Windows 10: Windows update crash system

The last update on Windows, keeps giving me issues. Especially, I am unable to open any apps, cannot restart my computer; I cannot even open the settings. So, I reboot and restore Windows to previous Windows point. This works and everything is back to usual. However, then my computer re-updates and I restart the process again. I have asked copilot which took me through a few steps but no luck. Something needs to be done about it, it has been ongoing for 2 months. Despite the latest January update, the problem persists. Furthermore, despite I paused the updates, these keep taking place. I check

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

ive watch my temps and both the cpu and gpu are within normal ranges. when it freezes it simply freezes the image and stops the sound. i must reboot to get back to windows.

 

Help with unstable system

latest update,
I have changed psu for xfx 750W and keeping to stock values and use on board graphics, the system seems stable , has been for several days. If I try to unleash, then Its prone to occasional crashing.
So next step was to put HD6950 in with CPU in stock setting.
System very unstable again. crashes after about 5 mins.
I have lots of fans , CPU temp ~35deg, HDD ~30deg,
HD6950 ~ 49deg
When system crashes, I dont get bSOD but a grey screen with thin black vertical lines. I then have to re-boot . I get back, Windows reports error with usual 124 error.
Could the CPU be an issue ?
Dont have another to test.
Any suggestions ?
Thank you
