Hi,
over the last 7 days Ive been experiencing unforced shutdowns of my system.
I checked the event log and its related to a critical event: Kernel Power, Event 41, Task category (63).
I had a look on the web and their are loads of "fixes", but I havent come accross a thread that led to someone saying the prob was resolved.
Anyhow this is what Ive done so far:
1. Possible driver problem - No messing about: reformat SSD and HDD - reinstall Win 7 and basic software (mobo/gpu) -
2. Possible Mobo/GPU/PSU problem - reset mobo back to standard settings - run OCCT test to check CPU/PSU/GPU - No errors -
3. Alter power management plan so pc doesnt sleep/hibernate -
4. Set power plan to high performance
5. Change power management on new gaming keyboard , swap keyboard to make sure (paranoia)
6. Check no duplicate audio drivers.
7. ran Unigine Heaven to give the sys a shakedown.
Its quite frustrating because I cant narrow it down to hardware or software.
On the 3/1/2013 it powered down (and restarted) with this error 10 times between 01:25am and 10:52am, however it had stayed stable
prior to that and hadnt powered down since 15:16 on the 2/1.
So u see it appears random (nothing is random in computing) with the time stamps and no pattern emerging prior to Error 41.
I hope someone can help as Im reluctant to start ordering parts when I dont know what the problem is.
Many Thanks
