BlueScreen on a new x51 - I have no idea what this means and how to fix it - thanks.

@username9999

Apparently you been with your x51 since 20 days or so, did you installed  any new drivers or programs since?

Your dum file  seems to talk about system found a video problem.

Im not an expert on Dump files that's the reason i preferre using a program called WhoCrashes

Any way what video driver are you on now & are you on Bios02?

As near as I can tell that error means you own an X51 :-(

Many of us are having this problem with our X51's. I have had 2 days without a crash after installing the Nvidia series 500 drivers directly from their site. the updated Dell driver did not help me.

There are a number of threads on this subject as well.

Good Luck...YMMV

Hello @username9999

Try to update your video driver and your Bios and report back to see if that worked out for you

Nvidia  driver 295.73 WHQ  www.nvidia.com/.../win7-winvista-64bit-295.73-whql-driver.html

X51 Bios 02  www.dell.com/.../DriverFileFormats

Also ones everything is Ok  it wouldn't  be a bad idea to do windows update too :)

Done will kep you up to date if it worked.

Yes, I installed them and the problem appears to have been fixed, at least for 3 days.

Nvidia drivers are designed to work with all of the products in a series, even if they are only sold as OEM.

Will the drivers directly from Nvidia work for the GTX555 ? In their SUPPORTED PRODUCTS tab there is no mention of GTX555 ?

Hmmmm...interesting.

I had this same problem when I had the gtx 555 installed. I'm not insinuating this was the problem, whatsoever. I'm not sure what the 'root cause' even was but it happened a couple times on me, mostly when the X51 was just idle on a webpage. It would freeze, reboot itself to the BSOD - memory dumping - followed by a black screen mentioning that the internal drive was not recognized. I had to hard boot. After this happened twice, in the same day, I immediately uninstalled the gpu drivers and downloaded them from Nvidia, not the Dell site. The problem did go away. Funny thing is that I had used Alien Autopsy prior as someone else mentioned and haven't used it since...

Another mention is that I also had Windows Update issues at the same time. For some reason, a few of them wouldn't download and spat back error codes. Hope this helps.

Note: A couple things I recommend. Download OCCT and HD Tune and run checks. This is what I did when I reinstalled the drivers. Although the BSOD went away, I decided to stress test. The gpu, my former gtx 555, spat back a failure in the temperature after roughly 10 minutes. This is the reason why I changed it out. The gtx 555 is a 150W card, but I really feel that's the threshold limit in the X51 to it's 330W PSU. I prefer something less 'consumage' ,stable and recommend the 7850.

@jscarecrow78

It would be very helpful, if you post your Temps & the test results of your x51 with HD7850 before recommended it

@solrac135

You're absolutely right. I'll post all stress test info. (screenshots) on the other created forum, which I initially posted once I get back to my X51. I'm still running tests on it currently with panel on vs. off. I have found the temperatures to be roughly the same as the gtx 555. I'm going to test more throughout this weekend and have results out shortly.

  My pleasure :)  glad to hear that
