    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    So. I've replaced the CPU and had it running the best part of 2 days and there have been no crashes since, my guess is the previous CPU has simply become faulty after 2 years or so of usage. I'm away from home a few days and will have time to do more regular usage again after I'm back. I will...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Hi again, Yes I agree with you. However I cant really do anything until next week because I am currently on a limited wifi, so a clean re-install of Windows is not possible. When I arrive at my new place next week I'll have unlimited and faster internet so that will be a good time for a clean...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    That guy's issue has similarities with the CPU spiking in temp while on idle, though its usually quite small spikes unless he moves the mouse (which doesn't seem to be a cause for me). My CPU just goes into meltdown while idle for seemingly no rhyme nor reason and with no strange programs or...

    Okay I'll give that link a read. However I cant install Ryzen Master on this computer, everytime I attempt it it says that an equivalent or newer version is installed. Yet its nowhere to be found on the computer, and I have already deleted Ryzen Master a few weeks ago through programs and...

    On which page is there an option to grab BIOS 132? Happy to give it a try. Also, here is the 2nd video I've uploaded, its a bit briefer and the CPU wasn't fully idle because it was still intialising since it was only 25 seconds or so since it had booted into windows. Hopefully this video is...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    110% certain its booting from the correct drive. Another interesting discovery, upon noticing the issue starting, I opted to simply click the 'restart' button instead of hitting 'shut-down' and waiting a minute or so for it to cool down. This actually crashed my PC while it was booting back up...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Okay, so all of yesterday my PC ran stably and had no BSOD's or CPU overheating on idle issues. However this morning, first thing the machine does is the exact same CPU overheat right to 90c before the system shuts down again. If it happens again this morning I will try to record it - in...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Yeah the video was initially for a friend to have a quick peek, which is why the quality is so atrocious haha. I've done all those checks, the pump and fans all are working great. So I took the advice of one of my friends which was that with these kinds of things, when we've exhausted most of...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Nope not a mistake on your part, I haven't mentioned my rig's details. I run a Ryzen 1600 currently OC'd to 3.75GHz @ 1.3250V, EVGA GTX 1070 FTW, 32GB of GDDR4 RAM @ 2933Mhz on a MSI B450M Mortar mobo. Boot drive is a Samsung 860 EVO 1tb, with 2x 2tb HDD's for games etc. I think thats...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Yeah. Either way I'm trying to get it to crash again so I can get a memory dumpfile, but now of all times its not crashing hahaha. In the meanwhile I'll just check out some more of AMD's software and see if there's some other drivers etc I could be installing.

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Y Yeah hehe sorry about that, it was a whole week so I did try quite a few things ^^. Hard to remember all the stuff I tried. I do agree though, at this stage a clean install of Windows seems like it may be the best course of action, though I'll need to wait a week since I am currently on a...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    This is one of the big reasons why I'm leaning towards software issue over hardware, when I ran the computer in safe mode without networking it ran for a couple hours, completing the scans I wanted to do before I restarted it back into normal mode. I'm guessing that would indicate a virus or...

    [SOLVED] PLEASE HELP!! Very strange CPU issue, cant figure out if its faulty hardware or some sort of virus/malware.

    Hello, yeah I forgot to mention that this issue still occurs when the PC has the factory default BIOS setup. Though I haven't tried idling on BIOS yet! The radiator fans and the like I cleaned out at the same time that I reapplied the thermal paste, so that would have been around a month ago...

    Hi thanks for the quick response. I have a Nepton 240M liquid cooler and the compound I reapplied around a month ago from a brand new thermal compound pack.
