I have been getting multiple seemingly random BSODs on booting up my new build pc over the last 2-3 weeks. This happens almost every time I boot the pc up. There are different error messages every so often, the most recent being KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED NTFS.sys failed, fltrmgr.sys etc. Very strangely once it manages to boot and get into windows, it never crashes again and restarting or turning it off/on again does not reproduce the issue. It only returns once I switch the PC off for a few hours e.g. overnight and the next time I switch it back on, all the issues return. I'm completely at a loss as to what the issue is - whether it's my RAM, mobo, CPU or something else.

 

I've included the links to the perfmon report and the most recent minidump here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/vhib6538bt75oik/BSOD2609.rar?dl=0

 

My PC specs are here: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/f2iGCV4U74hBCVMzAjGJeMd

 

What I have done

 

1. SFC and the memory diagnostics tool - neither have revealed any issues. Windows is up to date and nothing indicates that any of the drivers are outdated. I also did a clean reinstall of windows hoping it would fix the issue but it has not.

 

2. Someone suggested running driver verifier which I did and encountered 2 BSODs. The minidump is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6eo2y4p3h4gngoo/minidump.zip?dl=0

 

3. Having looked at the minidump, it was thought this was a memory corruption issue so I was advised to run memtest and actually encountered 2 further BSOD:- report here https://www.dropbox.com/s/7ardlqyxulmi600/MemTest86-Report-20180919-143915.html?dl=0

 

4. Since then I have tried booting the PC with 1 stick of RAM at a time, alternating between the DIMM slots (#2 and #4 in my case), and the BSODs still remain seemingly random like before. I've ran memtest again on these different setups but haven't caught any errors since.

 

Sorry for the long post but I'm totally confused as to what is happening so any help would be greatly appreciated. At this time, I encountered another BSOD this morning but since then PC is working fine and I'm posting this from it. 

 

Thanks in advance!

look in the manual for the motherbaord. does it say anything about memory needing to be installed into specific slots?

 

do you have an overclock enabled on the memory (this includes XMP)?

 

have you overclocked anything else in the system?

Manual doesn't say anything about specific slots. I have paired slots on my motherboard #1, #3 and #2, #4 (which I am using). I haven't overclocked anything on the system and XMP is off - I have taken a snapshot of it here:- https://www.dropbox.com/s/jsitildq3c3r3tf/bios.jpg?dl=0

 

Any ideas? Could it possibly be a hardware issue?

i'm not going to click on random dropbox links, sorry.

 

try using slots 1 and 3 then. most motherboards i've used work best if ram is in slot 1.

tried that already. the BSOD posting instruction requests posts with dropbox links but thanks for your input anyway.
