Dec 17, 2015I was getting a random reboot about once every 36 hours, this is the 1st time I got a BSOD before rebooting
All I was doing when the BSOD hit was listening to music using Spotify
I've replaced the power supply and reinstalled windows. I also ran Memtest86+ no issues reported

Random Shutdown / Sometimes Reboots - No BSOD Or Memory Dump Files
Oct 13, 2015I have been fighting with my computer for about four weeks now, and I am not getting anywhere. In a nutshell, my computer started to randomly shut down and seldom reboot. There are no specific patterns I notice, except that when I try to find out what's going on the random reboots/shut downs happen more frequently (3-5 time per hour). When I just use the computer, it lasts longer without any issues. I may get between 1-4 hours. No BSOD and no error.
Now when the computer shuts down, it is a hard shut down. It is as if I turned off the power button from the PSU itself and turned it back because when I turn the computer back on, it turns on briefly and shuts down again, turns on again, beeps the all things okay beep, and boots to window. It is worth noting that this behavior started happening without adding any new hardware, software, or driver.
Here's what I have done so far to try to ameliorate/diagnose the issue.
1) I reset the PC - Here's my post on that issue if you want to take a look.
2) I did a clean install - (truly clean install).
3) I boot into the Bios, and it stills reboot/shut down (this causes me to suspect a hardware issue, but what?).
4) I open the case and ensure that everything is properly seated on the MOBO.
5) I cleaned out the PC of dust
6) My temperatures are normal, no overheating going on.
7) I ran ad-ware/spyware check - nothing has been found.
8) I ran a virus check (yes, with windows defender) - nothing came up. I don't think it's a virus since the problem continues even after a clean install.
9) It's not a lack of power issue. My PSU is 1000W and I am not using that much power.
10) I did a stress test for over an hour, and everything was normal (this causes me to doubt it is a hardware problem).
11) I am sure I have done more than the before mentioned steps, but I can't remember them all.
At this point, I suspect my issue might be hardware related; however, I really do not know what this could be, and I do not want to start buying new hardwares (i.e. PSU) without knowing what the issue really is, particularly when it endured a stress test without any issues. I thought of applying a thermal paste/grease on the CPU, but since I am not overheating I don't think that's necessary. So, I am at a lost on what my next steps should be. I am not savvy enough on reading memory dumps files... my computer is not generating any of those files anyway. But I know I can force my computer to generate them.
Frequent BSODs While Gaming
Sep 2, 2015Since a little over a week or so I have been experiencing frequent BSOD when playing games (these include Witcher 3, WoW, CSGO....). The main ones that show up are:
-Memory managment
-PFN_List_Corrupt
-System_Service_exception
Sometimes it only crashes to my desktop but overall they are very frequent and quite annoying. It occurs both when I have several programs running at once but also when only a single program is up. The computer is new, have only had it for around 2 months.
My drivers are all up to date, I have run virus and malware scans which have not come up with anything. The errors to me seem to point to a RAM issue (although I quite honestly know nothing about these things) so I ran the windows memory diagnostic which did not come up with any errors.
My Rig is:
Windows 10 x64
AMD FX(tm)- 8350 eight core processor
NVIDIA Geforce GTX 970
Crucial 8 GB Sport Ballistix 240 Pin DIMM DDR3 PC3-12800 Memory Module
Dump File : 090215-24546-01.dmp
Crash Time : 02-Sep-15 7:30:47 PM

BSOD Frequent Gaming
Jan 11, 2016During gaming, I get constant BSOD's with similar error messages. It usually occurs within 5-20 minutes. The computer then reboots and another BSOD always occurs again after i login to my computer. Subsequently another BSOD usually occurs straight after this and completely turns my computer off. These BSOD'S include page non fault, iqrl, memory management, system thread exception (all of the top of my head). I can't recall it happening whilst not gaming and thus I assumed the problem would tend to the GPU which is fully updated. I also ran memtest with a return of no errors and also took each RAM out at a time but still got the error so RAM shouldn't be the problem. I've updated every driver in device manager.

Desktop Icons Need Frequent Refresh
Jan 12, 2016Running a one-month old clean Win 10 install.
I find that my desktop icons frequently lose their shortcut symbol (the little white square with curved blue arrow), or otherwise change. I haven't tried to figure out when or why this happens. It shouldn't. An icon, once placed, shouldn't change.
The fix is to right-click on an open spot and select "refresh".
Networking :: Frequent Limited Connectivity?
Dec 10, 2015Basically every time I turn on my laptop (1year old) , after a while (1 hour or even 5 minutes), connection turns limited on every other device in my house! The only thing I can do is to turn off and on my modem.
It ONLY happen with my notebook. I have tried to update/reinstall the Wi-Fi drivers, I formatted a couple of times, I even asked HP to look at it and they replaced my wireless card.. Nothing seems to work. I even purchased an external Wi-Fi adapter, and even with that, after 3-4 hours I had limited connectivity!

