[SOLVED] Computer crashes sporadically, either full lockup or BSOD with system service exception error

[chasew95]

I have been battling this issue for a while now and can usually replicate the freeze if I launch hearthstone and play for roughly 5mins. Other programs are hit and miss for causing the freeze and i've been able to run memtests, 3dmark and other diagnostics with no issues. Ive fully replaced my PSU, ram, and tried new hard drives. I have also updated my drivers and reloaded windows several times.

motherboard bios on latest release / PSU ???

Bios has been updated and I had a 650W corsair PSU in there and replaced it with a 550w spare to test. Issue still remains. I don think Id be over the power threshold, but correct me if im wrong. I have not added anything to my computer to increase the draw before this started happening.

could try https://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed might give us a clue as to what is causing it.

Thank you I will try this tool. I’ll report back once I make it to my PC.

I tried running it after a crash and got this;

crash dump file: C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP
This was probably caused by the following module: ntkrnlmp.exe (nt!memset+0x450DD)
Bugcheck code: 0x50 (0xFFFFF80069000000, 0x11, 0xFFFFF80069000000, 0x2)

This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

any thoughts on why this would occur? I am not really smart on these things. From what I am reading it could be the cause of bad memory but I've replaced the memory with fresh sticks / isolated it. I dont think it would be the RAM?

Did u check the ram slots on ur motherboard...??? Bad ram slots also can cause such issues... i have seen this happen with a corrupted motherboard after random voltage fluctuations occurring in one's neighbouthood...

How would i verify the integrity of the slots themselves? I moved my RAM to the different slots and tested. Are you saying visually check them? I just ran one more memory diagnostic and it returned with no errors.

Try with a single stick of ram on each slots and check , check every stick and slots one by one...
