A corrupt game file, eh? Stop formatting your drive, nothing wrong with your OS. The game files are bad, plain and simple. Find a better source.

BSOD? What is the error code?

It is possible that data is not being properly written to your harddrive and that you may want to run a diagnostic on it by booting to CD with Ultimate Boot CD v3.4 and running the appropriate tool depending on which brand your HD is.

Good luck!

what does that program do?

a diagnostic of my hardware or OS?

Always try googling the error number before posting stuff too.

It is not one program, it is a collection of extremely useful utilities all free.

0x0000008E: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

(Click to consult the online MSDN article.)

A kernel mode program generated an exception which the error handler didn’t catch. These are nearly always hardware compatibility issues (which sometimes means a driver issue or a need for a BIOS upgrade).

Upgrade your BIOS if necessary, and just go to the UBCD homepage to review the utilities it contains.
