He has an Aorus Pro Wifi x570 mobo with a 3700x cpu. Just a single SN700 ssd and not sure what ram... it's at non xmp settings at 2133mhz. He's only had it a bit over a year I think and it always ran great. Started to act up bad on him so I upgraded him from win 10 to win 11. Worked for awhile but started blue screening ect again. I updated his bios to the latest version... no help. It will fail to install new windows, and will not update the current windows or install a big game like WoW. I tried a different nvme drive, no joy. Do I need to back down his stock oc? It hits 4.48, but I thought that was normal. Do I need to change auto settings? It's driving me crazy....

It's not his rig that is having the issues, so his system spec's would not matter,

@johnspack It's been a long time buddy. Did he note the BSOD error message? My MSI X570 Gaming Plus wifi ran fine for 2 yrs then started acting up right before I upgraded to Win 11. BSOD with memory errors and would not complete the Win 11 install. Thought it was a corruption of Win 10 and did a re-install. Still kept BSOD with constant browser crashes. Turned out that swapping from Gskill Ram to Patriot solved the issue(prob a bad stick). Make sure the ram is set at it's base freq in case it was not binned properly. The rig now runs F@H in Ub untu 24/7 with no errors. Don't know if memory degradation is a real thing....

Just the standard blue screen saying your device has encountered errors and needs to restart. Right now everything is set to auto, which maybe it shouldn't... No xmp, just leaving ram at
2133 for now. Although if a stick has gone bad, then that might not help. Next time I'm there I'll have to check his logs, and then test his ram for errors. Would make sense though... as it
seems there is data corruption, but I though it was his drive. But that works fine after testing another drive with the same results. I also updated his bios to latest version and that didn't help.

Okay, I have to go back in. His computer can't boot windows again, I have to assume it's ram at this point. What's the fastest way to stress ram?

Run memtest86 but instead of running both modules at the same time. Run them one at a time for a few hours each

I've had RAM go bad before and it's usually one stick or another. You can try testing with one stick installed, while alternate sticks and trying different slots. You can use this to sniff out either a bad memory channel or a bad stick.
The BIOS should have reset itself when you updated the BIOS, and everything should be running at stock.

If you have another NVMe or SSD on hand, you can always try removing the original drive, and then trying to install Windows on to the second drive.

The board should have a Secure Erase option, which would wipe the original NVMe drive. This would only solve the OS being corrupt, not a failing drive. He would need to back up his system or the files he wants to keep. Also, an unstable CPU or RAM can corrupt the OS, so doing this might not get to the root of the problem.

When I run into this situation, I'll start running stress tests on the system to see if I can find a point where it will crash. If it finds errors with Memtest or Prime95 Large FFT's, then your system might have a memory issue. If it crashes with Prime95 small FFT's then it could be a CPU issue.

Need stop code information. Are you getting "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR" or "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT"?

Also, if the BIOS is reset to defaults, you will need to disable CSM.

Mostly memory management. I brought a new set of ram over today, and it's fixed. Everything installs and updates now. Dam....
