I have been getting repeated blue screens of death, most of which have the error CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION caused by ntoskrnl.exe. They tend to come at complete random. The latest one happened as I was downloading a game. However, I have had several happen while simply browsing the internet so the cause seems borderline random as far as I can tell. The crashes sometimes fail to output minidump logs.
This is a relatively fresh installation of Windows, less than two months old and it has had issues since very early on but the issues have never been consistent (as you can tell by the variety of BSODs I've experienced). This is just the latest set.
I have recently upgraded my RAM. I've since reinstalled Windows and ran Windows Memory Diagnostics and Memtest86+, which did not yield any errors so I assume that's not the cause of the issue. Googling previous BSODs suggested Hard Drive errors so I unplugged my HDD entirely but the PC still produced blue screens.
In addition to CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION BSODs, I have equally random computer freezes with similar frequency. My computer will entirely freeze up, with every single program not responding. The only option then is to hard-power off. The most recent one was after a reboot. I only had time to switch on my browser.
One suggestion that I have tried is disabling the virtual memory paging file (which deletes it), then reenabling it. This seems to possibly delay the blue screens somewhat but I haven't seen enough of them to be sure whether that's truly the case or just a coincidence.
I have attempted numerous fixes and nothing has seemed to work. This is probably the most obtuse computer issue I've ever come across and I could really use the help.
My profile lists my hardware specifications and I am providing the required log files.
