I'm having the exact same issue as original poster. Cold boot and on desktop. Usually 5-10 min in I'll lockup and freeze. Requires restart. From then on I have no more issues the rest of the day or night, even when playing high demand games. If I shut down or sleep it's hit or miss if it will freeze again that day. But only seems to do it from a cold boot. No BSOD or any other issues with PC it runs liek a champ other than this freeze usually daily.

Event manager shows just the critical powered off without shutting down.

I can post pic of my warnings and errors to compare to original posters

I can post setup but we have the same MOBO and CPU combo. I've also been dealing with this for 5-6months and it's just annoying and I'd like it fixed.

I've tried:
New PSU
Updated Bios flashed from usb
All drivers are updated.
CPU and memory are compatible via msi website.
Mem test ran all night 8+ passes with no issues
Old and new VGA drivers
Fresh install windows 10
Fresh install windows 7
Reseated Ram, CPU, cooler with new paste, and VGAs (sli)
Power options set to max performance.

So I had enough with that MSI board and bit bullet on asrock x99x fatality. First day with it and new install. So far rock solid. Running all 4 sticks of RAM (even the one that wouldn't show up on the old MSI board) with no issues. I'll update if the freeze comes back but I'm thinking that msi mobo might have been to problem all along. Bad reviews on it =/

It might even be the actual dimm slot as you say. If you know for certain which is a good RAM stick you could try running it in that slot and see if anything occurs, if it does then chances are it's the slot.

So it looks like it was the board after all..... Wow! Well I'm glad you at least found a solution of sorts and being able to still use the old RAM is a nice bonus I guess. If any issues crop up please post again. Best of luck with the new board..
