0x01E BSOD with factory-built PC, both before and after reformatting
0x01E was the last BSOD code, but they vary.
I've had this secondary computer for 2 and a half years now but it was very rarely used. Partly because of things getting in the way but also because it just bluescreens constantly. It is mainly used for playing games, so most of the BSOD occur during that, but it can randomly occur elsewhere.
It is factory-built and has had issues since I first got it. One of the first things I tried, since it was already new, was to completely reinstall windows and reformat the disk while doing it. The problem persisted. At this point I was thinking it may be a hardware issue. Today I ran memcheck86 and it got through two passes with no errors (I will try letting it run overnight for more passes to be sure). I also tried physically removing the RAM to test each one, but the problem is I can never just make it BSOD, it is seemingly random and often won't do it when I want it to do it.
Perhaps it is a driver (though there is very little installed on the PC at all, because it is so rarely used, and even less when it first started doing this), but I'm not entirely sure how to go about narrowing it down.
Some of the most recent "cause addresses" for the BSODs:
ntoskrnl.exe+75c00
ntoskrnl.exe+b6ab3
ntoskrnl.exe+705c0
ntoskrnl.exe+705c0
ntoskrnl.exe+705c0
Npfs.SYS+6e9f
rdyboost.sys+91b0
rdyboost.sys+91b0
nvlddmkm.sys+c38040
win32k.sys+928f2
rdyboost.sys+91b0
ntoskrnl.exe+705c0
ntoskrnl.exe+70700
win32k.sys+ce301
If you need different/more information, let me know, and thanks
