I need some help as I'm stuck and have no idea what else to try or do
I keep getting a 0x00000116 BSOD error and from what I've read is that its to do with the graphics
The card I am using is the Gigabyte HD4870x2 (multi gpu)
I am running Windows 7 PRO 64bit
I have tried the following from what I've read across several forums:
Updating graphics drivers - currently on 12.4
Changing everything back to default speeds - CPU was OC
Added a DWORD TdrDelay entry to the registry
Ran SFC.exe /scannow

The card is not overheating, it is running fine and I have increased the fan on the card to 80%

Here is what is in the minidump file that I got from Bluescreenviewer

It could also be another device/component, such as an addon card or even your PSU. So if it still happens after the DX update, I suggest you start troubleshooting by removing other extras.
