    Windows 10. Small freeze, then black screen and hard lockup


    I have had this issue with my machine for a while and it can happen in both load and idle. I stress tested the computer for several hours with no issues and even played games and then suddenly the screen goes black and it locks up.

    For whatever reason, my computer does not create a bump file, despite using the correct settings. Also, the event viewer no errors to speak off.

    Temperature during stress test.
    Voltages during stress test.


    It happens on a 980gtx ti and a 2080ti card, both with updated drivers using DDU. Anyone have any idea what is happening or any idea what I can try to fix it?

    :)

    @Maban - does GPU-Z fail the same way for you the way it does for me? I.e. total system freeze/lockup, requiring a hard reset?

    @W1zzard - I will try the suggested steps later today, as I am not near that PC at the moment.
