    RAM's only at 666MHz? That is quite slow for a PC of those specs, I would have expected a minimum of 1333MHz...

    I'm sure it is at 1333MHz since it is double data rate so basically 666MHz x2. My RAM Modules are running at 933.3MHz for 1866MHz.

    Yep, it's 1330MHz.

    OT: Can you check your temps after playing for a while? Both CPU and GPU? It might be that it's getting hot.
    I would also run cleanup.bat on your BeamNG folder and then run the updater (twice so it asks you if you want to force it, say yes).

    Edit: Also, have you reinstalled windows recently? My PC had a time here it bluescreen after I reinstalled Windows, since I had pretty much nothing installed, I reinstalled it again and it started working fine. Exact same error message as you, it's pretty common...

    I ran it and it told me about the recent crashes and it told me that 2 third party drivers were causing them : atikmpag.sys (AMD multi-vendor Miniport Driver, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.)iomap64.sys (ASUS Kernel Mode Driver for NT , ASUSTeK Computer Inc.) which is my graphics card and i had updated my graphics card a few days ago and yes the crashing was still hapening before that.
    What should i do know?

    Like Bubble said, try computer forums, we can't really discuss that here :s
    All I can say is reinstall the video card drivers and try again, if it continues, it's probably an hardware problem...

    Sorry I couldn't help, it's really difficult to help without actually looking at the Computer and fiddling with Windows for a bit :s

    If you can, it would be your best option! Re-installing Windows gets rid of any possible software problems that you computer might have and leaves only hardware related problems (if there is any). That way you know, if it keeps doing it, it's hardware related and you can solve it easily :)
