BSOD, crashing - ATIeRecord followed by Kernel-Power issue

Hey all, I'm going to keep this short and simple until someone can point me to the proper information to send your way to help out.

I've had intermittent issues with my PC since purchase, beginning with an occasional BSOD when playing games.  It wasn't often so I didn't pay it any mind.  But as time went on, it's become more and more common to the point where any benchmark game is causing problems. I'm now running 10 instead of 8.1. I understand this is the 8.1 forum, but the errorr were similar (not exact same descriptions but same chain of events) in 8.1 as it is now in 10. 

I've tried clean installs, installing and removing drivers, safe mode.

The issue:  Whenever changing settings for a game, or entering into fullscreen mode I get a BSOD.  I've done the basics: clean install, safe mode, ect. 

Light info:  In event log I get this (same order every time when I get a crash/shutdown

Error ATIeREcord 16396

A number of devicesetupmanager warnings

Followed by error Devicesetupmanager 131

and culminating in a critical Kernel-Power 41

I know this is basic info, but once we can head in the right direction, I can provide details or a dmp file if necessary.  Just need to know how many dmp files or what details are needed

Thanks!

Hi Eternal,

Thank you for your question.

This might be happening as the latest version of the ATI driver is not stable yet. You met revert back to the older version and check if it works fine. You may later update to the latest version.
I would suggest you to uninstall the ATI drivers and all other softwares that related to ATI and then check if that helps.
To uninstall drivers
1. Click on Start menu, type in devmgmt.msc to open the Device Manager.   
2. The Device Manager will then display a list of installed devices in the right pane of the console.  
3. Expand the category for Display Adapters.  
4. Right-click the device and select Properties.  
5. Select the Driver tab on the device's Properties dialog box.  
6. Click the Uninstall Driver button.  
A dialog box will pop up asking you to confirm Uninstall. Click OK to proceed.  
Also remove the driver softwares
 
To uninstall related software from Programs and features follow the link given below.
Uninstall or change a program
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Uninstall-or-change-a-program
 
Once you uninstalled the driver check if the computer works fine.

If the issue persist, we could refer to the following link to resolve it:

If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

Best Regard,

I'll be looking into it more this week (I'm out of town till Monday). I do want to point out I've already rolled back my drivers to two previous versions already and I'm still having the same issue. The other thing is that this type of issue would occasionally pop up in the past. The new drivers might have exsaberated the issue but it did not originate with the most recent update. I'll take a step back one more and see where I am, then follow the provided link.
