Windows 10: PC Randomly Freezing

Hmm, interestingly there's no MEMORY.DMP in C:\Windows\ either... Haven't crashed in a while though but if I do I'll do another log collector + memory.dmp if there is one.

As for the missing drivers for the motherboard, do you suggest installing those from the page I linked earlier? I haven't gotten them installed at this moment, but did have them on my previous install.

 

For post #9 they were identified as problems but I was not able to identify a date. With the new drive lets wait to see if there are any more bsod of if they appear as faulting.

Please indicate how you modified the settings to save dmp files.
Did you set to automatic?
Did you uncheck automatic restart?

 

Just froze again, here's another log collector.

I haven't changed any dmp settings, I'm on a clean Windows 10 install, but here's the how the settings are currently:

In the zip that you posted there were no bsod.

Abeleton
Malwarebytes

 

There appear to have been only app crashes with unexpected shutdown and reboot.
The realtek driver and the drive were replaced.
The dmp debugging confirmed Realtek but there was also an Intel WHEA dump debugging which often implicates hardware.
Maybe the drive was the source?
We can continue monitoring to see if there are any new bsod or perform stress testing on the other hardware components.

The Intel processor diagnostic tool (IPDT)is relatively quick to run. It has a default setting in which it will stop by temperature trigger.
Run IPDT and post an image when it has completed.

Yeah I was installing Ableton + Malware AntiBytes at the time of the freeze, so that might be why? I've succesfully installed those and did the IPDT test:

Now here's a really dumb thing: I was playing a bit of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, and noticed lots of stuttering. So I opened up my Task Manager to find out if something was using a lot of Memory, and then I noticed I only had 4 out of my 8 GB RAM. So I opened up my PC, pulled both the RAM sticks out, cleaned a bit of dust out of the slots/sticks and put them back in. Then I had the full 8 GB RAM again, so this whole issue might have been a RAM stick that could have gotten loose? Who knows, I'll keep you posted if I crash again

 

Run memtest86+ version 5.01 for 8 or more runs with 8GB ram.
