So I need help figuring out what's wrong with my PC.

post-72909-0-52179300-1426506847_thumb.j

 

My system work perfectly fine except I get this blue screen of death at very random times ranging from 1 to 3 times a day. It just happens out of nowhere!

I haven't added any new hardware and the only new software I added was speedfan and minecraft.

 

I did, however, water cool my system for the first time. I'm guessing I must have damaged something during the process, but it is so hard to discern what I damaged because my system works perfectly fine not counting the rare blue screens.

 

Can somebody please help me out? I will forever me in your debt!

try reinstalling windows

:)

That solves software problems. I highly doubt this is a software problem.

Well that narrows it down at least. Have you just been living with the BSoD's? I have a feeling it's sata 3 sockets on my mobo that are damaged. I might have to get a new mobo..
