    Just download and run the DirectX web installer that I linked to in the previous post and run the setup file. Allow it to complete and then reboot the computer.

    Since your motherboard includes an integrated video chip, try turning off your computer, unplug all the cables from the back of the machine and open up the case. Take out the dedicated AMD Radeon HD 6670. Then close up the case, reconnect all the cables and connect your monitor to your motherboards integrated video chip and power on the computer. See if the computer still BSOD's while running on the integrated graphics chip.

    Just a little note regarding AVG, it embeds itself in the Registry and the only way to remove it completely, I used Reg Seeker and deleted all that names AVG.
    I did first use the AVG removal software, but it left plenty behind in the Registry.

    You can perform a clean install of Windows but I'd like you to run through a couple of other steps first.

    We have been focusing on updating your drivers and it hasn't helped so I'd like to move on to testing a couple of hardware components.

    Please download SeaTools for Windows and run the program. On the basic tests category run through each test except for the advanced tests and see if the program throws up any errors.

    Also I forgot to ask are you overclocking any components at all? What is the make and model of your computers power supply?

    It looks like we can rule out your hard drive, and video card as being the cause of the blue screens.

    You also didn't address the two questions that I asked in my previous post.

    One thing I'd like to look at is your system temperatures. Download and run Open Hardware Monitor. Then while the computer is running a game, post a screenshot of your systems temperatures using Open Hardware Monitor in your next reply.

    Your temperatures look fine. Have you opened up the computer case and inspected the motherboard and video card for any blown or leaky capacitors? Is there any dust or dirt present that is clogging any of the fans?

    i cleaned out the inside when i changed video cards to the default one but im not sure what a blown or leaky capacitor looks like. Recently my BSODS only happen when gaming, or when the computer is under stress. Not sure if that is relevant. Thanks for your help :)

    The bulging or leaking capacitors look like this.

    At this point I am running out of things for you to try.

    Download and run this tool, HeavyLoad. Under Test Options run each test singly by itself and see if you can use that program to figure out what component is causing the computer to blue screen.

    If that doesn't help then I would be looking at the motherboard or power supply as the cause of the problem.
