Hello,
Spec:
i7-2700k @ 4.7Ghz (OC'd by PC Specialists) watercooled
GTX 980
P8Z68-V
8Gb Kingston 1600mhz
Last night while gaming (4-5 hours worth) my machine unexpectedly cut power. On reboot, the Bios load warned of an overheating CPU. Within the BIOS the CPU was 53c, so I restarted the machine once again and the following occurs each and every time:
1. Machine begins to boot, cuts power
2. Auto boots again and BSOD 'IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL'
3. Auto boots and dispalys 'Repairing Windows 10'
4. Repair stops and displays BSOD 'ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY'
At times, this message also briefly appears 'Detecting drives: Done; No drives found.'. This displays for a fraction of a second then continues to the BSOD.
I'm stuck in this loop now, unable to load windows.
The thermal paste hasn't been replaced since I bought the PC November 2011.
Does this look like a Windows error? i.e. Shall I try reinstalling Windows 10 with USB device? Or does this look like a damaged piece of hardware?
Thanks
