Random BSOD

hi,

recently having random bsod crashes. be it watching shows or playing games or system idle.

The crash dumps are blaming hardware for the issue. Let us check the basic hardware components.

Are you overclocking? As you are getting BSODs, you should stop overclocking and run all the hardware components like CPU, GPU and RAM to their default settings. Also set the BIOS to default, too.

How To Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS)
​

Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.

eXtreme Power Supply Calculator - The only power supply calculator trusted by PSU manufacturers and computer enthusiasts
​

Also let us know the wattage of the installed PSU.

Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/311593-speccy-publish-snapshot-your-system-specs.html .

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.

How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
​

Run memtest86+ for at least 8 consecutive passes.

If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
​

Take a screenshot of the furmark window before closing it. Upload the screenshot for us. Also let us know if you have experienced any crash/BSOD and/or artifacts during the test.

Stress test the CPU.

Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95
​

It saves the result as a .txt file in the prime95's folder. Upload the file for us.

Let us know the results.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high.  This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffffffffffff88, memory referenced
Arg2: 0000000000000002, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000001, bitfield :
    bit 0 : value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
    bit 3 : value 0 = not an execute operation, 1 = execute operation (only on chips which support this level of status)
Arg4: fffff80002ed9656, address which referenced memory

ive ran tests on memtest and furmarks. havent had any crashes.

the bsod happens 100% when i watch videos from Twitch

i believe it had something to do with the drivers. since all of the hardware tests came out fine.

 

[Arc]

The crash dumps are not providing anything based on which we may blame Twitch. But as the user, you must understand it rightly. So, as you are feeling that the issue is with Twitch and nothing else, then I go with it.

Unfortunately we will not be able to troubleshoot an external thing causing code corruption to the system. I would suggest you to stay away from Twitch.
