Windows 10: Often Bluescreens, no clue why.

Hello, I've been having many blue screens recently when playing games and I don't know why. Windows Memory Diagnostic tells me I'm fine, memtest86 says I'm fine, performance monitor says my computer passes. I've looked at my drivers many times and it says I'm up to date, I'm on the newest version of Windows 10. Below is the "WhoCrashed" results.

bluescreen

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community.

I understand that it can be frustrating for you when the computer shows bluescreen errors. Bluescreen errors are usually caused due to faulty hardware or drivers. We will try to narrow down the cause of the issue by performing a few steps.

1. Do you get bluescreen errors randomly or while performing any specific actions such as playing a game or running any particular application?
   
2. Do you see any error code along with the message “DRIVERS POWER STATE FAILURE”?
   
3. Are there any external devices connected to your computer?
   

The usual causes for bluescreen errors are Graphic card drivers and Network adapter drivers. We can go ahead and try to update the drivers.

Refer the article Update drivers in Windows 10 on how to update Graphic card
and Network drivers.

You may also refer the article Troubleshoot blue screen errors
for additional troubleshooting steps to fix the issue.

You can reply to this post if you need further assistance

Hope it helps.

Bluescreens, on top of bluescreens.

When I built my PC back in 2016, I began to blue screen not short afterwards. I thought it would solve itself, but no. It crashes at random times of the day, and has no correlation with what I am doing. I could be staring at my desktop and my PC would bluescreen.
My temperatures are fine when gaming, and overclocking had nothing to do with it considering that it bluescreened before I overclocked. I'm stuck and really have no clue as to what I should do next, considering I've looked at registry errors, driver issues,
updates, etc.

If I need to post anything like specs or windows logs, let me know. From memory I know a few bluescreens I got were:

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

From memory I believe a few filetypes that the bluescreen listed were:

tcpip.sys

usbaudio.sys

fltmgr.sys

If anyone has any insight to this, it would be much appreciated.
