Windows 10: critical level error, Kernal Power. Event ID 41.

Hello,


I recently installed a new GPU and Power supply to my PC and everything was working fine but I felt like I had some malware so I formated my PC through the Windows 10 recovery options. However, after installing everything like steam, discord nvidia gforce and some games. When I start a game I get huge fps lag and even sometimes my PC freezes and crashes. After researching online I found the event viewer I saw that there was a Critical error.


My specs are:

Gpu: GTX 1660 super

Cpu: Intel i5 7400

Memory: HyperX 8gb Ram

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B250M-DS3H


The Error:

Kernel-Power event id 41. BugcheckCode 0

Hello,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

In-order to get more clarity on this issue and to assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, reply with answers to the below questions:

1. Are you aware of any changes made on your PC, prior to this issue?
   
2. Is this issue specific while playing a particular game?
   
3. Which edition of Windows are you currently using?
   

A Kernel Power Event 41 can occur in the following scenarios.

Scenario 1: The computer restarts, and there is a Stop error BugcheckCode in the event data.

Scenario 2: The computer is shut down by pressing and holding the power button.

Scenario 3: The system randomly restarts and no Stop error BugcheckCode is listed, or the computer is completely unresponsive (hard hang).

I suggest you refer the article on Kernel
Power Event ID 41 and follow the steps for the scenario that is causing this error on your PC.

Additionally, you can refer the article on Windows
Kernel event ID 41 error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first" in Windows
and check if that helps.

BSOD since 23/07, Critical Error Kernel Power- event ID 41

Zbook,

Thankyou very much for your reply. In relation to your first post, I have carried out steps 10-22 (apart from step 15, I will attempt to leave it running with this tonight). The screenshots are attached. I have also uninstalled the programmes detailed above. Unfortunately, as my laptop is a custom built from PCSpecialist, they do not provide BIOS updates anywhere easily accessible. I will phoen them today and see if there are any updates.

Kind Regards
Ash
