Unknown Issue, Numorous Game Crashes. atikmpag.sys

Keeps recurring approx. every time it runs a graphically demanding application/game and randomly fails and BSODs, and doesn't seem to be a overclocking issue. But I manually set the CPU to 3.7 GHz, and memory is overclocked to 3200 GHz on the motherboard only. This may be a fault, but memtest showed 0 errors after running its set of tests. Clock speeds should not matter unless it goes past the advertised boost clock speed. I am not sure where to turn on for this issue. GPU is not overlocked, but only fan curve is adjusted.

Please help me with this issue. Thank you for your time.

Start by disabling any overclocking while we investigate the issue. See if the removal of overclocking provides stability to the system.

I would also recommend removing software that provides overclocking through Windows and/or interfaces with the hardware while it is performing intensive calculations:

Code:

Start Menu\Programs\MSI Afterburner
Start Menu\Programs\MSI Afterburner\SDK
Start Menu\Programs\RivaTuner Statistics Server
Start Menu\Programs\RivaTuner Statistics Server\SDK

Code:

Bugcheck code 0000007F

A 0x7F is often due to memory corruption and/or an overclocking failure. See above for steps to try.


Note: It is difficult to determine issues when provided with only one .dmp file. Please refrain from cleaning your drive of crash dumps, e.g. ccleaner or Windows Disk Cleanup.
