  1. PC Hard reboots while or after playing video games, no BSOD


    I have been chasing an issue wherein my PC will reboot either during or after playing a video game. The only time I've seen a relevant error was recently when "reboot after bugcheck" was displayed in event viewer. I researched that topic and performed suggested troubleshooting steps and have created a folder with relevent minidumps as well as the MSinfo output. I've attached the zipped folder containing the event viewer log, the minidumps, and the MSinfo output. Any help with this aggravating issue will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Logs, Dumps, Info:https://1drv.ms/u/s!AthsDDy98fatjdgdT-I

    Hi Jackson,

    • Expand Display Adapters.

    PC reboots (no BSOD) on CPU stress

    Hi fellow TPU members,

    not too long ago, the box my gf's PC was transported in gave way on the stairs. Yes, you got it right, that sent a PC tumbling down a flight of steps alright.

    Stuff broke. Also, stuff remained intact somehow.

    I bought her a new case, new CPU cooler and we removed the floppy drive, so far so good. But the PC started crashing for no apparent reason, without a BSOD.

    I tested:
    • Memtest86+, left overnight, 0 errors
    • Scanned the HDD for errors, nothing there
    • Left FurMark burning up the GFX card and drawing some power, no problems there
    • Ran Ubuntu from a Live CD doing nothing special, didn't crash
    • Ran OCCT, Linpack, Prime95, all 3 caused reboots within minutes
    • Oh, and I disabled "Restart on error" so I'm sure it's not a BSOD.
    Now, I can still try and test something CPU intensive on Ubuntu, but my guess is the CPU didn't survive.
    Before I do anything drastic like whippin' out the magic wallet and get her a new AMD quad, is there anything I didn't see?
    I'm guessing the motherboard could be borkered as well, but can I check that other than replacing the CPU with a working one?
    Any suggestions on which proggies I can use from an Ubuntu Live CD to stress the CPU?

    Windows 10 BSOD WHEAA_UNCORRECTABLE when playing embedded videos


    This BSOD has been plaguing me for awhile now. It happens in a variety of weird instances.


    • Playing videos embedded in web pages
    • Playing videos in Steam
    • Opening the League of Legends Launcher
    • Most recently, I began playing Overwatch and in game, changed the graphics settings to 'Ultra' and it immediately crashed. Now, even opening the game will crash it. I have deleted and reinstalled the game on a different hard drive, it makes no difference.

    My computer is old with some new hardware added on over time (so I guess its just the hard drives that are old. I installed a new SSD where I installed to OS. The other hard drives are from 2010)
