Problem on PC with BSOD

[MCJAxolotl7]

Weird suggestion, but try running a benchmark on live linux off of a USB drive? Hardinfo2 is on Ubuntu apt

I am willing to bet this is ram related. Especially given the corrupt filesystem. I’m not sure what you’re running or how long; but I can tell you it sometimes isn’t as simple as”overnight” I had a bad stick in one of my systems literally ran a ram test for like 27
Hours came back with 4 bad address’. Doesn’t seem like a lot but almost every time I started to load the system it would trip.

what’s really important is understanding that some tests simply work faster than others Windows memory diagnostic detected an issue after a few minutes but memtest86 is the one I had to run over night. After about 6 hours before I went to bed everything was still good.

Interesting that

• Windows Memory Diagnostic

was so much better than

• MemTest86

No; I don't think that is the conclusion that can be or should be drawn. These suites test different failure modes in different orders and different speeds with different durations. Not to mention what ever defect your RAM happens to have. It could easily be the reverse.

Sounds to me like ram, psu, or storage. Need to test that psu. Just unhook that sata drive too. Storage i assume. bsods aren't doing it any good, and it will help eliminate storage as an issue. I see you've done sfc, but what about a chkdsk /f ? Does it scan clean or find errors?

Temps are good?

Missing a lot of info here.

Yes, as far as I can tell and have checked temps are all good.
I don't believe it's the hard drive's issue since it has only been used for storage of files and nothing else and it was also used on my previous system on which I never had a BSOD issue.
Regarding chkdsk /f command I remember trying it but not being able to run it because I was getting a message about NTFS system something like that.

I just quickly rebuilt everything, checked psu cables and stuff to see if there is any visible damage, took out and in again ram sticks, gpu, cpu cooler, refreshed paste, only thing I did not take out is cpu and sys fans but they are not connected to mobo, they go to an adapter of the case that takes power directly from psu.
So I connected only, keyboard, mouse, ethernet and only the Dell QHD monitor to gpu through display port for now and there is no crash yet. I will just wait to see if anything happens with the system like this just so I can make sure there is no peripheral issue, or more than one monitor issue and go on from there.

I am currently on this stage still. Around 3-4 days have passed, PC is currently being used for normal office work and a little gaming and I still have no crashes yet.
I will go on like this for a while and try to stress system a little more and after a few days I will connect the second display monitor, which I think will be the biggest test to see if crashes return.
If BSOD never appear again after connecting the monitor and rest of peripherals, I will probably assume that the fix was one of the removal - putting back on of one of the pieces mentioned above, with RAM being the most probable.
However, I am not very optimistic, I believe that crashes will return after I connect second monitor, so I will update as soon as I proceed.

What it will do is determine if your file system is being corrupted, or just windows itself. Not to mention you want to eliminate all non-essential equipment. You do your thing.

A quick update so I can provide a solution for my issue, I think that now it is safe to say that the crashes have completely stopped since I did a rebuilt on my system.
What I did was to remove all the psu cables (full modular), removed gpu, ram, ssds and hdd, basically everything apart from cpu, even the cpu cooler, and just placed them back in their place and the crashes stopped, really strange but it may be a possible solution for anyone facing similar issues.

Bad connections badically

I am a great fan for using silicone oil sparingly on contacts to keep them clear of corrosion; some people use Stabilant 22.
