Hi Compton and welcome. Can you please post your system specs. You can post your specs yourself or follow the simple guide below.

I have seen GuiltySpark request system specs using this tool and I think members who are asking for help should post specs.

Hi Compton,

Does it happen all the time as it looks like a one off graphics issue (probably RAM related)?
nope it only happen yesterday since then no blue screen,I will run a memory test with memtest86
one question can you test 2 memory stick at the sometime with memtest86
Windows 7 has a built in memory diagnostics tool.

Click Start>
      Control Panel>
      Administrative Tools>
      Windows Memory Diagnostics>

It will prompt you and recommend that you choose the restart now and check memory for problems.
ok guys

I run the test using windows 7 build in memory tester no problem detected test pass 2 of 2

the blue screen was cause by tcpip.sys. tcpip is a internet Protocol

I do run private internet access vpn client on my pc by this company https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/

do you guys think that the vpn client can cause a problem?
I would start of with the basics.
  • tcpip.sys could be corrupt (run sfc /scannow)
  • Re-install networking drivers
  • Check dump file with whocrashed
How to run System File Checker (This works for Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8 or 8.1)

  1. Click Start > All Programs > Accessories, right-click on Command Prompt and choose Run as administrator.
  2. A black prompt box will open with a blinking cursor.
  3. Type "sfc /scannow" and hit ENTER.
  4. System File Checker will begin scanning for errors and system file problems (be patient - it can take a while to complete).

How to Rebuild TCP/IP Stack

How often do BSOD happen?
ok guys
did sfc /scannow check  resource protection did not find integrity violations

reinstall all network driver

also rebuild TCP/IP Stack

here is the who crash report  malwarebytes has a part in it

the BSOD only happen Thursday since then no BSOD happening
It possible malwarebytes is the causing both of these crash dump files. 

Maybe try MBAM Clean Removal Process 2.x
