I am getting blue screen error when I am playing nfs. Sometimes I can play for a minute or so and sometimes it crashes just on the menu itself. I think it's something related to my graphic card. Btw I have no problem playing arkham city. Mine is Dell inspiron 15r SE. It has hd4000 and amd 7730m. I think something has happened with the graphic card. Please tell me how to solve this problem. How can I check if my graphic card is working properly or not?

I'm trying to attach the dump file but this site is not allowing it!? I tried putting it in a zip,rar file but no success. I even tried to rename it as txt but still uploader is showing a red exclamatory sign next to it. WTF?

Ok I managed to save bsod file as txt using bluescreen viewer. It's only 2KB and still the uploader is not allowing!!!!!
:-x

Some more info : All this issues started when I updated my gpu last month(I was installing catalyst 13.x). After update I was not able to play any video in any player. It was showing some codec error something related to graphic card was mentioned like amd transcode or something. Anyway so I had to uninstall it and reinstall some older drivers. That's when this started happening

Are you able to play Arkham City even now without any errors?

what driver version are you using?? i have no problems with it on my 15r se..

Try to use these drivers only:
intel: 15.28: *downloadmirror.intel.com/22376/a08/win64_152812.zip

AMD (stable): 13.4: *www2.ati.com/DriverS/mobile/13-4_mobility_vista_win7_win8_64_dd_ccc_whql.exe
OR
AMD (beta): 13.6beta2: *www2.ati.com/drivers/beta/AMD_Catalyst_13.6_Mobility_Beta2.exe

i am using intel 15.28 and amd 13.6beta2, and have no problems...
