New thought about my PSU & BSOD !
Your help and input needed!
I've been having trouble with the BSOD on start up. About 60-80 percent of the time on boot I get the Blue Screen, but with a restart one to worse case 6-7 times later system will boot normally. I've checked RAM, GPU, temps and the like. I even have AMD and MSI willing to check out my CPU and Mobo for issues. Before I do this I've been using this forum and trying everything first because in my gut I don't think it is the mobo or cpu. I hit apon another thought and that was with my 600watt power supply (Ultra X3-600wt)
I have alot of things drawing power and using a PS calculator (eXtreme Power Supply Calculator) it showed a suggested min. power of 583 and a recommended power of 626watts. My system of course blue screens but has also started shutting down and rebooting. What do you all think about the PSU being taxed right to the limit or close and causing the BSOD on boot issue and the shut downs?
I could bore you all with everything I've done to look into this if needed and a list of all my components is in my profile.
Thanks in advance and this forum rocks!
