...I'm slowly losing my will to live with this computer...lol
