I've been tinkering and looking for a solution for my problem for 4 days straight and I'm stumped. I've searched this forum for solutions to similar problems but it gives no errors on tests and I'm running out of ideas. This is a new setup I have built and fresh installation of Windows 10.
My desktop crashes randomly and reboots itself without any warning like a fresh press on the reset button. Usually reboots on average 15minutes. Everything is new besides the GPU , PSU, and HDD which has no issue before my upgrade.
Specs:
CPU: i5 6500 6th gen
Mobo: AsRock H170 Pro4
Ram: (1 x 8gb) DDR4
gpu: AMD HD 7800
hdd: Hitachi 1TB
OS: Windows 10 (no product key, free version)
PSU: Coolmaster 450W Bronze
What I have tested from what can cause these crashes are:
1. I changed my PSU to a different one with 500W - same issue
2. moved the RAM to a different slot (it is situated at slot 1 now) - same issue
3. ran the Windows Diagnostics Tool for Ram test - no errors
4. checked the event log - no critical red or yellow... there are numbers on how many crashes happened but no details or something I can click to
5. updated all my drivers to the latest after installing the mobo cd disc included - same issue
6. checked the temperature - cpu is at 45C playing Torchlight 2 and 27C on gpu. Yes, it is cold in my place right now.
7. checked "defer feature updates" on Windows 10 to prevent auto rebooting from windows update - same issue
8. followed the instruction from a youtuber about seeing the "Woops there is a problem in your computer" with a big
on Windows 10... it is not showing anymore but the same issue still persist on random rebooting.
9. Tried to not run any games and left it there to idle my GPU. - same issue
10. Updated my GPU driver to the latest - same issue
My next step is to reinstall Windows 10. Can this cause a random crashing from a corrupted OS?
Anything you can give me to run some tests or an outright say on what the problem is (I really wish)? I appreciate any thoughts! Thank you.
UPDATE: I went to Safe Mode and left my computer for 2 hours and it is not crashing! I am now in the process of reinstalling windows. My question would be why this is happening? I only installed the essential Mobo disc and GPU driver and nothing else at first.
