    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    Used a new Corsair HX850 850W. This fixed all my issues. No crashes anymore. So in conclusion: after retuning my first faulty Corsair CXM 750, the replacement was faulty as well. Thank you for your help.

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    Yes, it's gotten quite long. Thank you very much for your help so far. GPU power limit set to 58%, core clock -23. CPU in Eco mode (45 watts) It ran Furmark&prime95 for 1:30 mins instead of 5 seconds before crashing. I guess that's an improvement... Anything else's I can do before ordering...

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    Yeah, it's fully stable and fine along as I don't stress it. (Although I haven't let it run for a long time since the reinstall). The only issue is the regular crashes while gaming. And I can replicate those with running FurMark and Prime95 at the same time. Last night I took it out of the...

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    Just reinstalled windows on the SSD. Only 3 things I did was: Downloaded the GPU driver, prime95, and FurMark. Crashed just as fast. :( Will try an install on the hdd. Will order a new PSU after that. Guess lightning strikes twice and I got two identically broken PSUs... Or more likely its a...

    Still crashes. Will do the clean install. But not much hope. Nothing has really changed. Thank you for your help so far though.

    Do you think I should install Windows on the SSD again? Or in case that is the issue install on the HDD? I guess I have to bite the bullet and do that. Remove the SSD completely and make sure that is not the issue. :(

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    Thanks for your replies. My access to the Windows education licence has lapsed (seems really stupid to me that this is a thing). So for the next clean install, I can't use it anyway. I'll see if a different version helps. I just ran DISM Scanhealth. It returned " The component store is...

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    I use a Bluetooth USB adapter. Removed it and still get the crashes. I think it did stop the 'local adapter' warning from being listed this time. Removing my network card didn't help either. The windows education is just because I can get a free licence from my uni. From a quick google, it...

    Hi all, My PC has been shutting off and restarting when gaming since I first built it a couple of months back. There are no error messages, screen freezes, visual glitches or anything. Just a simple restart as if I pressed the off and on button. Event log: The previous system shutdown at ... on...

    [SOLVED] Event 41 kernel power while gaming, by now built two separate PCs with identical faults

    When I run FurMark and prime95 simultaneously my pc crashes immediately. However not when run individually. Does that indicate its still the PSU despite it being swapped already?

    Question Hard crash while gaming with a new PC build. Lost on what to try next.

    Hi All, I'm having some hard crash issues with my relatively new PC build that I was hoping I could get some help with. These have been occurring since the first assemble a few months back. My PC will spontaneously hard crash (turn off and restart with no warning) while playing some games...
