This should be a fun one to solve. I always like the gamers and helping out.

The crash is blamed on your video card driver, but that is much less than likely. To put it bluntly, it's not.

Code:
Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.

BugCheck 3B, {c0000005, fffff88004c2d705, fffff880037377e0, 0}

Probably caused by : atikmdag.sys ( atikmdag+35e705 )

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (3b)
An exception happened while executing a system service routine.
Arguments:
Arg1: 00000000c0000005, Exception code that caused the bugcheck
Arg2: fffff88004c2d705, Address of the instruction which caused the bugcheck
Arg3: fffff880037377e0, Address of the context record for the exception that caused the bugcheck
Arg4: 0000000000000000, zero.
The cause is very likely near 100% to be sptd.sys and Daemon Tools along with what I'll tell you next.

Please uninstall Daemon Tools in the normal method.

Then, use the installer/uninstaller found here to remove sptd.sys:

Reboot.

Another notorious bsod cause are old Razer drivers. Lo and behold you have one from 2005, which is no good:

Code:
Razerlow Razerlow.sys Mon Nov 07 01:33:11 2005
Please update your particular Razer device from the following website:

Your Gigabit ethernet driver asked me to tell you please update me:

Code:
L1C62x64 L1C62x64.sys Wed Apr 01 01:09:17 2009
Let this MSI page scan for latest drivers and install:

---------------------


I think that should do it. If you have more problems, please let me know by posting a new crash dump after taking care of the above.

If no further problems, please let us know about that instead.

Good luck and enjoy.
