Windows 7 Kernel Power error 41

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

Hey guys. THank you for having such a nice forum

I am getting the dreaded kernel error 41,63 . Any ideas on what it might be? Here is my log from event viewer:

The two major causes of this are failing PSU and bad RAM.

Testing RAM is easy, download Memtest86 and test your ram out and report back here.

will do and report back. I replaced the psu, and it died about 15 minuntes after that, so it is not the PSU at least

It means your PC power was cut or your system is underpowered... did your system restart itself or did you upgrade in the past?

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

YouTubeVillain :

Well, the system should not be underpowered with a corsair cx750 psu. Considering that I am running an i7-3770 and a gtx 970 and 8 gigs of ram

YouTubeVillain · Sep 29, 2016

And did it restart itself (without like saying that it will restart)?

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

YouTubeVillain :

Yes it does sadly. It has done it 10 times the last 24 hrs

YouTubeVillain · Sep 29, 2016

Then as Rogue Leader said you should run Memtest (if you manage to power up your computer), if it doesn't find anything... try to tell your system to never sleep:

YouTubeVillain :

Sleep states are not the issue, that PSU supports them.

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

YouTubeVillain :

Thank you for the youtube link, I will try that. So far the mem test has come up clean so it does not look like that is the issue

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

Rogue Leader :

The memtest came back clean

Rogue Leader :

I am not saying that this is the issue in this case, but it has been in many others, so why you shouldn't give it a try when you can always turn it back...

You should be able to disable those sleep settings in Windows 7, those are not specific to any other version.

Are you overclocking?

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

i am not overclocking no. My Gpu came with a 6% OC though (pre-owned)

Rogue Leader · Sep 29, 2016

YouTubeVillain :

I may have been wrong earlier, this is worth a try.

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

YouTubeVillain :

already told it not to sleep, apprently

Rogue Leader · Sep 29, 2016

So you replaced the PSU already, due to this issue?

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

i did replace it yes, but i sent it back after i determined that the PSU was not the problem.

shadowth56 · Sep 29, 2016

just tried the trick with afterburner, will see if that worked

Rogue Leader · Sep 29, 2016

What PSU do you have now?
