BSOD error 0x00000007E while doing normal tasks
Hi, I randomly started having these errors the other day while watching a video on youtube/playing a game on Steam where my computer would slow down and then freeze, and eventually go to the blue screen described above.
I've googled it a bit but not much has helped and i've checked my system multiple times for viruses/rootkits etc but these errors keep happening.
Also of mention, the eventviewer doesn't seem (to me) to record anything happening around the time of the crash, and despite having minidumps turned on, it doesn't seem to be producing any error logs that I can find (so i've taken to getting photos of the BSOD), although i'm not sure what the Diagnostics tool picked up.
I'm not completely sure but could it be the hard drive? I've also had the F4 error, and i'm using a SSD as my main drive and when Windows restarts it sometimes cannot find it and tells me to reboot and select a boot drive, and i've switched out the cables and checked the connections to the motherboard and they all seem fine, yet it still crashes afterwards.
I've uploaded a BSOD file that I got with the diagnostics tool to see if that works for anyone to help me, as well as pictures of the latest two BSOD I got.
other notes: I updated my BIOS about 2 months ago and upon checking back, it's still up to date.
I've also ran sfc /scannow 3-4 times and it has come back clean with no problems.
