BSOD Watchdog Breach Report
BSOD Watchdog Breach Report
Random GSoD situation. From my basic understanding of these problems—using Event Viewer and a dump file—I think Ubisoft Connect or Bonjour Service OS might be involved. Possible suspects include Ubisoft Connect or Bonjour Service OS on Windows 8.1, 8, 7, Vista. Windows 11 Pro Version 21H2, OS Build 22000.978, x64. What version was originally installed? Windows 11 Pro Insider Build (previously an insider release, I recently reset to the latest Windows 11 Pro x64 build). Is this a factory-installed version or a full retail purchase? System age – about four years. OS installation timeline – you’ve reinstalled it recently. Installation date: 08/31/2022. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT. Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080, MSI Gaming X Trio. Motherboard (if not a laptop): MSI Meg Ace (MS-7C35). RAM: 32GB (4x8GB) Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB at 3600MHz. Power supply: EVGA Supernove 850 G+ (850W). Manufacturer: N/A. Device type – desktop or home-built. Extra details – Antivirus installed. Additional info – DxDiag.txt attached if helpful. Extra notes – I previously ran sfc /scannow, Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image, and similar tools. No BSOD/GSOD minidump was found. Before switching from the Insider build to the release version, this problem didn’t appear. My setup stayed the same; most software matched, yet no crashes or memory dumps. I tried sfc, Dism, system health checks, and restoration options. Extra info – The issue vanished after a restart. If it happens again, I’ll share updated links and logs. Your help would mean a lot—preferably to avoid another reinstall and the same trouble. DxDiag.txt is attached for reference.
What RAM setup do you have? Is XMP activated? You're encountering this issue when using your 3800X with a 3600MHz 2x16 GSKILL kit—your system halts if XMP isn't enabled. If it works at 3200MHz, further diagnostics are likely needed, possibly involving a memory test like MemTest.
I'm attaching my RAM kit to the post. It's not Intel, so XMP isn't applicable, but I think X-amp is possible. I'll also check and work on a memtest. I'd like to find the issue instead of overclocking the RAM. AMD CPU performance depends on RAM performance. Edit: RAM added
I run the same CPU for testing, which is a common method to determine if it's the root cause. The performance drop is minimal, but stability drops with even small changes. If reducing the frequency doesn’t resolve the issue, check 3200 and then 3000—if it stabilizes, the problem likely lies with the RAM setup or board configuration. The Ryzen 3000/5000 can be quite sensitive, especially with multiple RAM sticks. I recommend giving it a try.
The majority of extra vengeance beyond the Vengeance RGB Pro range stays weak at 3000 series or lower, with the 3200mhz standard. The memory controller in the older Zen design is quite basic. If you prefer maintaining performance, consider reducing CAS latency or boosting voltage.
Yes, it remains your suggestion. For the adjustments, please let me know the recommended latency and voltage changes.
