I’ve been having this issue where my computer randomly blue screens on me while playing games or in idle. Me and my friend decided it was probably a driver compatibility issue since I’ve recently switched from intel to Ryzen. So we decided to give my computer a clean reinstall of windows and see if that would work. But while trying to install it, my computer will randomly shut off and reboot as if I just restarted it. I switched out my ram with a different kind, same issue, made sure all of my connections to the motherboard is correct, same issue. Used a spare hard drive I had to install Windows there instead of my SSD, same issue. One thing I think might have happened unfortunately is that when I was trying to install a new aftermarket CPU cooler, I might have applied a little too much force on the cpu to get it clipped in. I later found out the cooler wasn’t compatible with my mobo and swapped it with the stock cooler. So now I’m theorizing the issues may be my PSU, CPU, or my mobo. Really stumped on this one.
