I am getting frequent BSOD's. I recently installed two UHD monitors and I am running them off a super old GPU, a Sapphire HD7850 from 2012. Can someone help me figure out if this is definitively a GPU problem or something else?

It will not let me upload the two files mentioned in the error message due to unsupported file types. If they are needed, perhaps I can host the files.

Here is the error message:

All signs point to driver issues, when I did a search. Maybe try reinstalling your video drivers?

Is this on Windows 10?

Win 7. I never got around to upgrading when it was free.

As to the drivers. I have not installed any new drivers, but I have not updated drivers in a long time either. I have not had any issues until now, so I haven't updated them.

Well, maybe that should be step one. Your video drivers may be having a problem with 2x UHD displays.
