  1. GPU or PSU problem?


    so before you read this just be aware, i don’t know the most about computers. i’ve recently been trying to learn through troubleshooting this issue. i bought a prebuilt which i know is looked down upon, but in the 3 years of owning it i haven’t had issues with it. i did replace the motherboard, doubled the ram, and added 2 fans. the issue ive been having is i’ll be playing a game or even browsing the internet sometimes, and both my monitors will lose connection to the pc. i’ll still usually be able to hear the game or video audio. the only real way to get it working again is to shut off the pc

    :)

  2. BSOD before new GPU and PSU, more BSOD afterwards

    (yes I asked chatGpt to make the post for me for fun!)

    Hello Microsoft Community,

    I recently upgraded my GPU and PSU, hoping to improve my system's performance. However, I've been encountering a significant increase in Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors since the upgrade. Prior to formatting and installing the new GPU, I did experience some occasional BSODs, which I attributed to driver errors. Since I had planned to format my system anyway, I didn't investigate further at the time.
    I also encounter a lot of frame rate drops, mostly while playing games but also during normal usage.

    Here are the details of my current situation:

    1. New GPU: I purchased and installed an AMD 580x GPU.
    2. PSU Replacement: I replaced my old PSU, which was approximately 10 years old, with a new one.
    BSOD Error Codes I've encountered:

    1. MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
    2. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    3. PAGE_TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND
    Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

    1. Memtest86: I ran Memtest86 from a USB drive, and it reported zero errors.
    2. System File Checker (SFC): I ran the "sfc /scannow" command, which detected and fixed some errors.
    3. DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management): I executed the "DISM /cleanup /restorehealth /cleanup-image" command to ensure the system image was in a good state.
    4. Chkdsk: I ran a disk check using the "chkdsk" command.
    5. Disk Repair and Defrag: I performed disk repair and defragmentation.
    6. Driver Updates: I updated all drivers using Windows Update, and I also downloaded and installed the latest AMD drivers for my GPU (AMD 580x).
    Despite undertaking these troubleshooting steps, the BSODs persist with greater frequency than before. I'm reaching out to the community for any guidance or suggestions on how to resolve this issue.

  3. Can minidump files detect a psu problem?

    The minidump suggest it’s a gpu problem. I’ve already submitted them before. Would it say say gpu, if in reality it was psu problems?

    PSU/GPU Power Problem


    Maybe the problem is somewhere else on the motherboard, then?
