Hello everybody,
As the title says my PC is frequently crashing and having Blue Screen of Death.
The computer is custom made and the specs are:
The crashes and blue screens have started since September of last year, but have been more frequent from February of this year. I didn't search for much help because I was more concentrated on Uni stuff but since now I'm on vacation I decided to try to fix it.
When the pc crashes it doesn't turn off, it just freezes and I can't do anything, needing shut it off or restart by pressing the On/Off button of the PC. The last 3 blue screens (the ones which I took a picture and noted) codes are:
When the first blue screen happened I tried to fix it by searching on google and so on. Updated the drivers and followed a guide. It seems it had to do with AMD drivers. On the next day the 2nd blue screen happened and later on the same day the 3rd one (I was playing CSGO on those last 2 ones).
The computer is 4/5 years old. It had been working well until September (when I thought it was just some random things, might had to do with some win10 software updates) and had been very bad, to a point which I can't really enjoy some games, being constantly interrupted by this crashes, on these last few months.
I thought the problem had to do with the PSU but I was not sure since the fans and lights on the hardware were still running when the crashes happened.
EDIT: I also remember a blue screen of death with the code IRQL_LESS_OR_EQUAL something like that.
Thank you. (Sorry for my English, it is not my native language, any miscomprehension please ask so I can try to be more explicit)
PS: Sometimes when I play Citites Skylines the game crashes, but not the pc. I think it has nothing to do with the other problems so I didn't metion it before. Just putting it in here in case it can help someone figure it out.
