Flobbster

My computer keeps crashing after being up for only 10-15 minutes. Before the freeze occurs my SSD is at 100% at almost no load. There is nothing that is working or using the ssd or at least according to the task manager. I bench marked my SSD and it was at 100% during the benchmark and it did not crash. (AD SSD BENCHMARK). All this happened after a windows update and i have reinstalled windows but kept my personal files. And what i need help with is to figure why my computer keeps crashing is it my PSU or my CPU or even my PSU that is causing the failure. The Blue screen error code is CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED. Both my PSU and SSD is about 3-4 years old. SPECS: PSU: Be Quiet PURE POWER L8 630W GPU: GTX 970

HELP what is going here

I think my PSU is failing because my computer is crashing all the Time, my computer is on for 5-8 minuters then it crashes (Critical Process Died is the crash Code) my PSU and SSD is fairly old at 2-3 years old i dont really remember but whats more likely that the PSU or SSD is failing?

Thank you! Big relief haha.

My cpu is at a very high clock rate at almost no load at all is that normal? and how do i fix it?

Got it to work thank you everybody so much. Cannot really identify the issue but now it works.

I have got my card to work but is it only able to run one screen? When i plug in another cord the fans stop spinning and i need to restart the cpomputer to get the card working again. Is it something with the PSU?

I tried with an hdmi cable but it wont work.

I were cleaning it with compressed air. But i will test another pcie slot.

When i start the computer with my dvi cord in the graphics card i wont get a picture on my screen. And the fans on the card is spinning and the light is lighting up aswell. I have not messed with the computer recently but i have cleaned it but i have not removed the graphics card from the Pci slot i have just sprayed dust off cleaner on it. Could the Pci slot be broken or is it something with bios? How do i fix it? I have set the graphics configuration to prefer the PCie slot instead of auto. Either windows or bios can detect the card.

ok thanks

So i have a Steelseries keyboard the keys is black and the character on the key being white, which is the dirty part. Is there any way to get the white fully clean?. Should i try an alcoholic solution or just wet wipes?
