Windows 10: lots of BSOD crashes, while gaming and then also while doing virtually nothing in windows...

getting lots of BSOD crashes during gaming, then also randomly during regular usage of Windows 10. i have several minidump files, which i made an attempt at analyzing via Windbg, but I do not fully understand what the results are telling me. the common errors i am seeing from these minidumps and Event Viewer message/errors typically refer back to one of the following: Memory_Management issues BSOD Code 1a, driver issues BSOD Code 50, "windows has rebooted from a bugcheck" something to do with Windows Defender i think?, or some type of Kernel Power issues, but i've also seen a "BTHUSB" er

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

 

all games crash!

ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.

 

Windows LiveKernelEvent 141, Game Crashes and BSOD

Hello,

I am having a recent problem with my PC only when playing/having games open where my PC will randomly either BSOD or the game will crash to desktop. Most of the hardware is just over 2 years old, with the most recent change being a 3060 Ti I got just over 1 year ago. In a lot of the games that crashes, I often would see multiple crashes within a short amount of time, usually at least 2 or 3 in an hour. NOTE- I do not run any overclocks at all. UEFI Settings are all DEFAULT

When viewing the reliability history, I see a Hardware Error with the event name of LiveKernelEvent Code 141. Here are my system specs and the list of troubleshooting steps I have taken so far:

• MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge WiFi motherboard with BIOS 7C37v1F
  
• AMD Ryzen 5600X CPU with Noctua NH-U12S cooler
  
• 16GB of Corsair 3200Mhz RAM
  
• EVGA RTX 3060 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming GPU
  
• Samsung 980 Pro 2TB SSD
  
• Samsung 960 Evo 512GB SSD
  
• Samsung 860 Evo 512GB SSD
  
• Corsair CX-M 650W 80+ Bronze PSU
  
• Windows 10 Home, latest build
  

Troubleshooting Steps:

1. cleaned PC
   
2. reseated all components in slots
   
3. verified integrity of game files in Steam- no issues
   
4. verified integrity of Windows installation using SFC /scannow - no issues
   
5. checked disk health and other diagnostic measures- all checked out fine
   
6. uninstalled and reinstalled problem games
   
7. uninstalled GPU drivers and reinstalled with DDU for a clean install
   
8. uninstalled GPU drivers and reinstalled OLDER, KNOWN STABLE GPU drivers
   
9. monitored CPU and GPU temps through all of this and all were WELL within limits
   
10. ran stress testing tools such as MEMTEST, FurMark, etc.- no issues at all
    

With no fix on this PC and originally suspecting my GPU since that's what most troubleshooting steps said online, I asked a friend who had a similar PC to swap his GPU. Here are the specs of HIS PC and the corresponding troubleshooting steps:

• MSI MPG X570 Gaming Edge WiFi motherboard with BIOS 7C37v1F
  
• AMD Ryzen 5800X CPU with Noctua NH-U12S cooler
  
• 32GB of Corsair 3600Mhz RAM
  
• EVGA RTX 3060 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming GPU
  
• WD SN850 1TB SSD
  
• EVGA SuperNOVA 850W 80+ Gold PSU
  
• Windows 10 Home, latest build
  

I swapped out my 3060 Ti with HIS 3060 Ti into MY system with no other changes and played the same games that would crash for several hours with no crashes. I put my GPU back into my system and the first game I tried running, I crashed within 15 minutes. I RMA'ed the GPU but alas the new one I got is running into the same issues.

As I am unable to interpret crash logs, I need some assistance in determining what piece of hardware needs replacing. At this time I'm confident it is not the GPU itself that is the issue as a result of the steps above. I don't believe it is the RAM or CPU either based on the testing, I am assuming its definitely hardware based on the number of times I've reinstalled software and OS, and the reading I've done on the Code 141.

Here's a link to the dump files I uploaded onto my OneDrive: OneDrive

Edit: As of posting this, I am heading/will be heading to purchase a new surge protector, a wall outlet tester, and a Corsair RMx 850W 80+ Gold PSU as options for more testing.

Thank you.
