Event ID 41 Task Category 63

If i get no BSODs, no errors, no events logged in event viewer apart from kernel power 41 (63), not even the windows did not shut down successfully screen (don't know if that is still in windows 10), and the computer just turns off and a few seconds later it turns back on, is it safe to assume that it is the power supply and not the motherboard? Because I have heard that this can be caused by the motherboard. Also when this happens, is it harmful for the rest of the hardware?

 

Critical Kernel-Power event (event ID 41, Task Category (63))

Hi TheMadDog52,

Thanks for sharing the Event Viewer Logs.

Event Viewer logs indicates Event ID 41: "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first". This event indicates that some unexpected activity prevented Windows from shutting down correctly. Such a shutdown might be caused by an interruption in the power supply or by a Stop error.

Since BugcheckCode and PowerButtonTimestamp values are zero as mentioned below:

BugcheckCode 0

BugcheckParameter1 0x0

BugcheckParameter2 0x0

BugcheckParameter3 0x0

BugcheckParameter4 0x0

SleepInProgress 0

PowerButtonTimestamp 0

BootAppStatus 0

Checkpoint 0

This behavior might indicate a power supply problem. If the power to a computer is interrupted, the computer might shut down without generating a Stop error.

To help isolate the problem, do the following steps:

Disable Fast Startup:

Disable overclocking. If the computer has overclocking enabled, disable it. Verify that the issue occurs when the system runs at the correct speed.

Check the memory. Use a memory checker to determine the memory health and configuration. Verify that all memory chips run at the same speed and that every chip is configured correctly in the system.

You can test the RAM with the free utility MemTest86, then run a full 8 pass scan to test your RAM for physical errors:

Check the power supply. Verify that the power supply has enough wattage to appropriately handle the installed devices.

Check for overheating. Examine the internal temperature of the hardware and check for any overheating components.

Kernel-Power, Event ID 41, Task Category: (63)

Ive been having this Issue for months now, and I dont know what to do. Ive read somewhere that i should get a new PSU, but is there really no other fix? I dont really want to invest in a new one. I posted this question once a few months ago and got suggested to delete the video card drivers and install them anew, but that didnt help either.

Specs:

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 FE

Intel i9-10900K

32GB RAM

Phanteks Revolt X 80 PLUS Platinum 1000W PSU
