Hey, you encountered a blue screen with error code 0xc0000428. Check the Windows documentation for BSOD codes to understand what happened. If it’s a critical issue, try restarting your PC or using System Restore. For more details, search the specific code online.
BSOD may occur due to various reasons. I’d begin with the basics: is your PC overheating? Download HWiNFO, launch it while playing a game or running a benchmark in window mode, and check the temperatures. If they’re normal, run a RAM test that can detect errors if RAM is defective—this could also involve the CPU or motherboard. Ensure all drivers, firmware, and BIOS are current. Also, verify that Windows isn’t corrupt; if necessary, format the OS.
Additionally, BlueScreenView and WhoCrashed provide further details about the BSOD. The Windows reliability monitor also offers insights.
Thanks for your assistance. I cleared everything, restored the PC, and it functioned properly. Then I ran WhoCrashed and observed that the issue was likely related to memory.

Agreed. I'll perform a RAM test to confirm. If issues arise, ensure the BIOS is current. Once updated, verify the fix; if not, attempt to disable XMP/DOCP settings and check if that resolves the problems.
The manual doesn't explain much, but you need to activate the Q-Flash function in the BIOS. You can do this by pressing F8 during startup. Usually, the steps are: download the latest BIOS, save it on a flash drive formatted as Fat32, connect the drive via one of the USB-A ports, restart your system, and then use the Q-Flash menu within the BIOS settings.
