So i have had this problem for a while now.

 

In random time my pc just freezes and there is now errors or kernel info in event manager my quess is its about windows doing something to cause this freeze. And i really mean random times i dont even need to use it to happen it can happe even in sleep mode and lockscreen. 

 

Second option is GPU or motherboard slot it is in PCI slot.

 

Computer does not turn off by is own i have to force shutdown by pressing the power button. When the freeze happens there is no sound and screen picture just freezes.

 

All drivers shoud be up to date.

Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc) and check under Windows Logs > System or Application for any critical errors or warnings around the time of the freeze.

Check this at the freeze time maybe give a clue for you and us

did it again. it happened 16.58 and pc was restarted 16.59 .

critical kernel is the force reset

Common Causes of Kernel Power Error

  1. Power Supply Issues:

    • A failing or underpowered PSU (Power Supply Unit) can cause the system to shut down unexpectedly, particularly during demanding tasks.
    • Ensure your PSU is sufficient for your system's power needs, especially if you've upgraded components like the GPU.

  2. Overheating:

    • If your CPU or GPU is overheating, the system may shut down to protect itself. This can happen if the cooling system is insufficient or clogged with dust.
    • Check temperatures using monitoring software like HWMonitor or Core Temp to ensure components are running within safe temperature ranges.

  3. Driver Issues:

    • Outdated or incompatible drivers, particularly for GPU or chipset, can cause stability issues.
    • Update all drivers, especially for your graphics card, motherboard chipset, and network adapters.
    • Consider using Driver Booster or manually checking for updates from the manufacturer’s websites.

  4. Faulty RAM:

    • Faulty RAM or RAM that is not seated properly can cause system instability, leading to random shutdowns.
    • Run a memory test using Windows Memory Diagnostic or MemTest86 to rule out any RAM issues.

  5. Disk/Storage Issues:

    • If your boot drive or another hard drive is experiencing issues, it could lead to system crashes.
    • Run chkdsk to check for disk errors, or use CrystalDiskInfo to monitor the health of your SSD/HDD.

  6. Windows Power Settings:

    • Some power settings might be triggering the shutdowns or causing issues during sleep/hibernation.
    • Disable fast startup in the Control Panel (Control Panel > Power Options > Choose what the power buttons do > Change settings that are currently unavailable).
    • Set the power plan to High Performance in Power Options and ensure sleep and hibernation are properly configured.

  7. Windows Corruption:

    • Corrupted system files can cause instability and unexpected shutdowns.
    • Run sfc /scannow and DISM to repair any corrupted files:
      • Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run:
        sfc /scannow
      • After it completes, run
        DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

  8. Hardware Faults:

    • It could be a motherboard, GPU, or CPU issue. Run stress tests to check stability:
      • Use Prime95 or IntelBurnTest to stress the CPU.
      • Use FurMark to stress the GPU.
      • Monitor temps and see if they reach unsafe levels during these tests.


        These are common kernel issues, my suggestions are underlined..

Overheating - not this doea it even in idle temps does not go over 30-40 °C

 

Windows Corruption  - have tested this nothin there

 

Hardware Faults  - have stress tested my cpu and gpu works perfecly under heavy load

 

Faulty RAM - run memtest86 all good there 

 

Driver Issues -  all uptodate

 

Power Supply Issues - power supply is good and i dont even need all 850W if its not broke. Some way is should work fine. Thinking going to repair shop to test it.

 

Disk/Storage Issues:  not sure have i tested this will try soon . 

 

Thinking full resetting everything to factory stuff start from 0. Full clear pc and ssd:s

Before freezing starts did you do any change in your PC?
Change any hardware, update any device or BIOS etc.

I think i changed everything expect my gpu and it stared(2-3 years ago). At some point i did something and it stopped like a full 1 year but it stared again dont know why

When you made changes, did you clear pc ( oldest drivers, old hardware driver etc. )

in Eventviewer take the kernel issues ID and search it from microsoft bug forum maybe someone solved it before.

Yes i did do a clear install to my pc when i changet my hardware

 

 

Have done that too many time finding that nothing works for me 😞

I Have been thinking resetting all after my school stuff is done so i can hard reset ssd:s. And install windos.

If thats the case i hope i will get refund on the mouse. Its not cheap one. 

 

I will leave my pc running see if its freezes with all the stuff unplugged and softwares uninstalled

If you have any free drive, take your stuff to drive and then you can try a clear windows installation but this is last choise.
