@Starscream195 Some power supplies are more reliable then others and some do NOT supply enough power on the +12V for the video card. Others have two +12 rails that only supply so many amps per rail. I have seen power supplies with dual rails hooked up with too big a load on one rail. This could cause the voltage regulators to fail and then heal. I have seen power supplies boost specs for other values to maintain the wattage figure. It could be the cooling fan can't handle the heat when the power supply is under full load. Not all power supplies are created equal. Memory modules can and do go bad. Random and infrequent crashes are hard to diagnose. There are others errors in the dxdiag that does not eliminate a hardware issue.The hardware looks to be good but... Have you checked to see if there are any Windows updates? Maybe running a test program like 3dmark (there is a free version) a few times and see if that runs error free.
@roberta591 My PC is always up to date. There are no new updates for it as of posting this comment. As for the benchmark, I'll post the results.

@Starscream195 The results are good. What I look for is I run the several times to see how the graphics card works. Running it 2 or 3 times shoould should fail IF there is an issue. I would take the mods out and start a new game and see how long you can play and/or if you get a crash.
