Blue Screen

[wassup]

So I was playing CSGO today when I noticed that my game was freezing very often. After only a couple of minutes, my pc had a blue screen and restarted. I have already made a post on my lag issues, and I was told to use Spybot and Malwarebytes to scan anything and the remove it. This had solved the problem temporarily, but now with this blue screen, I'm afraid to play any games. I have a GT 970 and 4th gen core i5. there shouldn't be any reason in my mind for those pieces to just get destroyed while playing CSGO. My pc restarted after the blue screen and I'm currently using it to type this. I would appreciate some help. (Keep I mind I might not answer within 1 second, becaus eapparently some ppl here get mad if you don't)

I got time. It's a forum not a phone call .. lol...

 

Blue screens happen from 2 things.

Memory errors 

Bad drivers/hardware

 

What do the error logs say?

Okay, so right now it says that the computer was forcibly rebooted because of a bug check, and this is the number they gave me: 0x00000154. then I got and event 41 or something like that. i don't understand too much about software, so idk what these are

Event 41 means powered down suddenly from loss of power. 

 

First thing I'd try is a Fresh windows install on a sperate drive. Unplug the drives you're using now to elimate a drive conflict if there was to be such a thing (cause we really don't know yet) 

The new OS and drive (or used good working drive) will help eliminate possible driver or old software errors and can then try and narrow down the hardware from here.

would a USB drive work?

As long as it's big enough for W10 and it's a bootable drive, yeah sure. Prefer it on the Sata or M.2 to simulate what you're currently running your OS now though. But yeah, it's a start.

So I haven't gotten to booting windows on another drive, since I don't have any one me, but when I went to play minecraft with a friend, which should be a fairly light game, my pc got the blue screen again. This issue appears to only happen when I'm playing games. There is also this thing where CPU usage goes up to like 100% no matter what the game is.

It also says this as a warning "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID " over and over again
