    Hello, EndlessCode welcome to the Forums. I will see if I can help you on this. You had 2 dump files which is what we use to debug. The first one was

    Code:
    BugCheck 1E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff8800406254c, 0, ffffffffffffffff}
    Probably caused by : afd.sys ( afd!AfdAllocateMdlChain32+16c )
    Followup: MachineOwner
    That is the Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock which comes from Windows updates. The second one concerns me most.

    Code:
    BugCheck 1E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff80002efdee0, 0, ffffffffffffffff}
    Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiLocateAddress+40 )
    Followup: MachineOwner
    Memory corruption can cause the debugger to blame anything and everything. It makes dump files not reliable. So, I would like to test the memory first. It is a very long test and will probably take you about 6-8 hours to run. I normally suggest run it overnight. It needs to run for a minimum of 8 consecutive passes or until you get an error. If you get an error, you can stop the test.

    Please Run Memtest86+

       Information
    Please download from this site only http://www.memtest.org/ in the middle of the page are the Download links, you can download the ISO.zip or the Auto USB Flash Drive installer.zip

    Extract the Zip file. If you chose the ISO image, burn it to a CD using Windows Disk Image Burner or any Image burner you may have. If you downloaded the Auto USB installer, extract it, insert your USB 2.0 Flash Drive and take note of the drive letter. Run the installer, select the Flash Drive Letter, check the format box and press next. It will install memtest86+ to a flash drive. You can use either V4.20 or V5.01. Boot from your selected media. If you use V5.01 it will tell you to press certain buttons at the start, please press no buttons. The test will begin on it's own and continue to run until you stop it. It needs to run for 8 complete passes or until you receive an error. If you receive an error, stop the test. Even 1 error is a fail. Each pass tests a different part of the ram and each of the 10 tests in each pass tests something different. It takes a minimum of 8 passes to completely test the ram, more passes are better. It is quite a long test and will take several hours depending on how much ram you have. Due to the time length it is best to run overnight. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask

    After 12 hours Memtest86+ did not find any problems.
    A few days ago it randomly froze 2 times without bsod.
    On startup it stop after windows login and later it stop while I was moving folders.

    Could it be age?
    After 5 years it's probably time to replace something other then just the hhd.

    Thank you for your time.

    Well, the release date on that model was 2007. An Athlon II is put under a lot of strain while gaming as is that graphics card. However, that's not what we are trying to do here. You have no new dumps to look at. With it freezing, the cause could be a lot of things. In your BIOS, do you have voltages? If you do, please tell me the values for your +12V, +5V and +3.3V. I would also run Seatools for DOS, both the long and the short test SeaTools for DOS and Windows - How to Use

    Also, please go to the Manufacturer's web site and update all drivers and BIOS files for your particular model.

    I would also find a Video card stress test for your card. I normally recommend Furmark, but I'm not sure your card would take it. It's pretty brutal. Whatever you run, keep a close watch on GPU temps and stop the test if it gets too hot. Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark Ungine Heaven is another good video card stress test. It's pretty hard on the card, but there are settings that you can use to make it easier on it. Plus, it's much more interesting to watch than Furmark. Download Unigine 'Heaven' DX11 Benchmark 4.0 | techPowerUp

    Do you monitor your CPU and GPU temps? I would suggest you get dedicated utilities for both and watch them closely. You may also try cleaning as much of the dust out as possible. That can seriously affect temps.

    Let me know how things go after you finish all of that.
