So my pc has had this problem for awhile.
I've figure out recently that one of my memory sticks was busted.
But it still crashes(or)bsods occasionally when idle. And then fails to boot 0xc000000e error code Windows Boot Error.
Then if i turn the pc off and on again it starts just fine.

Heres a link to a dumpfile from a crash.

Hello... anytime you move hardware around you should do a CMOs reset... wanna try that?

Take your time here and be slow and careful to your MB... look in your MB manual/Pdf for pictures and location of the SW/pins. B )

1) un-plug PS from wall.
2) remove MB battery
3) place jumper pins/switch on MB to clear the capacitors... for ~3 mins
4) remove Jumper/switch
5) re-install battery

Look in your manual for the correct RAM slots you want to use/test for "Dual channel" OR "single channel" operation with this MB.

6) re-move and re-seat your RAM stick(s) into the MB slots.
7) plug monitor into the MB video output
8) plug in PS to wall
9) Boot computer.
