Just updated my initial post with PC specs. Corsair HX750 PSU should be more than enough power for the system.
I've been monitoring my cooling on and off since I started getting the crashes. Temps run in the upper 20s to mid 30s. I don't THINK it's an overheating issue. For it to crash in the...

So, yesterday while my PC was more or less idle (had...
Thanks. Yeah, I knew the basic difference between PWM and DC fans. Just didn't understand why Fan Xpert could do things the BIOS couldn't.
I'm closer now, but the ASST fans won't go below 60% even though they could with FanXpert. All the fans are the same model and I was able to set them all...
Old forum post, but same thing I'm dealing with.

I guess I needed to run the fan tuning under Monitor in the UEFI first so it could detect low end speeds, but it only does it for Chassis Fans and not Assist...
I recently uninstalled AISuite, which I used exclusively for fan speed control via Fan Xpert. It allowed me to make my 3-pin fans much quieter than what I'm getting now that I am using BIOS alone. In the BIOS, the lowest I can go is 60% fan speed. If I switch to PWM mode from DC mode, some of...
Gotcha. I'm going to watch it for a while now that AISuite is removed and NetExtender is upgraded and see if it does it again. If so, I'll move into testing RAM among other things. I'm hoping the problem is solved, though! :-)
Thanks for the help!!!
Weird. I wonder why WhoCrashed named NetExtender, specifically, as the cause after reading that same dump file.
I have not run memory testing. I had read that DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE didn't usually imply ram. But I guess it's possible.
I ran WhoCrashed on the latest dmp file. It indicates SonicWall NetExtender as the cause. That's the VPN software I use for my office.
Now that I think about it, it was throwing BSODs while I was working from home. Hasn't BSODed since Feb 22nd.
Do you guys concur that it's probably the cause? I...
Well, I tried the Driver Verifier steps and it BSODed on reboot. I did the system restore from the flash drive to get back into Windows. Said it was successful while still booted to the flash drive. After restarting, Windows looked like it was continuing the system repair. Then it said it...
Cool. I'll update the Logitech drivers.
The Epson scanner is getting some age on it. I have to use an older 2009 Win7 driver for it: https://epson.com/Support/Scanners/GT-Series/Epson-GT-20000/s/SPT_B11B195011
Perhaps a Windows driver would work for it, but I don't know if it'd be full-featured...
The History did show errors, though I don't know if heads or tails can be made of it.
I have a deadline I'm working on, so I'm going to wait on the other steps you mentioned until I get some things done today.
Thanks!
Yep. I do have a Snowball Mic. I also have:
