Hi All

My PC has been blue screening for the best part of a year, I have done a clean install and updated drivers with no success, i have also replaced the motherboard and the PSU this is still crashing if not in power saver mode.

Some of the recent crashes are: RESOURCE_NOT_OWNED SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED IRQL_NOT_OR_LESS_EQUAL

Does anyone know the cause of the BSOD' or why power saver mode seems to get around this?

please see minidump files: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vdm968kkl71qlj5/Minidumps_Copy.zip/file

Thanks

include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time. PSU is brand new, installed yesterday, BIOS is from 16/06/2021

The new PSU is 1000w, the previous one was 750w, i thought this may be an issue with power but this doesnt appear to be the case

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:

I have done a clean install
Where did you source the installer for the OS?

i have also replaced the motherboard and the PSU
Like for like replacements or pseudo upgrades(replaced with another brand)?
 
check temperatures

to have a look what the problem could be:
run userbenchmark.com and post the http link of your result, e.g. https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/28977730

Reset the BIOS by jumper clrCMOS or JBAT or similar (eventually you will have to set the boot priority correctly after that)

check windows integrity
open the command prompt as administrator and type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

clean boot


check the memory by running memtest.org usb autoinstaller (bootable USB flash drive)

run the RAM @2133MHz to check if it happens then too

check the hard drive for errors with its manufacturer´s tool and if available, update the firmware

use ddu uninstaller and reinstall the latest graphics driver

I think the most likely cause of your BSODs is bad RAM. The clues that lead me to this conclusion are the varied bugcheck codes in the five dumps you uploaded. The only thing that all these dumps have in common is a memory access problem.

There are two ways to test your RAM...
  1. Remove one stick for a few days and see whether the BSODs stop. Then swap sticks and try the other stick for a few days. You have 32GB of RAM in two sticks so this is an easy test to do and is the one I would recommend.
  2. ON ANOTHER PC (Because we can't trust yours) download Memtest86 (free) and use the imageUSB.exe tool extracted from the download to make a bootable USB drive containing Memtest86 (1GB is plenty big enough). Then, on your PC, bot that USB drive. Memtest86 will start running as soon as it boots. If no errors have been reported after the four iterations of the 13 tests that the free version does, then restart Memtest86 and do another four iterations.
