BSOD Events After Rig Upgrade

In January, I decided to upgrade my rig from specs shown in system 2 in my profile, to the specs in system 1. All hard drives from the previous build were transferred to the current build. On initial boot up, everything seemed okay. First thing I did was erase drivers from the old build and reinstall them with drivers for my current hardware. Upon playing games, Deep Rock Galactic specifically, I encountered Unity crashes and eventually BSOD events. Some of which occurred during game startup, and some occurred while playing the game. This does also happen with other games that aren't unity based, and some BSOD events without a game running and doing nongame related tasks (discord calls, watching youtube, browsing with opera etc.) As more time went on, the BSOD events became more frequent to the point I can't play any game at all without a crash or BSOD. After attempting to find a solution through other forums online, I came across Windbg, however I kept coming out with a solution that didn't work for me. My next step was to reset windows but keep personal files to see if this would help, it did not. Two nights ago 5/16/24, I performed another windows reset but this time I deleted my personal files, starting off on a clean slate. The only applications I downloaded so far from the internet (not from my backup folder) is Windbg and Discord. Occasionally, I will encounter BSOD events the second I reach the login screen and when the desktop loads. I will attach all the .dmp files I have saved since I began troubleshooting this concern along with the V2 log I ran today 5/18/24. I have yet to have a BSOD event today, but will report if I do encounter one. This is a bit of a lengthy post, so I apologize in advance if I left anything out that can be used to fix my issue. Any help to resolve my issue would be greatly appreciated, as I put almost 2 grand into this rebuild and haven't been able to play games stably. dump files

This is a 4 month old build (except the tower case and hard drives). No overclocks were present during any BSOD events. All hardware is out of the return period and none of which have a warranty except manufacturer warranty if applicable. Not knowing if this a hardware issue or not, I cannot determine which part I need to verify manufacturer warranty.

Please perform the following steps:



1) Run Tuneup plus > post a share link

https://www.tenforums.com/attachmen...-files-use-bsod-debugging-tuneup_plus_log.zip





2) Open administrative command prompt and copy and paste:

powercfg -h off



3) The BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends International, LLC. 6.03, 2/16/2023

Upgrade the BIOS: 6.03 > 11.11 (most up to date non-beta BIOS




4) For testing purposes find RAM displayed on the Qualified Vendor List (QVL)

I have attached a zip file containing 2 tuneup logs: one with the 32gb ddr5 installed listed in system 1 on my profile (not listed in ASRock's memory QVL) with hibernate still on with BIOS version 11.11, and the other with 32gb ddr5 installed using ram listed in ASRock's memory QVL with hibernate set to off using powercfg command w/ admin cmd and BIOS version 11.11

For any new BSOD please post a new V2 share link into the newest post.

Here's the latest V2 log

How come hibernation was not turned off?

Hibernation was not off for the first log because I was hoping there would be a difference after turning it off before performing the second log

Are you willing to turn it off now and for the duration of the troubleshooting?

I disabled hibernation and restarted my pc before performing the second V2 log, which is in the zip file named "RGBRIG-(2024-05-19_16-11-58)", the most recent zip file i posted.

The log collected reported:

FastStartup : Enabled

Turning off hibernation will turn off both:
a) hibernation
b) fast startup

I double checked control panel for hibernate and fast startup options, neither were listed. The log times which you quoted were for hours before I disabled hibernate/fast startup. and I ensured I restarted my pc after turning off hibernate/fast start before running the second log again. Since then, I've yet to have a BSOD event, I'm now going to try installing steam and playing DRG to see if any BSOD or crash occurs

For any new BSOD post a new V2 share link into the newest post.

After about a week of having no BSODs, playing games and using my rig as usual, I encountered 2 back to back BSODs. The first time, I was watching netflix, and had discord open on another monitor (not in a call). The second time, I just relogged back into windows, and 2 or so minutes later without touching my keyboard or moving mouse, another BSOD. I've attached a google drive link to the tuneup and V2 zip files.

How come Windows fast startup / hibernation did not remain off?

When can you test QVL RAM?

I noticed fast startup and hibernation was somehow enabled at one point (wasn't done by me, it has since been shut off. I have already checked QVL RAM, compatible RAM is installed

Hibernation and Sleep cause more trouble than they're worth and if you really need to be away from your PC for more than a couple of hours, shut it down.

If you're not using for like a day or two, run your screensaver.

After attempting to play snowrunner since i've rebuilt my pc, more BSODs, different stop code this time, because why not....

Edit: I'm also having issue with updated my NVIDIA graphics drivers to the latest vesion 555.85. The earliest my pc would install without the installer failing is 551.86. If necessary I will open an NVIDIA thread if anyone has reason to believe that may be the issue, but why would I be able to play Deep Rock just fine?

The dump files are typical of malfunctioning or incompatible hardware.

Please swap test hardware components.

What other components should I try swapping? I could try my old GPU but I don't have another CPU on hand.
