Updating here to say I did all that and still ran into the same issues. Only I've finally found something in event viewer that may be useful? After every crash, I am getting a WHEA-Logger Event 1 error, and it's generating this .dmp file...

I tried to boot the PC into Safe Mode, but it froze while I was trying to enable it. I forgot to mention that while doing a fresh windows install, I had to unplug most of my drives in order for the install to finish, otherwise it would freeze as well. I'm going to unplug my hard drives from the...

So I'm back after a month and a half, new RAM passed the memtest just fine, didn't run into any more random freezing issues after unplugging the rig from the UPS (strange I know), but the freezing is happening again, this time on another game. The whole system locks up. No blue screen. The...

Should I run memtest with these configurations as well? The behavior of the freezing hasn't changed since switching my old RAM out for the new one, so I'm hesitant to say it's the RAM at all, but I'll go ahead and try each stick in each slot and see if something happens.

Update to this: I'm still having the issue even after turning off XMP profiling. At this point I'm convinced that one of the DIMM slots on my motherboard is bad and causing the issue. But I don't know for sure. I know there probably isn't much people can do to help at this point, but I thought...

So I popped in the new RAM today, turned on XMP profiling, and within a couple of hours had another complete lock-up freeze. No blue screen this time, so no error code and no minidump file to work with. I don't know what could be doing it, but here are my PC specs: CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R)...

I had the default XMP profile settings enabled out of the box and was having the aforementioned issues from day 1 of using the new rig, so I can't imagine I was pushing it too hard? The default XMP settings had the voltage at 1.25; I've seen that 1.25 is a little high for DDR5 RAM but I trusted...

Memtest returned one error at the first pass, no errors on the following passes- but one error is a fail, right? If it helps, I'm running my RAM in the XMP Profile. Will turning off XMP potentially solve the issue at the cost of running my RAM at slower speeds, or should I get some new RAM...

Just an update: I reinstalled windows as instructed, and now I'm getting a kmode exception not handled bluescreen error. EDIT: I'm still getting bluescreens with the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error even after doing the clean windows install. I installed brand new drivers for all my devices and...

Sorry, internet was out for a few days here. I'll give my PC a clean windows install then. Just out of curiosity, does it specify where the storage access operation was from specifically? As in, could that also be a failing hard drive or something like that?

Hi, I'm very new to making these kinds of posts, so apologies if I'm not following any specific guidelines/posting in the wrong place. I recently bought an entirely new rig minus a new GPU, and moved all my storage devices, including the one holding my OS to it. Things were fine for the most...
