Hello,
Specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B550-E
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Founders Edition
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32gb (2x16gb)
SSD: Corsair MP400 1tb NVMe
PSU: Corsair RM Series RM650 650W '80 Plus Gold'
Cooler: NZXT Kraken X53 AIO CPU Water Cooler - 240mm
OS: Windows 10
I built this system about 6 months ago. It has been working perfectly with heavy use since then. On Monday it randomly crashed, however restarted and was fine, an hour later it crashed again, and after that whenever restarted it goes into windows Startup repair – however none of the tools there appear to work, instead they say no administrator profile is present - so can’t do anything. Even command prompt won't launch.
I have run memtest, and that runs some of the first pass then fails. It never actually flags any RAM issues or errors. I can post the log file if helpful.
I have attempted to boot with a windows USB to reinstall – when I do that, it launches the installation/repair screen, but only ever for 5-10 seconds after which it dies again.
It happily launches into the BIOS if i do that, and there it does not crash.
Any thoughts on what might be going wrong?
Thank you any help much appreciated.
