BSOD Hell at Boot

[avogadro602e23]

Built a new system around Christmas, but it has been very unstable,  it was pretty stable for about 2 months, but gotten significantly worse lately past two weeks.   When trying to boot the PC from a cold boot I have to go through about 20 BSOD  error/reboots before it becomes stable.  After it is stable I don't experience any more issues until it is boots shut down (full and/or sleep mode).   Booting from sleep mode used to work much better, but now it is also having issues.    Errors reported by the BSOD  are inconsistent:   get kernal security warning, memory read errors, writing invalid areas,  etc.

 

Another oddity, is on the reboots the system locks up before doing the POST checks, so I have to press the reset button for 5 seconds.  

 

I have not done any overclocking and the System component Configuration is the following,

XFX Radeon RX 580  Driver version 19.3.3
MSI PERFORMANCE GAMING X470 GAMING PLUS   Bios 7B79vA7
G.SKILL Flare X (for AMD) 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400
AMD RYZEN 5 2600 6-Core 3.4 GHz
WD Blue 3D NAND 500GB Internal SSD

 

System is primarly used for light Gaming and light Web Developement.  Unfortunately I do not have any other components to try swapping out and the Dump files haven't been consistent enough to point to a specific component/driver.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Take out one RAM stick and see what happens. If no change, swap them out (make sure you're running it in the right slot). Seems like it could be bad memory.

I believe I found the bad memory stick.  When I put the 2nd stick by itself in, , system would hang on the cold boot, until I pressed reset then it would boot.  didn't get BSOD erros though, short test I know.

 

1st stick by itself worked flawlessly  testing cold boots, sleep, reboots, resets etc.

 

Thanks, for your help
