Thanks in advance for looking into my issue. I've used these forums before on a previous build a few years ago and everyone was very helpful in identifying my issue and helping me correct. I hope that the problem I have for you today is not critical but it is definitely annoying to me. I've...

Hi guys/girls! I started to get this BSOD error this evening, and it appears to happen every 30, maybe 40 mins when I'm doing something on the PC. I've looked at a few other threads to see if any fixes would help there but I still have them pop up & restart my PC. I will say that almost all of...

I was getting some random BSOD's when I started using my desktop PC again a couple weeks ago. It has fairly new components and I update the drivers regularly. I tried all I could to diagnose the dmp files and fix it myself, but after many continued BSOD's I gave up, wiped my drive, and...
