Hello people, last few days on my pc were an absolute nightmare. I keep getting random freezes, blue screens, and resets. The freezes usually get relaxed if left alone, but if I push things like task manager or ctrl alt del, then I am immediately bsodded or reset. Does mobo aging do this? What exactly happens when a mobo nears its death?
Why I "kinda" ruled out the other parts:
Can I have your thoughts? There is no excessive heating in any of the parts, the pc usually behaves when left alone, or even when under load like playing games and such. Nothing really happens during performance hungry games. Or casual stuff, like I'm typing this right now, there's nothing wrong. But there's also no guarantee that it won't freeze 2 minutes later, so let me post this.. Thanks in advance.
Why I "kinda" ruled out the other parts:
- not a year old ssd is probably not causing this,+ i checked its health via software, and it looks good, although there is a slight problem with data transmission sometimes, which i believe i linked to some aging on the port of the mobo?
- brand new ssd, literally bought yesterday, probably not causing this.
- a very old hdd, but there is no system related stuff on that disk, just games and software, and all of which run butter smooth. even high performance games
- probably not the cpu, again i health checked and it passed all tests, besides it never heats to an unsafe degree
- RAM: did not entirely rule this out, it's the only piece of hardware as old as the mobo, but i've read some stuff about what happens when rams fail, doesn't look like it.
- psu: quite recently changed, probably not the issue.
- i've tried different cables to connect the disks, to see maybe it was a cable issue, nope still happens with all kinds of cables.
