  1. My company is tossing there old 19in server cabinet, 3 servers, and 2 Apc rack mount UPS's. The UPS's may need new batteries and the servers will need new hard drives ontop of that the I dont have any of the login info for the servers and they would have to be reformatted. is any of this stuff worth keeping?

    The Servers are an HP Proliant DL380p Gen 8 with all the hard drive sleds

    the second server is a dell PowerEdge 2950 

    the third is a dell power edge r410

    With the blue screen error you are getting and the steps you have taken to try alleviate and troubleshoot the issue I'd say it's an issue with your CPU or motherboard for sure, if you have not already, check the socket for any bent pins and reseat the CPU. If you are still having the same problem really the next logical test would be to test a different CPU in the system. If it still does it with a completely different CPU then it's most likely the motherboard. Really you can't get any further without reseating and then replacing the CPU. Depending on when the parts were purchased both the CPU and Motherboard could still be under warranty. 

     

    It could also just be the board, I have ran into similar issues with other versions of the ZX90-A as well as the ZX90-E, both of which I have seen similar issues with either CPU or VGA lights coming on and the system running just fine, according to Asus it's a bug in their firmware which is "fixed" all the time but even after the updates it's still occasionally pops up. While there is the debug LED bug I've seen yours does seem like there is an actual issue.

    This is my fear especially the thought of trying to RMA parts. Also not knowing weather its the MoBo or CPU is a pain in the ass as well because I will have to buy another cpu to test this theory and being custom water cooled it is a pain to swap cpu's. Also when I cleaned the computer out I re-installed the CPU with new thermal paste and everything and there were no bent pins.

    Hi, 

     

    If the CPU Light comes on then I would suggest take the CPU out and put it back in. 

     

    If this does not fix the issue then buy a new CPU. What I would suggest is, If your motherboard supports a 7th gen Intel CPU then get a i3-7th gen CPU from a store like Amazon. The cost of the CPU will be cheap and you can return it after you have used it.

     

    Thanks

    I am at the point that If I'm going to do that I will likely just take the MoBo and CPU out and toss them and buy new. The computer is Custom Watercooled so doing something simple like swapping the CPU is an hour long task.  Also in 15 year of working on computer I have never had a bad intel CPU though this is a decent Idea. 

  4. I have been having issue with a blue screen error That reads Unexpected_Kernal_Mode_Trap, So have spent the better part of a month trying different solutions to fix the Issue.  

    I have done a bios update did not fix the issue

    installed new and old drivers for all components  did not fix the issue

    ran hardware checks on my CPU,GPU, RAM, and drives no faults 

    Replaced my ram and also tested it in different slots no fauts 

    Freshly installed Windows 10 did not fix the issue

    Freshly installed Windows 11 did not fix the issue

    After draining the entire custom loop taking everything out cleaning the system that has been running fine since Aug 2021 and putting it back together I noticed something.

    Every randomly I noticed that the red cpu LED will come on for a split second then turn off and also there in my Corsair ique software it reads that one of the test points on the motherboard is at 127c. I am not sure if its a bug with the software or there is an actual issue with it. The computer still works fine playing games, watching youtube, watching twitch, but as soon as I try to watch a movie or something on Nexflix, Amazon prime video or Disney+ it crashes and it does this in any browser. 

     

    Corsair 5000X case, MSI RTX3080ti GPU, Asus Z590A MoBo, 10900KF CPU, 32GB corsair vengeance RGB 3600mhz DDR4, 2x Samsung 1tb NVME SSD's, 850W EVGA B5 PSU. Custom watercooled.

    Sorry, new to that program I ended up reinstalling windows again but this time via usb unplugged everything except a standard keyboard and mouse and just did the basic updates needed by windows and everything looks to be working. I have not had much time to test the issue. I have a sneaky feeling it has something to do with my Logitech G733 headset though or a sound driver issue. 

    Failed again 😞  Picked up a set of ram online and I am going to try a test with that when I get home. Also I will upgrade to windows 11 with a fresh install just to see if that works. The issue only seems to happen when I’m in a online media player like Amazon prime video, Twitch and even my Test out school program all online. I have tried mem test, Ada 64, and have been playing wow on it plus I ran future mark. In all those instances the computer never crashes.

    I don't know what that is. The mini dump file is extension is .dump located at: C:/Windows/Minidump/

    You can always analyse the mini dump file via WinDbg you can get it from Store app.

    Just type and execute or click on: !analyse

    in the program.

     

    You can also upload it here and someone can check for you.

     

    This is what Microsoft doc says:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/bug-check-0x7f--unexpected-kernel-mode-trap

     

    It suggest bad OC, or faulty hardware.

    Probably try to disable XMP (DOCP for AMD) or boost the RAM voltage a hint (I said a hint), and ensure nothing is OC.

    I set everything back to factory defaults but I will check again to ensure nothing is being overclocked. Thanks for the info

  9. I keep getting an Unexpected_Kernel_Mode_Trap 

    What I have tried to fix it 

    I have completely reinstalled windows

    updated all drivers

    tried different drivers on both windows and Nvidia

    tested my ram and tested to see if it was a bad stick 

    updated the bios though it still shows as a 2021 bios kinda odd 

    Tested both the gpu and CPU for stress 

    various browsers

    and so far nothing has worked 

    This error usually happens when I am watching content online like Amazon Prime video 

    The computer seems to run completely fine in games and other content which makes me scratch my head about the issue.

  10. Just buy a portable hard drive enclose and add your own drive https://www.amazon.com/Reletech-Enclosure-External-Function-Compatible/dp/B08ZN7JXMF/ref=sr_1_2?crid=15UR7ZDSKZQBI&keywords=2.5+incloser+usb+type+c&qid=1646229464&sprefix=2.5+incloser+usb+type+c%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-2

     

    That way if you want to upgrade or use an SSD you can. Also you can swap drives if one becomes full.  Also another benefit is you can pick what ever drive you want to use vs going with what ever eco drive WD or Toshiba put in. They even have ones for NVME drives https://www.amazon.com/SSK-Aluminum-Enclosure-Adapter-External/dp/B07MNFH1PX/ref=sr_1_8?crid=15UR7ZDSKZQBI&keywords=2.5+incloser+usb+type+c&qid=1646229632&sprefix=2.5+incloser+usb+type+c%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-8

    my case and fans has leds attached.

    That's fine as long as you don't have more then 4-5.  here's a break down of how much power your system will use  GTX780  340Watts, CPU  65Watts, Ram 6Watts, HDD's 3Watts, motherboard 40watts and each fan is about 3 watts with RGB.  So with 5 fans and everything listed you are running about 469 watts of power. Most power supply's say there wattage but there actual wattage can fluctuate based on input power, how efficient the PSU is and how clean the power coming in is.  So if its a cheaper or older PSU you may only get 420-450Watts  so you are right at the limit of a 550Watt psu but it should still work just fine. 

  12. Are you sure its your network card and not your router?  I had a similar Issue to this with my router were it would drop out daily, so I purchased a new one and put all my network gear on a UPS and have not lost internet connection ever since.  Also if you think its you network card you can always buy a USB dongle and connect that way they are very cheap and that will help you diagnose your issues.
