Computer s**ting the bed

[CheeseSandwich]

i have what i would consider a mid-tier pc with only a bit of age on it, 2-4 years. i has the specs to run most of my pc games but, as of recently it wish spontaneously crash after running great for the first 5-10 minutes of the game. Sometimes it just freezes both visual and audio wise, but other times it give me a BSOD with the error code WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR.

 

I have reseated all of my components including the mobo and PSU and have had no luck in solving the issue. I have attempted dskchk, adjusting my virtual RAM, my RX580 has the most up-to-date drivers, all of which did nothing either

 

i have no idea what it could be and i dont have alternative parts to switch them out with other than a pretty terrible 1060. What do I do?

We need your actual specs to help you, as well, are all your driver/bios/windows up to date, and what are your temps under load?/

That's usually an error associated with overclocking. Do you have anything overclocked?

Hey there CheeseSandwich!

 

Have you reinstalled Windows 10? My suggestion would be to first try it in safe mode and see what changes can cause the BSOD. I had a BSOD this month that drove me nuts, but for my sake, I made a new bootable USB device with the newest Windows 10 version right off their website. I too tried everything to get rid of the BSOD before installing the OS again. Seemed that the problem was the OS itself. I don't really know if the image from the previous USB got corrupted (yes, I installed Windows twice. Once with the old OS image on the USB Stick, second with the new one) but surprise, the BSOD was gone for some reason. So, you might want to consider this, or repaste the CPU/GPU and check to have a good airflow in the case. Every small thing that might seems too little to count can be the problem to anything, even if it's not related sometimes.

 

Cheers!

WHEN MAKING YOUR POST, ALWAYS:

• Describe the problem you are having in detail but without rambling. If your post is as long as this one, it's too long.
• Include your operating system including version and 32/64 bit.
• Include your entire system specs, including the wattage of your PSU.
• Tell us which BIOS version you have. Some problems can be fixed by updating to the latest BIOS, so check that there are no updates available
• Include any software running when it crashes (if applicable)
• Give full details of any error messages and screenshots if possible
• Use an informative title briefly describing the error. It's not helpful to see a thread titled "please help" or "Urgent" because most people are better at some problems than others, so may not prioritize your issue, and some people will ignore you completely.

Without these details, we may not be able to help you. To speed up the process, please ensure you have all the details on your post

Well then you should probably check....

 

and temps...

 

and specs...

 

We can't solve a math problem without the numbers.
