Question XTU Auto settings unstable - where to start troubleshooting?

Today I tried slightly overclocking my 13600KF, just for the fun of it. I launched XTU, and since I wasn't looking at a very significant OC, I figured the automatic settings would be a good place to start. It gave me a P-core ratio of 54, an E-core ratio of 43 and a voltage offset of 0.002. It seemed to be stable in games, and Cinebench, but when I tried to get an OCCT stability certificate, it bluescreened 2 minutes into the test with a "Root error" message. What would be the best way to troubleshoot this? From what I've seen online, most people are using Vcores around 1.3 for overclocks above 5.3 Ghz, but I'm really not sure.

Thanks for the advice!

uninstall and reinstall XTU and don't use auto settings. Auto settings tend to be unstable.