BSOD :: Frequent Crashes Upon Regular Use
Nov 25, 2015I have had no problems what so ever with this computer running Win 7 Pro for a very long time (2+ years) and when I moved to Win 10 Pro I get these BSOD Critical_Process_Died crashes while browsing the internet using Fire Fox. After the BSOD it will reboot and I can use again but then after a while (maybe an hour) it crashes again. I have recently updated to Win 10 and all drivers were at that time updated. I have to admit I wish there was a better way to determine when a new driver is available for your hardware.

View 6 RepliesQuick Access Mixes Frequent Folders And Recent Files
Feb 23, 2016I've learned to like the "Quick Access" feature of Win 10. Recently it has shown a strange trait. That is, instead of listing my "frequent folders" in a list in a pane at the top of the window and "recent files" in a pane at the bottom at the bottom of the window (in a separate pane), both "frequent folders" and "recent files" show up on the same detail list (in a single pane).
Likewise, the entries are all sorted by name instead of (recent) date, as I would like.
See image:
Here is a sample (imaged grabbed from Internet) of how it should look. ("Recent folders" in a separate pane at the top and "recent files" at the bottom. This is how I want my Quick Access window to look again.
How can I get Quick access to once again separate the "recent folders" from the "recent files"... and make them sort by "most recent date first"?
By the way, I tried "restore defaults" but that was to no avail.
PC Reboots Itself
Aug 17, 2015Ever since I've upgraded to Windows 10, my computer randomly reboots (from hibernation mode). Once it was exactly at 3:00 AM, the other were random times. The spookiest of all times was when it randomly booted, I shut it down, and then it booted again five minutes later - two times in a row. I took a look into the Event Viewer, and the first events are as follows (I have to freely translate as I haven't been able to make my German Windows display the events in English):
- System time was synchronized with the hardware clock
- The firmware has sent start metrics
- In this system there are 0x1 start options
- The start manager waited 0ms for a user input
- The guideline for the start menu is "0xFEC00000"
- The start type was "0x2"
- The system got reactivated from standby. ... [some timestamps] ... Reactivation source: unknown
This has happened more than once (although I can't say for sure that this was always the reason for the unprompted reboot).
I know there are some options to prevent Windows from rebooting, but firstly I'd like to establish the causes as I'm kind of unsettled right now....
PC Reboots While Its Booting Up
Jun 6, 2015My Windows 10 installation does not boot anymore, the PC reboots while it's booting up. I have tried every advanced options available (safe mode, low resolution video...) to no avail. I tried enabling the bootlog but I cannot find the log file when I eventually browse the disk from my windows 7 OS.
I'd like to restore the installation rather than reinstalling it. The build was not the very last one but the preceding one, so not so old.
PC Reboots Once After First Startup Every Day
Oct 6, 2015Once every day after first start up my pc decides to reboot, and it seems to be quite random at which time it reboots. Can be just when I enter windows or after 20 minutes. Then the power goes back on for a sec and it tries to start but then in an instant reboots again and then it runs fine for the rest of the day. I have not done extensive testing on different components and since I dont get a BSOD I dont really know where to start and since it only happens once a day I can only test one solution every day .

View 1 RepliesWake From Sleep - Laptop Reboots Itself
Jan 27, 2016I have an Asus Ultrabook, UX302L. It came with windows 8 from the factory, I upgraded it to windows 10, all nice and wonderful. About a month ago, I replaced my HDD with an Samsung 850 Evo SSD and I installed a clean copy of Windows 10 which I activated with my windows 8 key. All good till here. But after that my nightmare started:
I can't put my laptop to sleep, because when I try to wake it up it restarts instead, and I lose all my documents, programs started before, etc.
I tried to install a older Intel Management Engine because I found out that the last one is buggy (and it is, I can't even put my computer to hubernate with it, the fans just keep running till it drains my battery, but with the IME 9ish at least hibernation work), I tried to disable fast boot, to install an older version of the integrated intel graphics card driver, tried to put my HDD's to never sleep, disabled hybrid sleep, set the AHCI link power management to HIMP/DIMP, etc.....
Performance :: Reboots ( Restarts ) Instead Of Shutting Down
Nov 9, 2015A number of Windows 10 users have various shutdown-related issues. The most common issue is that their PC reboots instead of shutting down. When they click shut down in the Start menu, Windows 10 doesn't shutdown, but instead restarts. Here is what you can do to avoid this issue.
Actually, it is hard to tell what is the exact cause of such behavior, because the reason can be different from PC to PC, but in this article we will explore some solutions which can be useful if you are facing this problem of your PC rebooting instead of doing a shut down with Windows 10.
1.The first thing you have to try is a clean boot. Using a clean boot, you can find if the OS is damaged by some third party app or a bad driver. By preventing them from loading, you can exclude the influence of these two factors.

