Already ran chkdsk multiple times after getting back into my PC yesterday. It finds zero issues. But yes, I have a HDD.

Well I checked Reliability History and the only thing that could have caused an issue is this: The weird thing is that this is noted as being on the 10th, shortly after I actually booted windows up and everything was already fine. Maybe this was a late error report that windows threw out...

Well I checked the event summary in Event Viewer and uh.... There's absolutely nothing there under Critical aside from the expected Kernel-Power from the BSOD's. I'm at a complete and utter loss as to the cause of this. link (The site won't let me post the link normally so just remove the space)

Already did the SFC and DISM thing - neither found any issues. I'll have a look through reliability history and get back to you though. EDIT: Where do I find reliability history?

Well, I'm back online and on my PC. I booted up 10 minutes before midnight on the 9th in order to test and see if the issue really does only crop up on a certain date, and sure enough, that does seem to be the case. 10 minutes before midnight, my PC crashed with the critical error as expected...

Thanks for the suggestions. I did try to boot into safe mode with networking to use the command prompt, but ran into another BSOD while it was loading up - "IO1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED" Yes, I've tried to run chkdsk from the windows recovery screen, but it need admin permissions to actually...

Well, a month later on practically on the same day, the problem has started again. Was watching YouTube yesterday when the video I was watching suddenly began buffering. Went to right click the internet connection icon on the taskbar to troubleshoot, then my PC locked up, threw me an error...

UPDATE I believe that my errors were stemming from overheating, either of my CPU or my HDD. After cleaning an ungodly amount of dust from my front case fan (where my HDD is located) as well as clearing the dust from my heatsink, I have turned my PC on and it is running significantly quieter and...

As I suspected, that was indeed the wrong minidump. If I recieve the CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED BSOD again I'll make sure to nab that file ASAP.

Here is the link to my Minidump. This might not be the correct one however, so let me know: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19cKAn9f8I1WDqF1fG-I3Ho-DTL8G0Oqx/view?usp=sharing (I say this might not be the correct one because I've had a Driver Verifier BSOD after trying to use it to help resolve...

Hi guys, I've ran chkdsk multiple times and also the windows memory test - I can confirm it's not an issue with my HDD or my RAM as both came out with zero issues on the tests and are apparently healthy. I do have a Windows Dump File that I can upload. It's almost 1GB so I'll post it as soon...

Update 2: I've just received a completely new BSOD error titled "KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED" and the culprit was a file called amUstor.sys - which, after further research, seems to be USB device handler. Could this be the root cause of my problems?

Update: after changing the SATA slot on my HDD and leaving my PC off for awhile, I have been able to get back into windows. I have now been using it with no issues for the past 10 minutes, however I haven't launched chrome once. I have a feeling that Chrome may actually be the culprit here somehow.

So, for some context: before today, I haven't experienced an issue with my PC beyond the common, easily resolvable issues. However over the course of the day, I have received four/five blue screen errors, all if which are listed as CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED. The first time I received this error, I...
