Try to run memtest maybe here take the free version of course. It will start from a usb key (or a cd rom) and check your ram. Sometimes, only a part of your ram is corrupted, hence the randomness of the crashes : the comp doesn't crash until this very part of your ram is actually used by your comp. For instance, once sc2 has crashed do other program crash too? (like your web browser for example) NB : there are prolly other ram testing tools outhere, I linked this one because that's the one I know. | ||

If you make sure to configure "mini-dumps", Windows will write small files with info about the crash to disk when there's a BSOD, and you can look at the info in there with a tool named "BlueScreenView". The tool will show what software was active in the moment the BSOD happened and you can google the file names you see to find out what it is. There might be something else going on and the graphics drivers might be innocent. On windows 7 it would blue screen, on 10 it just straight up freezes the PC and I have to restart manually.

SC2 is the only program that causes this, I play Overwatch/Wolfenstein/Battlefield 4/Pokemon revolution with zero issues. | ||
