    PC Crash Troubleshooting - WHEA ID 46


    Hello,My computer has been crashing after 3-5 minutes of heavy load. I've only seen this happen when running video games.I let this happen twice to see if the Windows event logs would show what was going wrong. I uploaded the .dmp crash files to this Dropbox folder to share more information: .DMP FilesI saw WHEA event ID 46 for memory issues, and ran through two cycles of memtest86 without any errors.Does anyone have any recommendations or troubleshooting steps I should try? I'm not sure if I'm missing anything in the crash sump files, or what to try next.Thank you!

    :)

    Hi!

    Recently i've changed the motherboard, CPU and RAM on my PC, after which, my computer has been randomly giving me the BSOD when playing games, when checking Event id for the cause of the crash the following error is produced with event id 46:

    A fatal hardware error has occurred.

    Component: Memory

    Error Source: Machine Check Exception

    The details view of this entry contains further information.

    the following Minidump file was produced following the crash: 022624-7000-01.zip
    anyone has any idea whats causing the crash? i've tried checking the cooling systems and everything works fine, and i've changed the RAM but the crashes still happen.

    BSOD - WHEA Logger Event 46

    Hello,

    I have been having issues with a newly built PC where I get a BSOD whenever doing anything intensive. Temperatures don't appear to be getting too hot & causing a shutdown. When checking the event viewer, I see the shutdowns were WHEA Logger Event ID 46 - Fatal hardware error has occurred. Component: Memory. I did have a BSOD while performing an OCCT stability test to try and troubleshoot.

    Here is the compressed folder of the crash dump:
