Really don’t know if this is CPU related or if it is another component, so apologies if I need to move it.
Just installed a new air cooler last night, and now the system won’t go without freezing, or blue screening.
I’ve tried reinstalling the OS, but I can’t do that without the same problems again.
The CPU also comes up in the BIOS, and all settings seem to be fine
Could this just be a bad mount on my part, making the CPU overheat or?

Try replacing thermalpaste.
