To upload DxDiag.txt output, the minidumps, and the full memory.dmp file (compressed with winrar on best setting, but still had to split into two files because of the 50MB restriction) to my skydrive public folder, linked below: I figured that someone on this site might be able to assist me with analysis of the minidumps and possibly find the real root cause of this issue. I am going to attempt to contact ATI support tomorrow. I have a very very difficult time believing that after 3 re-installsДЄnd 5 different versions of the drivers.

Microsoft Support technician controlled my computer for a few minutes, and I showed him the minidump file using dumpchk.exe, but he said that it looks to be just a video card driver issue.

Uninstalled Catalyst Suite, leaving bare drivers only (current config with version 10.5)ДЁ. Disabled Aero within Windows (no effect, re-enabled)Д§. **started happening like clockwork when I installed RollerCoasterTycoon3, crash guaranteed within 30 minutes of starting a scenario, this began on 6/1, so the following entires are from this past weekend to today** Attempted changing ATI Performance Profiles XMLД¬hanged CoreClockTarget and MemorењњlockTargetВ for Want_0 and Want_1 to be higher thanДefault, so the cardВ would not have to increase speeds as much (recommended via ATI (while reinstalling Windows, attempted to use ATI Catalyst Drivers version 9.12 (from original CD), 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, and finally 10.5 installed on )ДҐ. Took system to local computer shop and received a replacement video card from stock This would also happen while watching video clips in either Windows Media Player or VLC, and sometimes even when watching YouTube videos (both in IE or Firefox).ДЄHCI Controlled Hard Drives and CD-DrivesДЈ. Later, I would get a BSOD with either atikmdag.sys or lately it has been atikmpag.sys. I would be playing WoW and the game would freeze, the screen would turn gray, then black, then the fan on the video card would spin up to 100% throttle (Windows unloaded the video driver), then about 60-90 seconds I promptly installed Windows 7 Ultimate ењ†4 and started loading allВ up-to-date driversДЄndВ applications. I rebuilt my entire machine a couple months ago, after purchasing a TechNet Plus subscription, new ATI Radeon 5870 2GB video card, and new AMD PhenomII X4 965 CPU.

Okay, this is going to be long and drawn out, so let me start with my sincere apologies. *original title - Misc tasks running, screen freezes, video driver unloads (GPU fan defaults to 100% speed) and then BSOD atikmpag.sys - 3 months of pain*
