The Darkness II causing Blue Screens.

[Cariad†]

I have searched online for hours(yes, I'm counting!) about how to fix this but I cant find a way. I can run most games with 60+ fps(Exception of games with HD shadows).
I can play Skyrim with average of 50 - 60FPS in High and Ultra about 30 - 40 FPS.
Battlefield 3 on max with I think 50 - 60(Surprisingly undemanding game).
Crysis with EQM + Ultra High config with about 30 - 40(Due to high shadows).


16GB DDR3 RAM
AMD FX eight core processor 3.10GHz
AMD Radeon HD 6700HD(AMD Radeon HD 7750 or 7770 in 4 days)
1TB HDD Space
650 Watt PSU
Windows 7 X64 Home Premium



Like I said. NO Game does this. A lot of people have had this issue but really nobody has given much of an answer.
Anybody here know a way to fix this? Like I said it isn't my system having problems. It's JUST The Darkness II.

According to this thread it says something conflicting with FX processors and Win 7 (which you have). Try the second to last post and follow that guy's instructions.

Thing is, 4 of them are already switched off. I don't know why it keeps doing this. :/

What's switched off?

What's switched off?

Locked them. Assuming I worded that right.

Check for new mobo drivers.

(EDIT)
Samo mentioned Drivers so I should mention that all of them are up to date.

I still don't get it, do you mean processors are switched off/locked or what?

[Cariad†]

Yes that. 4 processor cores are locked.

I think he means his processor can't be overclocked

[Cariad†]

I think he means his processor can't be overclocked

No, it can. I just said that I shut off 4 of the cores so only 4 of them are in use.

[Rocket50]

Lol 8 cores. Turn them all on and see how it goes because usually, when you buy a four core processor, they are four good cores, but when you buy eight, it's generally eight shitty cores.

[blαh2355]

What does disabling 4 cores have to do with anything?

[Cariad†]

Nevermind guys. I got it working partially.
