NT Kernal and System BSOD help
An importent note: I'm legally blind and use a screen reader. It's a lot harder to troubleshoot when you can't read anything anymore, so please bare with me.
A few weeks ago I noticed some odd flashing single squares randomly popping up on my monitor. Also had some distorted sound. Sort of like a computer's sound when it crashes, almost stuttering. I did a clean install of the drivers and the flashing didn't seem to happen again.
The sound issue did persist though. I then tried to wake my computer from sleep mode, and it started spinning up before crashing. It then tried to boot up twice more and failed. I turned off the power, and it booted up after trying twice. When it came up it was fairly sluggish, and was only connected to a local network. My girlfriend looked up an odd error she saw when it booted up, which told her to turn off overclocking for my CPU. Once she changed the setting, it booted up.
Now I still have the sound issue seemingly randomly. My screen reader starts to stutter like it's going to crash. When it gets like this everything seems to be running slowly. Control Panel will take minutes to open if it opens at all. When it seemingly locked up I did CTRL+ALT+DEL which seemingly did nothing for awhile until the screen went black. Lasted for a minute or two before it blue screened.
There was a kernal power failure error in the System logs, so I cleaned out my system with air.
Everything seemed to be running okay for awhile. I set my virus scan to run a full scan last night, and woke up to find "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown.". I've found it like that several times now. Just a few moments ago GeForce Experience was updating the video drivers. It started to stutter again before crashing to a BSOD.
Any ideas Not sure if I did the attachment right.?
