  1. Getting Blue Screen errors when playing various games


    I built my PC 4 years ago and hadn't had a problem, until about 4-5 months ago when I started getting BSoDs around once a week to once every two weeks, I have tried a multitude of different solutions to no avail, the errors only happen when I am playing various games i will list a few games that it crashes on and their frequency . Note: It ONLY crashes during games, no other CPU, GPU or Ram intensive processes seem to cause any issuesThe error's I have been getting have been as follows:WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR <--- this one is by far the most commonDPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATIONIRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_E

    Getting BSOD while playing games

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate your effort on this. However, in order to get to the root cause of the issue, please reply with the following details:



    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? To check type:
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit Enter.
    • Does this issue occur only while playing a game?


    Usually, Blue Screen error occurs when there is an outdated driver installed or any in compatible hardware connected to the computer. As you have mentioned that all the drivers are updated, I suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps in the article

    and see if that helps.



    If the issue persists, I would request you to share the minidump file with us so that we can analyze it and help you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps. You can locate mini dump file in location:

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

    Getting Blue Screen errors when playing various games

    Occasional red screen and blue screens when playing various games.

    So, I upgraded my motherboard, power supply, and processor this last week and haven't stopped having issues with it since then. I've tried getting a fresh installation of Windows, that didn't help. I've tried using DDU to remove any conflicting drivers. That still didn't work. To be more specific on what is happening, I crash at random times whilst playing games such as overwatch, tf2, gmod, etc. Sometimes it's a hard red screen crash and sometimes it's a blue screen with the error "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION". I'd really appreciate some help. I play with my friends quite often and don't like leaving them hanging.
