BSOD On Shutdown Causing Infinite Boot Loop
Hi Everyone, I am new here so forgive me if I am going about this the wrong way. I am usually able to solve problems one way or another but I am at a dead end and I don't know what to do at this point. I have had this problem sporadically since I have built my computer but recently it has become a very regular occurrence and it has me extremely frustrated. Nine out of ten times I am getting a very long "shutting down" screen when I try to restart or shutdown my pc and it usually results in a bluescreen
(Driver power state failure) and a restart where I will need to start the process again. Most of the time I end up having to hold the power button down to completely shut the computer down. On restart I will usually get a message stating "Overclock failed" and I need to enter the BIOS and restart before I can start my PC even though there is no current overclock. I know the basics to building a computer and general trouble shooting but I am at a loss with bluescreens so I would appreciate greatly any bit of advice that anyone may provide. Thank you ahead of time for taking a moment to read this and thank you for any advice you may have!
I cleaned out as many of the repeat dump files as possible to make it easier to go through.
