about 20% of the time, when I turn on my PC the BIOS code on the motherboard says 40 and it blue screens as soon as I log in. The other 80% of the time its fine

 

what does this mean? I checked the manual and it doesnt say anything about the codes

check the erp-state in BIOS. Turn the EPU off

That has smt to do with power saving mode.
