Computer Freeze and then Restarts. Repeatedly

Hi Guys/Girls.

First off English is not my best language im Afrikaans and from south Africa. I Built my wife a computer that she can use in the office. it was fine for years.

So after doing a Gpu Upgrade and also rebuilding the Pc into a new pretty Pink case with Rgb lights etc. i now face random Freeze followed by restart. no error no Beeps Nothing. Computer can stay Idle for as long as 9 Hours at a time, as long as you don't use it after you touch or move the mouse it will move then freeze followed by restart. then it will repeatedly startup to desktop few seconds then freeze and restart. until it goes to windows Repair screen or manually shutting it down Via Long Power button Press.

Winver Version 1909 Os Build 18363.1198

Things i have Tried.

I Replaced memory with new modules. " Single , Dual And Quad Channel" Problem remained.

I replaced the SSD Drive with a brand New SSD. Problem Persists

I replaced the Power supply with a brand new one. Problem Persists

I replaced the GPU with a New 1060. Problem Persists and now i have 2

i changed CPU with a new 1 . Problem Persist.

I Did Run Dism as well as sfc /scannow and chkdsk /f /r
and note it was a fresh install that started with the issues.

only Physical item i did not replace was Motherboard.

Starting in safe Mode with Networking enabled. then i can use the computer to the max. no freeze no shutdown.

While in safe mode i do all the steps necessary for clean boot. Restarts Persist.

I used the V2 Log collector and attached it in my post.

im a average IT tech that usually identifies and solve my issues fast but this one has me down and out for weeks now.

Please assist and if anything else is required please ask.

Computer not booting to desktop, stuck at Restarting screen

Hi Fred,

Thank you for posting in Community.

The issue might occur if the system is not Shut down properly. As you have already tried restarting the system several times, I suggest you to perform a Power Drain by following the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Turn Off the computer and remove the power cable.
• Long press the Power button for 15-20 seconds.
• Plug in the power cable and switch on the computer.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

 

restart and kernel-power event

Hi,



The kernel power event ID 41 error occurs when the computer is shut down, or it restarts unexpectedly. When a computer that is running Windows starts, a check is performed to determine whether the computer was shut down cleanly. If the computer was not shut
down cleanly, a Kernel Power Event 41 message is generated.



Try this, see if it works for you:

• Go to "Settings"
• Select "System"
• Select "Power and Sleep"
• Select "Additional Power Settings"
• Select "Choose what the power buttons do"
• Select "Change settings currently available"
• Ensure that "Turn on fast start up" is deselected (unticked)
• Click on "Save Changes"

Restart your computer after performing the steps.



Let us know if the above steps resolved the issue.
