PC crashing when downloading or idle

ralvix99

My PC is crashing when I am downloading or even browsing the web. The PC also has never crashed while a game is running and being played. The activity with the highest crash rate is when I download something large like a game while also having multiple programs running.

I just want to figure what is causing this.

The crash looks like this:


I tried:

- Reinstalling Windows 10/drivers

- Flashing the BIOS

- Swapped every hardware component one by one to test (PC still crashed when replaced with new/different components)

 

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x

GPU: Gigabyte NVIDIA RTX 3060ti

RAM: 16GB 3600MHz

Storage: WD Black M.2 SSD 1 TB

Motherboard: B550 Aorus Elite AX V2

Power Supply: Corsair 650W 80+ Gold

OS: Windows 10 Pro

It appears to be software that hanging and as such hanging the os. When you did your diagnostics did you freshen up the os or has it been the same software the whole time

Hey emosun,

Thanks for the reply. 
I downloaded two different instances of Windows 10 Pro from Microsoft onto a USB flash drive.

(I formatted and cleared the drive before second download)

The first download had the same issue.
