Hello, I am long time LTT fan but a first time poster. Watching guys like Linus and Jay I was inspired to build my own custom PC a little less than two years ago. I'll explain up front that while I'm comfortable with the hardware, when it comes to digging in the guts of my OS I'm a total n00b so please bear with me. Anyway, several months ago my PC started to develop this extremely irritating problem. I do not usually turn off my PC or even put it into sleep mode when I'm not using it. I leave it on literally months at a time only restarting it when I update Windows or Drivers. Anyway, one day I decided I really do care about the planet so I started turning my PC off when I went to bed, and that's when it started. Anytime I booted my PC from there it'd boot up just fine, it'd go to the lock screen just fine, but when I'd log in it would BSOD within 30 seconds to a minute. This will happen continuously as the computer restarts itself, spitting out any number of error codes from something something IRQL to Memory Management Errors. Eventually the PC will reach what I call the "Island of Stability" where it'll boot up fine and have zero stability issues until whenever I decide to turn off or restart my PC and it starts the whole cycle over again. When the computer is stable, I'll run Memory Diagnostic but it detects no errors. When it is being unstable, I've been able to boot it into SafeMode and run Memory Diagnostic and then it WILL detect errors but the program almost always locks up before it can give me a report. Can you see how this might be confusing to a n00b like me? Anyway, I became convinced that my DIMMs were going bad so I popped them out, cleaned the contacts really really well and plugged them back into the OTHER ram slots on the board. Then I performed a clean install of Windows because I had corrupted system files. This seemed to help for awhile but it's doing the same old BS again. I ran Performance Monitoring to prepare to post this thread (something I'd never done before) and it's saying something about a "Dirty Disk" and to run chkdsk /f but I don't have a drive F, at least not anymore. I used to have a 1tb HD in there but I took it out when I removed the harddrive cages. Could that be causing the issue? If I seem like I'm all over the place here it's only because I have almost no idea wtf I'm doing. Below I'll provide my specs and a link to PERFMON and Sysnative Reports as per Forum rules (I think I've got everything required here). I should also note that the most recent bought of instability came after rebooting after updating firmware for my SSD and reinstalling that stupid Corsair Utility Engine for my mouse.
