Daily BSOD, seemingly random error messages
Hi,
My computer has a rather strange problem: it will crash with a BSOD the first time it is started after being off for more than a few minutes.
For example, if my computer was off overnight, within a few hours of being turned on it will crash with a seemingly random BSOD (different error message each time). Prior to the crash I can notice audio stutter and crackling, as well as somewhat choppy video in games despite fps readings being fine.
My approach up until now has simply been to restart the computer immediately after it starts for the first time each day (or when I notice the audio/video stutter), which almost always prevents the system from crashing.
I suspect the problem is a hardware fault with either the PSU, motherboard or memory, but I have no idea how to confirm my suspicions.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
