Bad system config

[orlando690]

I5 8400

Z370 a pro

Gtx 1060 3gig

8gigs 2400 ddr4

SK hynix 250 gig

Windows 10

Just finished building it with firmware and updates and software I need. 

 

I have seen this for the second time now, Both when I restart my pc. Can anyone tell me what I got here? 

Both times after some time off the system turns on like normal. 

Also my start menu (pin to start) does not stay put, it keeps disappearing.

I would try loading your drivers for everything onto a USB flashdrive and installing them onto the computer. Sometimes an out of date driver on something random like the wifi card can cause that message. If that dosen't work, Test your hardware in another computer. It may be your ram, cpu, power supply, or even the motherboard. 

 

Overclocking might cause this problem. If you have overclocked anything, try running it at the base clock to see if that fixes the error code.

Are you using 1 stick of RAM or two?

Ive done tests before encountering this problem. It didnt start until i downloaded my ssd driver and restarted.

memtest86

P95 test

dont know how to test ssd i got something from the manufacturer that said it was n good status. mentioned S.M.A.R.T..

did not test the graphics, im guessing thats fur mark?

Don't use furmark. 

It's way too aggressive for testing a card meant for gaming.

Go with 3dmark firestrike or timespy test or unigene superposition.

Those are all good.

 

I would suggest using Aida64 over Prime95 as well. That is also way too aggressive.

I'm not seeing any compatibility issues with your hardware..

though you didn't list everything like your power supply.

 

I second what others were saying about how this could be a bad driver or something.

If I were you, I'd do a clean windows install and then very carefully make sure you download the right drivers making sure they're both 64 bit and for your version of windows.

Also going by the model number and revision number for each product rather than just the name as a lot of parts are named very similarly and that can screw you up.

Also, don't download and install anything you don't actually need like random utilities that aren't actually required.

Just the drivers you need and that's it.

Rosewill 450 watt. 

 

I actually did a clean install, and was careful about the drivers I installed yesterday after a lot of failed attempts at fixing it. The only way to get this error to happen is to restart, which I have not been doing since I clean installed windows. 

I'll update post if it happens again. 

 

Also, someone told me it could be a bios issue, to check event viewer to see if and when an error appears; If nothing there it happened before windows on bios.

Try clearing the CMOS and if that doesn't work, maybe update the bios but CAREFULLY!  Only do that on a nice day where the weather is good as if something goes wrong, your motherboard will end up a paperweight.

 

To clear the CMOS, take out that little watch battery on the motherboard with the system shut down and unplugged, wait a couple of minutes and put it back in. This will reset everything back to defaults.
