Last year for Christmas I upgraded my computer with a new GPU, CPU, Motherboard, RAM, and SSD, a few months before I replaced a faulty power supply. The computer ran without problems for months before I begun having seemingly random WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR BSOD. I have tried almost every possible fix, I replaced my RAM, purchased a new SSD and moved all my main programs, I tried different random software fixes that people suggested on different forums online, nothing has worked.
Almost every time the BSOD happens, my event logger reads a Kernel-Power, ID 41 critical error. Almost always, 4 seconds before this critical error, there is a volmgr, ID 161 error, which I am assuming is the error causing the blue screen. At times this error does not show up before the critical error but 75% of the time, it occurs 4 seconds before a crash. I am a university student so hardware trouble shooting is very tough, I have went through different support through windows or other websites, and after all testing I am almost always told it is a hardware issue. Through my research into the error, I cannot find a single precise hardware problem that would be causing the issue.
Because this error happens almost completely at random, at times going weeks straight with absolutely no issues, into 4 back to back crashes in a single day, I find it nearly impossible to trouble shoot the hardware problem myself. The way I can see myself fixing the issue is by individually switching out every single part in my computer, and waiting potentially weeks to verify if the fix worked.
I have nearly given up trying to fix the issue myself, and I am praying someone on this form may have a fix, or some way to identify which component would be actually causing the issue and absolutely any help would be greatly appreciated.
If I need to provide picture details of the event log errors, I will be happy to do so.
