Hi

My Dell T3500 Workstation sometimes succumbs to a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD and then gets the same BSOD every time I try to boot it for a couple of hours. Any ideas as to how I can get to the root of the problem?
 
Solution
Have you tried following the steps I mentioned? Pressing f8 (or shift +f8) on the login page? (assumes Win10)
To get to the memory diagnostic tool, just type MEM in the search bar and select the Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool.
Also re-seat your devices (ram sticks, video card, power to the video card, etc)
This is caused by failing hardware or more commonly a driver error.
Have you installed any drivers recently? Uninstall them.
Are you overclocking? Set everything back to default in your bios.
Have you booted in to recovery mode (f8 on startup) and checked your eventviewer logs and driver versions?
Have you run Windows Memory diagnostics?

Hi, thanks for your reply

The BSOD occurred before I installed drivers and I'm not overclocked.
Please advise on how to do the others.

Thanks!
