So 2 days ago I was installing Guild Wars 2 and I tried playing it while it was on 1% out of curiosity and I got a blue screen and that was stupid from me but today, all i did was touch the PSU cable thats connected to the socket then it turned off. I turned it back on then it gave me a blue screen and turn off again then turned on. What seems to be the problem here? I tried scanning for driver updates and I needed to update 2 drivers, SM Bus controller and the USB controller but when I try to update them it says no drivers found. I don't think this is the problem because I haven't updated them since I built the PC and everything was fine. Please help,

For starters, I would not recommend running the PC without a ground wire.

Since you also said you touched the cable and the PC shut off, you could have a loose connection somewhere. I would start by fixing any loose power connections you may have.

You could have multiple problems. I would start with addressing the physical issues like the power cable. If you touch your power cable and the PC shuts off, you should make sure its plugged in all the way or replace the power cable first.

My socket is not the one with 2 holes. It's with three and I had to get a supporter for it to work. I'm talking about where you plug the cable in the supporter and plug the supporter in the socket. And can that even cause a Blue screen?

I just downloaded BlueScreenView and the crash was caused by a driver called ntoskrnl.exe what do i do now. I apparently has a crash the day I built my pc but I don't recall it happening. All 3 crashes were caused by the same problem.

One of the most common issues with PC's not functioning property is the power quality. If your PC crashed a lot due to a poor power quality or suddenly shutting down, it could cause software related problems or even damage to your hard drives file structure.

The first thing you need to do is address any power issue your having or you will probably just continue having the same problem.