BSOD :: Crashes And Reboots Two To Three Times A Day
Sep 19, 2015First off my windows 10 install worked fine for about a month and then all of a sudden I have been experiencing 2 to 3 ramdom crashes and reboots. There is no BSOD, the computer just simply turns off and reboots, even though I have set the advanced settings not to automatically shut down on error. I have also updated to the latest BIOS ....
My system - self build.
Asus X99 Deluxe motherboard
4 sticks of Corsiar dominator RAM running at 2133 (they are specified up to 2666)
default BIOS settings - no overclocking
2*EVGA Geforce 980s in SLI
I have disconnected all usb devices but this is still happening. What is strange that it just started out of the blue. Before i just do a fresh install, any diagnostic approaches?
PC Get To Loading Windows Screen And Then Reboots
Dec 6, 2015Every time I switch on my PC I get to the loading Windows screen and then my PC reboots, it only does this once and on second boot it boots into Windows fine, even tried a fresh install on Windows and it's still the same, can't see anything in the event log only this.
The last shutdown's success status was false. The last boot's success status was false. All drives are up to date, PC running fine with no issues apart from the above, I don't use sleep or hibernate and power to the PC is switched off from the mains.
Possible To Disable Auto Reboots For Updates?
Aug 21, 2015Wondering if this is possible on Windows 10, Not delay, to DISABLE AUTO reboots when a user is logged in ?
When I am done doing someone on my PC, I just kind of walk away, it goes to sleep, the monitor shuts off after about 25 min, so I just hit the space bar and I am back to where I was. This is always how I have used my computers at home and I need to continue to this way. I DONT want to hear, SAFE YOU FILES, CLOSE your Programs, etc, That is how YOU USE YOU computer, not mine.
So after installing Windows 10, it just takes it on it's own, no setting I have found to disable it, I am ok, with Windows yelling at me "reboot me !!!" ever few hours but, taking it on it's own to reboot over night is a problem.
2 times now I have lost something that was open, One was a game I had minimized that I forgot about before I went to bed and lost my progress.

Loading Screen / Go Black Then Reboots
Oct 23, 2015So a few days ago I installed Windows Vista after Windows 7 wouldn't work and I couldn't figure out how to fix it. Vista worked fine, but after a day I somehow managed to shut off the pc while it was updating. I thought it wouldn't be that bad, but it was. When I booted Vista, it would show the normal loading screen and after that the screen would go black for 1 minute. Then the pc reboots itself.
I thought I could fix this by putting Windows 10 on a cd and installing it, but it didn't. At first I got an error from my monitor saying that Windows' resolution was too high for my monitor (my monitor's max is 1024x1080) so I went into safe mode and changed it.
I thought it would finally work, but again it didn't. It showed the same error from Vista; normal Windows 10 loading screen, goes black, reboots.
Performance :: Reboots After Logo Then Black Screen
Nov 23, 2015My basic specs:
CPU - 5960X
MOBO: ASUS Rampage V Extreme
GPU: GTX 980
I turn my computer on, see the BIOS just fine, it shows the Windows 10 logo, then a black screen. If I move my mouse around, I see the cursor. After nearly 30 seconds (i'm guessing), my computer reboots itself, and the cycle repeats.
My motherboard is kind of funky. By pressing F8, it actually goes into a BIOS menu that allows me to select which device I want to boot from, instead of going to Safe Mode. This is what I'd like to do, actually, so I can choose my last known good configuration.
Is there any other way to get to this screen to choose my last known good configuration, can I use a USB flash drive and boot to it to get to a repair screen or what course of action should I take?
Intermittent Reboots / Hangs (no BSOD Or Dump)
Oct 29, 2015I am running Windows 10 (64-bit), but this problem also occurred on 8.1 and 7 (both 64-bit) with clean installations. I am also dual booting Ubuntu Studio 15.04, but more on that later.
When I boot my PC into 10, I have up to ten minutes before my PC either resets forcefully by itself, or freezes and never recovers. When I check the Minidump folder afterwards nothing is there.
I have replaced both my CPU (amd fx-6300) and PSU (corsair cx500m), and tested my RAM (with both sticks or just one), but none of that has fixed the problem.
My BIOS settings are at their defaults, no over/underclocking or over/undervolting at all.
The odd thing is, Ubuntu Studio runs fine with no crashes as far as I can see *EDIT: NOT THE CASE* , but if there was a software problem surely there would be a dump file?
