Ok, I got a new pc (used) a few months ago, ever since I bought it it has been crashing on me, sometimes it crashes once every few days, and sometimes twice a day. When it does crash it reboots, so I made the settings so where I could see the blue screen pop up, and this is what is says (the important stuff)
Tech Info


Blah blah blah,

***Stop: 0x0000008E (0xc0000005,0xBF09D455,0xEDF369DC,0x00000000

***ialmdd5.DLL-address BF09D455

Let's get more information on your bluescreens.

Download BlueScreenView
No installation required.
Unzip downloaded file and double click on BlueScreenView.exe file to run the program.
When scanning is done, go Edit>Select All.
Go File>Save Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt.
Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all content, and paste it into your next reply.
