    Hello everyone

    My alienware M15x keeps giving me bluescreens and i thought someone mught know how to solve the issue.

    The sys file that crashes is atikmpag.sys
    And usually how it happens is, when i take the power cord off from the laptop and close the lid and then when i open the lid, the display driver tries to restart copule of times and then crashes to bluescreen.

    Im running M15x Q720
    8GB RAM
    Ati radeon HD5850

    I have tried switching the versions of the driver and it does not seem to help
    Currently im running ATI Catalyst version 2010.0810.2122.36491

    So if anyone has had similar problems or knows what to do

    Please help!
