Question Random BSOD over multiple weeks.

[Wubbington]

Good Afternoon,

Back in Jan I had some BSOD problems that were resolved by updating the BIOS. Since the 18th of this month though i've had periodic BSOD that I just can not seem to narrow down.

At first it seemed to be gaming related as it would occur when i had two different games up - so reinstalled GPU driver
Computer would randomly reboot without a dump or a BSOD - replaced power supply.
Lots of BSOD that some said could be memory issue - ran mem test for 2 days

Next thing i may do is try replacing motherboard and then memory and then GPU if that still doesn't resolve the issue. I hate to throw money at the problem because this system is around 2 years old, but this is what I work on, do school work on, and spend free time on. That said the GPU was used when i bought it (couldn't find a 3000 series for resonable so got a used 2070 Super).

What two different games?

What error codes, warnings, and even informational events do you see via Reliability History and Event Viewer?

Especially any that occur just before or at the time of a BSOD/

I've been running Stellaris and Wow lately but its happened when playing BF5 as well.

I know this sounds sorta dumb, maybe idk I'm not really that knowledgeable on BIOS and all the other things.

Anyways, I had the same issue like a year ago. I had like 3~ish BSODs every month. turned out my CMOS battery was going bad. Basically just check if it's your CMOS battery going bad:

1. The laptop has difficult booting up.
2. There's a constant beeping noise from the motherboard.
3. The date and time have reset.
4. Peripherals aren't responsive or they don't respond correctly.
5. Hardware drivers have disappeared.
6. You can't connect to the internet.
7. (which isn't there but) Random BSODs
