Hey guys, so about a week ago my computer got a BSOD and I didn't think much of it and restarted my computer. It ran slow, but I thought it'd get better over time. Skip forward a week; my computer is back to somewhat its original working power, but games tend to lag a lot and they crash quite a bit. They randomly get black screens, freeze, then go back into the game.
Another BSOD happened to my just now, and I'm getting quite worried. The computer is working slower (not really slow; just slower) and I've run virus scans but my computer has come up clean. I ran CCleaner to clean out my registry, and don't really know what to do.
A point in the right direction would be much appreciated, and any information as to identifying what's going on would be wonderful. Thanks!

What's the error that you get on BSOD? Make sure to turn off automatic restart after bluescreens.
Also, shot in the dark, update drivers.
What type of BSOD?

Sorry, but I don't quite understand what you mean by that.. I wasn't doing anything resource heavy at the time of the BSOD; I was only browsing the internet with my music player running.. And when the error popped up, I didn't think much of it and just restarted; I didn't really read anything that came up, so I can't really tell you as to what the technicalities were.

Also, why do you people acquire Ultimate? You know it contains like no useful features above Professional.
