    Starmade has caused me BSODs in the past few days, usually while playing Starmade and browsing Youtube. When it crashes it points to akidmag.sys (or dll, didn't get a clear view the past few times) which is the AMD driver for my card, which is a AMD R7 200. Any help?

    BSOD is usually conflicting hardware or drivers, not the software itself. Have you changed a piece of your computer or updated/installed drivers recently?

    very unlikely that a bluscreen crash is caused solely by a java application going overboard in my experiance.
    can you supply more information maybe ?
    Driver versions for example. Or maybe watch GPU/CPU with tools like cpu-Z Gpu-z for heat problems ?

    Sounds like an unstable driver to me. Like others have said, we need more info.

    Heat is fine-If it were overheating i would more than know it. Currently using the latest AMD drivers and everything that effects Starmade or Java is up to date.
