Multiple BSODs, primarily concerning ntoskrnl.exe
Hello, I have had a slew of BSOD problems within the past year or so, they seem to come and go for the most part. I have tried a ton of things to pinpoint the problem but have not really be able to tell what exactly is causing the issue.
The BSODs will happen at random for the most part, sometimes during a game, others while doing nothing at all. To make matters worse a lot of times things will crash randomly, especially games, but sometimes even chrome tabs will just crash unexpectedly, these crashes tend to happen more often then a full on BSOD. My computer worked perfectly for the longest time after I built it but after a few initial BSODs it started to be quite unstable.
Things I have tried:
- Updating Drivers
- Re seating RAM (multiple times)
- Running on individual RAM sticks
- Memtest for 8 passes, 12 hours, no errors
- chdsk
- I have reinstalled windows once and seemed to make the errors less prevalent, but didn't cure it
- sfc /scannow says I have errors but cannot fix them, I am unsure how I go about this
- I do not run overclocked
- and some other irrelevant things
I tried running verifier but I couldn't get windows to boot properly, after showing the splash screen it would just go straight to a black screen and just hang there, didn't BSOD or crash, just froze there.
maybe you guys can provide some help :)
Thanks in advance!
