So my computer has been repeatedly blue screening me, at the most random times, all with the same error: WHEA_Uncorrectable_Error.

Sometimes it happens when trying to play games, and sometimes it happens just with chrome open and videos playing. It also happens within 10 minutes of startup sometimes, so it's not overheating.

I attached links to some minidump files from today and 2 days ago, hopefully someone who is computer savvy can look at them in a debugger and figure out just what the hell is causing these crashes.

Looking at the dump file, its a bug check 124 error which usually points to the cpu. If overclock settings were changed in the bios, they might need to be reverted to default.

10 minutes is more than enough time to overheat a cpu. You can cook one off in seconds with the wrong settings.

I can check, but this isn’t a relatively new Pc build, so I’m not sure how far back I would need to go :/
