Ever since last now after I purchased and downloaded H1Z1 I played for a good 5 hours before my computer random rebooted. It came back on SUPER slow took maybe 10 - 15 minutes to become useable as everything too a really long time to load up properly. I thought maybe it was some kind of update that force rebooted and kept playing, maybe a hour later it happened again, and again, and again... Each time I tried to check Bluescreenview, Whocrashed, Eventviewer, etc but nothing seemed to be wrong in those locations. i play similar high caliber games like Rust for up to 8 hours a day a few days out of the week without any issue. I ran Prime95, FurMark, and OCCT to check my cpu and gpu and they both did fine. I'm thinking it could possibly be corrupted hardrive or H1Z1 itself but just a couple of hours ago while I was away from PC it rebooted again with the following errors:

 

Error Eventlog
Error Kernel-Processor-Power (Event 35)
Error Kernel-Processor-Power (Event 35)
Error Kernel-Processor-Power (Event 35)
Error Kernel-Processor-Power (Event 35)
Error DistributedCOM
Error DistributedCOM
Error DistributedCOM

 

Any ideas? i can provide as much info as possible.

 

Windows 10

i5 4670k (Not Overclocked currently)
EVGA 760 (Drivers up to date)
16 GB RAM
EVGA 750W Gold Modular
WD 300GB HDD (Really old, on it's last leg. Replacing with SSD tomorrow)

me thinks the last leg of your hdd finally broke. probably hit the end of its rewrite cycle lifespan.

Do you think when I get my SSD tomorrow and I clone my HDD to my SSD the fact the HDD is broken it'll effect the cloning process?

Also do you think you can explain what the end of its rewrite cycle would make the PC reboot while playing something like H1Z1 but not other games or processes?

 

I do remember doing a test after a reboot and I'm not sure which one but one of the means were 1 and the minimum or maximum was 5 and it was in red which appeared to be some kind of issue. I wish I would of documented that but I thought of it as an oversight.
Here's a link to what I mean, http://prnt.sc/d4z7yg

I don't know the details of how they work but hdd's can only write and rewrite the disk so many times. think of it like a pencil and paper, if you keep writing and erasing, eventually you're going to run out of eraser. perhaps you just ran out of eraser on h1z1. and to answer your earlier question, I don't know but I would do a fresh install to eliminate any possible variables there.

Issue fresh installing I have about 300 kb/s. It would take me probably a couple weeks no exaggeration to download everything. I can't have it download 24/7 due to other people using the internet and myself having personal need using the internet.

Hopefully your drive does not die when you are cloning because that would suck. How long have you had the drive?

Well sadly a bout a year ago my SSD and HDD drived because I didn't swap out powersupply cables when I installed a new PSU (I wasn't thinking.) So the current HDD I have is from a friends computer. It was a computer he wasn't using anymore and the computer itself look like it had gone through hell in back, very dusty, broken bits of case, parts thrown around. I'm not sure how old it is all i know is I had to reformat it and fresh install on it and from the get go it was very loud and VERY slow. I'm guessing it's 3 if not 5 years old. I'm sure if I open up my pc I can read the HDD label to find some kind of date which I'll do when the SSD arrives.

Nice!

At 93%, hoping it works. Will update when it's done!

 

Also before the SSD got here I played some League of Legends games with no issues. I've uninstalled H1Z1 prior to cloning just incase it was corrupt from the HDD. We shall see.

Clone Complete!

Everything appears to have gone well with the clone, I'll need to redownload H1Z1 to see if that issue is fixed now but I might not have results for that until tomorrow.

This SSD is quite fast I would recommend it seeing it might still be on sale.

Update.

Redownloaded H1Z1, played about 40 minutes before computer rebooted again.

Luckily the ocmputer boots faster because of SSD now but not sure of the issue...

Maybe its just the game?! Have you tried updating gpu drivers?

I went ahead and did some searching about H1Z1 and computers rebooting. It seems to be a somewhat common problem with quite a few people talking about it but nothing recent. Only one of them had a solution other than saying "Your PSU is broken." "You're overheating." etc.

 

It said to turn off Fast Startup. http://prntscr.com/d5ks24
I haven't tested yet but I've also updated my drivers even though they were only one update behind.

Update: I just got off phone with EVGA support (Manufacturers of my PSU.) After telling him my voltages and fluctuation of my voltages he said the it was quite high and the fluctuation is at a danger level. So they are sending me a replacement in 1 - 3 business days before I even send in mine. FeelsGoodMan

youre the first time ive ever heard of a supernova psu over 550w going bad. that's some bad luck brian if ive ever seen it.

This is actually a replaced psu already lol.

This will be the 2nd RMA but the first time they just repaired it and sent it back. This time they are sending an entire new psu.
