Hey!
So yesterday I opened up a laptop (Lenovo Ideapad 330S-15IKB with a GTX 1050) to fix an issue with it's keyboard. While fixing the keyboard I also replaced the thermal paste on the CPU and the GPU just because I had to clean it up anyway.
Now today when the laptop was used for gaming, it started getting the BSOD with the error "WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR", since it's a hardware issue I started testing the hardware one by one until I started getting the BSOD again when the GPU was under load with FurMark. The error also didn't generate any dump files.
Running FurMark, the temps reach around 87C before the fans go 100%, after which it falls back to 82C-84C. The BSOD usually comes when the temps are falling from the high point after the fans go to 100%.
Another thing I have noticed after the keyboard fix is that the laptop has started making a clicking sound randomly. Not sure where it's coming from, but I know it's not a HDD as system only has SSDs, nor is it the fans as they are running fine with nothing obstructing them.
I have tried the following.
Luckily the keyboard works fine now 😀

I have tried the following.
- Taking apart the laptop and assembling it again. (Once after I reseated the power connector to the motherboard the BSOD took a lot longer to appear than usually)
- Repasting everything multiple times
- Driver updates
Luckily the keyboard works fine now 😀
