Hello everyone. First time posting here.
I am have been dealing with a very frustrating issue for the past month or so. My computer keeps freezing, locking up and blue screening on me at very random times during usage. Sometimes it will BSOD when I'm watching You\Tube or Twitch. Sometimes it will BSOD when I'm playing a game like Monster Hunter World and sometimes it will BSOD when I'm doing absolutely nothing with my PC. Not only that, but the stop code errors that I have been getting with my BSODs have been different almost every time.
WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR
ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
And many, many more. With all these different BSOD stopcodes, I haved been sent on a wild goose chase when it comes to trying to figure out and fix the BSOD issue on my own.
At one point I got fed up with trying to fix the problem myself and took it to not one, but two repair guys to see if they could fix it. The first guy said that he couldn't find any problems with my PC other than some malware that he removed early and then suggested to install a fresh copy of windows on a new M.2 SSD. I agreed to let him install it and took the PC home. It worked fine for three days before it started to blue screen on me again.
Second guy I took it to didn't do too much with fixing my PC except fixing my ram speed to its recommended setting. He told me my ram was underclocked, which I was aware of but didn't think it was that much of an issue. Again, he told me he couldn't get the PC to blue screen on him. Yet, I took it home that day and it BSODd on me almost as soon as I got to the login screen and hit the Enter key once.
At this point, I am at wits end. This PC of mine is only about six months old when I built it myself and everything was working fine until about January of this year when the BSOD crashes started.
Here is what I have attempted in order to fix the situation:
I have updated windows 10 with the latest patches
I have uninstalled both my Nvidia drivers and Realtek audio drivers using DDU before reinstalling the driver to the latest version.
I have ran the Windows Memory Diagnostic Test and found no issues
I have ran CHKDSK several times and found no issues
Even though I have never attempted overclocking on this PC yet, I have reset my BIOS settings to make sure that there was no overclocking set.
I updated my motherboard's firmware to the latest version.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled all Intel HDD software made for my motherboard vis MSI's official support page.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Realtek and Nahimic software to their latest versions.
Some have suggested that perhaps a peripheral connected to the PC could be causing the BSOds, but I have tried using various different hardware with my PC as well as running it with only the bare essentials connected to it and it still gives me BSODs.
I have also tried all my usual peripherals on an older PC and had no issues with it.
I am very much clueless on what to do at this point other than bashing my computer with a sledgehammer out of frustration and building a new one, but I really don't want to do that, so...
Does anyone have any clue as to what's going on with my PC? It seriously seems like it has something to do with my particular PC set since two repair guys couldn't get it to BSOD when they got a hold of it but will randomly blue screen on me whenever I am using it at home.
