my PC is having a really bad hard lockup with no bsod randomly thru out the day and i did over clock my north bridge from 2200 to around 2800 with stock voltages which did cause random bsod and forgot about it but after i put it back to stock speeds the bsod screen gone away and i may have a malfunctioning north bridge so im curious can the north bridge cause system lockups with out bsod

so i did some test after i had some time to actully focus lol

i replaced my memory with good memory i stole from my gf pc lol but still locked up so i put my memory back in and then i got a new laptop hdd to test my desktop with and used acronis to copy my ssd to the hdd which was very successful i might say didnt think it would work but it did but i got immediate results from the new drive. i checked the event logs to see when the last time it froze up and what do i see File System Filter 'npsvctrig' (10.0, ??015????0????9T21:40:23.000000000Z) has successfully loaded and registered with Filter Manager. right after start up and no system freeze up idk if this is to early in my test but i think my ssd is trashed which every test i ran on it says its heathy but im going to leave my desktop on for atleast a week with out restarting unless i have that will be a full out test of the new drive

But i spook to soon it locked up on me over night with the new drive with the same file system filter so now im testing it with windows 8 then upgrade 8.1 from windows 10 to see if the issues tranfers from os to os on another drive if so my mobo is bad but if it doesnt then i would suspect the ssd has failed unless im wrong with that therey

but the cause is File System Filter 'npsvctrig' (10.0, ??015????0????9T21:40:23.000000000Z) has successfully loaded and registered with Filter Manager

after some test with the new hdd with 8.1 its still locking up idk what else to check

outlander i have tryed that and still freezes up i have tryed both set of ram and i even tryed the ram in another working pc and used the working pc ram and still freezes up and the working pc doesnt freeze up so the ram isent the problem i have already gone thru trial and error and i am down to it has to be the mobo or cpu

the ram is already set to 1.5v by deflault in the bios
 
You can test if there is damage to the processors memory controller by reducing RAM speed to a 1333 MHz xmp profile.


You could also try underclocking the processor by reducing the multiplier to see if that will make a difference.

Third thing to try is checking the PSU voltages are stable

ya i no thats why the memory is defaulted to 1600
if your saying the fx8350 cant handle 4 sticks at 1600 then there is somthing deffently wrong with the cpu b/c the fx4300 my gf has i over clocked her memory to 1864 stable with 4sticks of ram so that tells me the cpu is trashed or defective currect

wanted to update that i switched out my fx 8350 for jmy wifes fx4300 now this will tell me if the board or cpu is bad im also testing my fx 8350 in my wifes pc she has a different board but same brand name
 


Im saying this is a thing to check .

The AMD memory controller is only rated for 1866 Mhz with 2 sticks in dual channel . With 4 sticks that drops .
Intels are the same .
Just because 1 chip can do it doesnt mean they all can

i checked my wifes pc event viewer and she was having some issues when running the fx8350 even got the same file filter lock up but knowning my wife she cant remember if she her pc ever locked up or not but there is evedience that it did in the logs so im going to have to get a cheap cpu
