Windows 10: Disconnecting, restarting, BSOD

Hi,


I have recently encountered a problem related to keyboard/mouse disconnecting.

I was cooking and therefore PC was idle and when I came back, PC was stuck on the BIOS screen, but it wasn’t actually booting, keyboard and mouse were both disconnected.


I chose to ignore this as it was just a one time thing and hasn’t occured again, however, today it happened AGAIN, so I restarted PC. It booted as usual and then while I was playing games, it randomly disconnected everything again and then restarted itself, only to log in and get a memory management BSOD.


I cannot provide Minidump file, as the PC wouldn’t have booted after the BSOD had to restore the system



Any advice, please? I’ve been encountering issues earlier because of the windows update and I uninstalled it, paused the updates and everything was fine until now.

:)

 

Random restarts

when you start the computer up press F8 repeatedly until you get a list of how to start windows, choose do not automatically restart on system failure. if your getting bsod's list what your getting here so we can further help you. IF the system is not getting bsod's and still restarting as you say then i would look into getting a line conditioner for your computer as you might be having power issues.

 

OS drive disconnecting while in use

Okay so my SSD (listed in specs) keeps disconnecting itself while my desktop is in use. What happens is I'll be sitting there and suddenly progams stop working and crashing. Then Task Managerwwon't come up, followed by more programs and background services and then a BSOD.

When it reboots the SSD isn't listed until I disconnect the power and boot it. Works for a bit, then drops again.

Halp plz. I'm missing out on WCG crunching.

 

BSOD- atikmpag.sys

This is most likely due to an installation/upgrade error with ATI driver's. I suggest doing DriveSweeper and the following:

• Drivesweeper all drivers & in Safe Mode
• Unistall all drivers that aren't used in DriveSweeper (CCC Profiler Updates, MSI AfterBurner, anything related to ATI that use's it's drivers.)
• After you do this, the first thing you need to do is go into Device Manager and Unistall your ATI Drivers

Once your done, restart the PC and then try installing the latest drivers.


I had several issues with this in the past, but I overcame it with logical reasoning and whenever I have a driver issue, I just use these steps and I always overcome the problem.

Best of luck! *Toast :toast:
