Windows 10: Lots of Windows 10 crashes all of the sudden, different machines.

Anyone else experiencing this? I'm seeing three different win10 instances crash in the last few days (5 crashes). This is after a round of updates, but I don't know if that's the cause.

Two of these are vbox VMs, which could have its own issues, but the fact that this other machine is crashing and this is after a round of updates makes me wonder if it's some issue with a windows update. The VMs failed with memory access error on the host, but the physical machine has been dying with bluescreens.

I'm investigating but if anyone has any knowledge or advice, I'd appreciate it.

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?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Hmm found a flaw in his list. Jedi Outcast works fine on my machine. But all of a sudden KoTOR 2 and Academy are crashing.
