Bsod problems
Comments
-
Depends on what the noise is. If it's a gurgle from an AIO cooler, no, that's typical.
Basically the point of doing this is to see if the problem changes. Whether it gets worse or better, either would tell us something.
-
@TSMikeW so do I leave the xmp profile as profile 1 or auto?

You'll need to establish a pattern here. Keep track of how often it happens, if it's more severe than last time. The next step would be trying to isolate it to a specific stick.
-
@TSMikeW today i only got 1 bsod but u couldn’t catch what failed.
-
Try running this: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluescreenview.zip
It'll show all your crash dumps and you can post a screenshot here. This being so rare will make it harder to diagnose. Even running Memtest86, if you're only getting a crash per day, you'd have to loop it for 24 hours to catch the error.
-
@TSMikeW I tried downloading bluescreenview but every time I get a bsod
-
Your PC can run for a whole day without a crash, but if you go online and download this file, you get a BSOD? When does it happen exactly?
-
@TSMikeW this happens when I try to open google or bing. I even tried safe mode with networking and it somehow crashed. Or is there a link that can just send me there immediately, because I noticed that it takes around 5 min to crash as soon as launch google.
-
@TSMikeW I tried looking up what these bsod mean and they all talk about either driver or memory.
-
You're probably going to find they're just random, which does point towards hardware. I'd keep looking at RAM. I'd either download memtest86 and run that, or I'd pull out one stick of RAM and test the sticks individually. See if you can prove one is faulty.
-
@TSMikeW I already tried memtest 86. I will try to remove one by one.
-
You got through four passes on Memtest with no errors on a problem that happens pretty consistently, 5 minutes after opening Chrome? If that's the case, we'll look elsewhere. Can you download bluescreenview on another PC to be able to run it and show us what crash dumps exist?
-
@TSMikeW Is there a direct link to download it because when I tried to download it I had to find the website then find right one to download and once I clicked download it would crash.
-
The link I gave you should be direct: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluescreenview.zip
It should start the download as soon as you open it.
-
@TSMikeW thank you so much. So I just go on with my day until I get a bsod?
-
correct, we need to see if there are other common factors, so just make note of when it crashes and compare it to previously to see if its better or worse.
-
@TSMikeW So do I extract the folders or not? I tried to open it but it says I need to extract the folders.
-
@TSKyleH these are the minidumps and my pc didn’t bsod today.
-
Random BSOD's, certainly indicates instability. I'd like to verify the nature of the issue. is it that either you BSOD right on startup or shortly after starting up and otherwise it'll run all day?
-
@TSMikeW I get these bsod anytime. When I’m launching a game or when I start up my pc. Also when I go on chrome.
-
Do you have another SSD you could install an OS on and see if the problem still occurs? That'll rule out the driver and the OS(Unlikely).
-
@TSMikeW unfortunately I do not.
-
-
Doesn't leave us many options to narrow it down. What were you results when running on a single stick of RAM?
-
@TSMikeW Both ram worked and I didn’t get any bsod.
-
We can deduce from that, that the memory is the involved, but not directly at fault. It seems to only happen when the RAM is running in dual channel mode. Lets try this, you're on BIOS P4.20 AGESA 1.0.0.6. I'd suggest you update to P5.0 with the latest AGESA 1.2.0.2 firmware. Load your XMP profile again as we did before and lets see what effect that has.
-
@TSMikeW how do I update to P5.0? Also is the XMP profile the one that says: XMP profile 1?
-
@TSMikeW do you think it would be worth it to buy an m.2 ssd?
