    I've gotten these two errors on my Windows 8 laptop (I got one other one too but I can't remember what it was). They always cause me to get the BSOD. Anyone know what might be going on? Machine is relatively new (~1 month). I've gotten a BSOD of death twice now from these errors while playing Insurgency. It's happened while doing other stuff as well but in recent memory it was always when I was playing Insurgency. These problems don't seem to happen when I'm not playing games (knock on wood).
