First steps after a blue screen
Try to remember exactly what you were doing on the PC right before you saw the blue screen. Were you playing a game or just editing a document? Were you viewing a video or were you in the middle of a video conference? The answer can serve as a good indication as to the cause of your blue screen. Note down your last action as best you can. Ideally, you’ll even know which programs were open.
Check the temperature of your PC. If it’s unusually hot, it may not be ventilating properly. This could be because it doesn’t have enough room to sufficiently circulate the air. Contamination, by dust, for example, also has a considerable influence on the temperature of the system and its performance, and so can cause hardware damage. In this case, a blue screen as a “precautionary measure” isn’t out of the ordinary.
Remove any unnecessary hardware such as external hard drives, headphones, cameras, USB drives, etc. Sometimes, blue screens are triggered by faulty devices or device operators. If your PC doesn’t automatically restart, wait a few minutes before you turn it back on manually.
First steps after a successful reboot
If your PC is running again, there are a few strategies that you can use to find the cause of your BSOD.Obtain the information that was displayed on the blue screen. With Windows, you have the option of deactivating the automatic restart of your system so that you have enough time to read the error message displayed in the Windows blue screen. Proceed as follows: right-click on “Computer” (e.g. in Windows Explorer), then “Properties”. This opens a new window with your system information. Go to “Advanced system settings”. Under “Start and restore” you have the option to uncheck the box next to “Perform automatic restart”.
As soon as the blue screen reappears, note down the error message. On Windows 10, this appears at the very bottom of the display. In older versions it’s in the third line from the top. The error message characteristically uses all caps.
If the blue screen won’t appear again for the moment, it’s still advisable to determine its cause to prevent further crashes. Luckily, Windows creates minidump files in the event of system errors, which can be read by certain programs. The free tool BlueScreenView can also reconstruct your most recently displayed blue screens.
With the information that you’ve obtained, you can usually determine the cause via web search. We’ve gathered together the most common error codes for you here.

Thank you for the information! The hard part is it has blue screened when just playing games, just on chrome, nothing open at all, before the computer fully boots, etc it seems very random. And I've gotten errors that point in random directions it's quite odd this has led me to believe it's hardware.

I've had similar issues for about a year with almost exacts BSODs. I've almost few times completely switched to Linux because I don't have any problems there. Only thing we have in common with our builds is Ryzen 5 3600.
Interesting maybe it's my cpu then

Next logical test is a fresh install. Either reinstall windows on your current drive or if you have a secondary drive you can use instead try that. If a fresh install fixes it, it's software, if it still happens it's a hardware issue. With the blue screen errors you're getting and with what you have already tried if it's a hardware problem it will most likely be the motherboard or CPU.
Thanks for you help. I used a different SSD and it bluescreened the moment windows finished installing im waiting to see if it will blue screen again but that prob means its hard ware, could it also be my power supply or is it def either the mobo or cpu? And is there a way to see which one it is or do I have to buy new stuff and try it?

Hey guys im in a bit of a predicament for the past almost two years now my computer has been bluescreening it does this anywhere from once every other day to 1-6 times a day for this reason im afraid to have someone fix it for me because it may take a week just to test because the crashes are so inconsistent making it cost way to much. I feel like ive tried everything and idk what's causing it. Below is some info thanks for any help this is crazy.
When it started: When i updated my PC with a new GPU i got the 3060Ti and a Thermaltake power supply
My Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Fj9Drr
When it crashes: Its very random, However it seems to happen most when I am afk so if i leave the pc overnight it almost always crashes, also if it crashes it usually does so twice so again after restart but not always.
What I have done:
Started with updating all drivers
Then used full uninstallers with the customer support for each hardware then reinstall
Then used public uninstallers (Like DDU) to uninstall all drivers and reinstall
Updated Bios Version to latest
Tried running with different GPU (3060 instead of 3060ti)
Tried MEMTEST86 came back Green for each stick
Tried different Ram
Checked temps on everything and everything is running at decent temperature
Ran Who Crashed and Blue Screen View to see what errors come and they all seem random
Some of the errors ive gotten:
System Service exception
IRQL not less or equal
Kmode Exception not handled
Kernal security check failure
System thread exception not handled
PFN List Corrupt
Memory Management
apc index mismatch
reference by pointer
Kernal quto boost invalid lock release
apc index mismatch
attempted switch from dpc
dpc watchdog violation
some of What Failed:
FLTMGR.SYS
ntoskrnl.exe
win32full.sys
afd.sys
nviddmkm.sys
npfs.SYS
amdppm.sys

Why do you want this drive? Id get the non pro version, you won't need the extra speed. If you want cheaper drives shuck the 8tb external drives
Your gonna be network limited, so drive rpm won't matter
Whats your total budget?
Id probalby just get a cheap/used desktop.
2 hours ago, wall03 said:2 hours ago, Haraikomono said:for a simple home usage scenario, id recommend you to get a consumer grade nas, since everything beyond that you wont really have a use for.
they are pretty cheap, around 100-200€ like a synology 216 or anything like that with 2 bays.
reason for consumer nas: convenience, most of the tools youll need are already there

I'd get a Synology unit personally.
Thank you all so much for the help You guys are great!

