TL;DR: CPU most likely damaged but I want to make sure its not GPU or Motherboard or whatever else.
A year ago I started to get random BSoDs with a collection of different codes: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (and variants) PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA Different WATCHDOG_VIALATION 's SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (with ntfs.sys and other)
The BSoDs sometimes happened on the old SSD before it really even fully launched Windows (resolution wasn’t correct), aswell as during the instalation process of Windows on a new HDD (even when booted from the flash drive with the installer).
I’ve checked by using other RAM sticks that the RAM wasn’t the problem. Same with all my drives.
A few days ago Windows on my SSD was corrupted (the files are still fine) after a flurry of BSoDs and couldn’t launch windows right. After getting a new HDD I’ve installed Windows on it, and the same errors happened, aswell as the corruption after a flurry of them.
My computer is over 5 years old and all its parts were unchanged before the BSoDs started. I’ve slept on the thermal paste for my CPU and think it might be damaged because of that (after applying new paste today nothing changed). The BSoDs tell otherwise, but could it still be the CPU or some other part that works with data on RAM and drives?
please help lmao im dying here i have no idea whats even broken and none of this makes any sense to me (other than that its most likely that my cpu is damaged but i just want to make sure that no other part may be the issue)
Yes, the 2TB HDD was checked alone. They are both 3.5 New info: most critical errors in event logger are Kernel-Power, there are some that cause BSoDs but arent classified as critical (im not sure if that info is in the dump files) ive just unplugged the old hdd and the errors became a lot less frequent, but they are still the same. Could it be the PSU or CPU being overloaded? And im sorry i had no idea about the page file Thank you
