    PC Freezes, blue screens for a second, then resets like nothing happened


    I have recently built a PC and the only problem I have is its start up. I click on an application, the screen freezes for 5 seconds, blue screens then restarts like nothing happened. Everything is new out of the box and i’ve reseated everything possible. This happens every time I boot up my PC, can someone please help?

    Computer Freezes Then Blue Screen

    Hello,

    A stop error (also called a "blue screen" error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. These errors can be caused by both hardware and software issues.

    For us to better assist you, we'd like to know the following:

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    • Click OK.
    • Were there any recent changes made prior to this issue?
    • What is the make and model of your device?

    Meanwhile, we suggest performing the steps on this article
    on how to troubleshoot blue screen errors on Windows 10.

    We look forward to your response.

    Regards.

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    PC Freezes, blue screens for a second, then resets like nothing happened

    Laptop freezes, goes to blue screen error screen, then restarts

    Hello, this problem has been happening for months, it happens on some days but doesn't on other days, when I am on my laptop and this problem occurs, firstly the screen freezes, for about 15 seconds, then it transfers to a blue screen saying that my PC ran into a problem and needs to reset. It then resets, I log back in and about 30 seconds-5 minutes it does the same thing again, what can I do to prevent the screen to freeze, restart then loop? Or atleast calm it down a little bit.

    It takes about a day for it to be normal again.