There are apps on andriod that let you strem from smb shares.
Do you want to be able to see movies outside of your home?
Id probably get something like this for the extra power if you think you might want plex or simmilar https://www.amazon.com/Synology-Bay-DiskStation-DS220-Diskless/dp/B087ZCBWFH/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=ds220+play&qid=1618616015&sr=8-2
I did want to ability to view and watch all the files outside my home.
So that can handle any movie/music/image viewing apps?
-
Just now, Electronics Wizardy said:
Depends on the phone and how you plan to watch it. Can you phone mount smb shares?
Something like plex normally makes it much easier to watch movies on a phone.
I have a onePlus 7 pro I don't know if its able to do something like that.
How much would be the cheapest nas that can handle that app?
and if I were to get one if I didn't care if it could run plex would you say the linked one is the best cheapest one or is there a better option for non app running ones?
-
Just now, Electronics Wizardy said:
Nope. You can just mount the file share on windows and watch it like any other file
is it the same thing when watching it from a phone?
Sorry to ask so many questions i really appreciate the help!

You can run apps on the nas for things like plex, torrent boxes, pi hole and other uses. Those will need ram, but just as a network share it will be plenty.
Do i need to run plex to watch movies i have saved on my nas?
-

I think you mean 512MB.
yea thats plenty for a basic nas. They really don't need to do much for basic nas use, just move files from a disk to the network. If you want to use other apps you probably want a higher end model.
What do you mean by apps? all i would do is watch movies, listen to music, view images, and upload/download larger files on my phone/computer would this require more?

Yea that should work fine here. Just get 2 drives and your good to go.

This synology blade i linked says it only has 512 GB of ram is that enough to view video/movies/images from the device over the internet on my phone?

Id stay awawy from those as there single drive bay only.
Id just get a basic synology, then software comes included and works well.
Why stay away?
and you think something like this? https://www.amazon.com/Synology-DiskStation-DS220j-Diskless-2-bay/dp/B0855LMP81/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=nas&qid=1618612592&sr=8-3

no, it's not, especially if you have only 1gbps internet.
eBay, usually their like $60 and not very much stuff needs to be done to fix them up. it's harder, but much cheaper.
what should i look up to find something like this?

What model do you have?
Almost all home networks are gigabit max. Wifi is rated with much higher speeds, but its impossible to hit those speeds.
its the NETGEAR Nighthawk AC1900
-
Just now, Electronics Wizardy said:
Im assuming this is over a gigabit network right?
Then your always network limited?
If you want something simple, id just get a premade nas from synology or the like.
If you want diy, id go with a i3 10100, 16gb of ram, unraid, and some cheapish nas drives(or shucked if you want even cheaper.
I dont know what my internet limit is, i have a netgear nighthawk and i think it can do 5 gigabit is that what my network limit is?

old business computers that work perfectly well.
where and how much can you find a old one for, and would it be better than something like this?

Ya i dont know how it works so does it not matter if tis 5400 rpm because of the network or is it still worth it to do 7200 i dont know much about this stuff, and i dont have a budget i just want to know whats the cost to do the things i wanted to for the cheapiest

Hey guys I wanted to make my first home NAS for storing movies, music, games, documents, backups, etc. The very basic stuff I wanted it to have 4TB so I linked below what I think is the best, as far as the actual NAS system what is the cheapest that could do what I want below. Thanks so much for any help!
What I want:
1. Back up large files fairly quickly (why I wanted 7200RPM)
2. View images/videos/files from phone, laptop, computer
3. Reliable, for the backups
4. At least 2 hard drive slots
5. no budget, just as long as it can do those things
HDD I think I want: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084ZV8YW8?tag=5thgeekws-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1&keywords=7200 rpm hard drive
P.S. I know next to nothing about servers and NAS all I know is how to build a computer so any tips are welcome aswell, Thanks again!

I've found these and they seem nice, but they are expensive is this just the cost of quality, or can you find good quality more affordability.

Hey guys so I'm looking to get some in the ear Bluetooth headphones for when I go running/working out, what are the current good ones? I've seen raycon but they seem expensive for what they are. I would also like to hear people without taking them out so if they have that feature that's nice, but I'm fine with open ear ones aswell. I dont really have a budget apart from sub $100 I more so just want to get decent earphones for the cheapiest theres a lot of $20-$40 ones on amazon, those any good? Thanks for any help!
