error source

About this tag
The error source tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about hardware errors logged by the Windows Hardware Error Architecture (WHEA). Users report events such as WHEA Internal Parity Error, Machine Check Exception, and corrected hardware errors, often with the error source field showing 'unknown error source' or specific components like PCI Express Root Port. Common themes include troubleshooting single or recurring WHEA events on systems running Windows 7, Windows 10, and Windows 11, with a focus on processor, memory, or PCIe-related issues. The tag is used for threads seeking help diagnosing the root cause of these errors, interpreting event log details, and finding solutions to prevent further occurrences.
