Hi, recently my computer crashes with a BSOD every time it starts. I’m using Windows 11 (version 10.0.22621.2428), but the issue occurs on Windows 10 too, and it also happens when using a live USB. My system has an Intel Core i5-13600KF processor, a Palit GeForce RTX 4070 Ti GamingPro graphics card, and a MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI motherboard (BIOS version E7D32IMS.HM1). The latest BIOS is installed, but previous versions had BSOD errors. RAM is OCPC Pista RGB Titan MMPT2K32GD552C36T 16+16 DDR5 at 5200MHz. DIMMA2 uses Micron MMPT2K32GD552C36 with 16 GB, and the current DRAM size is 32768 MB. Storage type is unspecified. Default BIOS settings are XMP OFF, Game Boost Mode OFF, OC disabled. The 64-bit OS remains unchanged. Reinstalling Windows didn’t resolve the problem. Please assist.

I suspect there might be faulty RAM here. Two of the dumps encounter a critical issue with 0xEF (CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED) during bugchecks, which usually points to a hardware fault, often related to RAM. The fact it occurs across different operating systems also hints at a hardware problem. The other dumps could likely be caused by basic RAM issues, so I’d begin there.

RAM testing tools such as Memtest86 will take a long time on a 32GB drive and prevent you from using the PC during testing. They can never detect all problems, but a more reliable approach is to remove one stick for a few days or until another crash occurs. Swap it with another stick and run for a few days, stopping when another BSOD appears. Ensure the single stick fits in the correct slot on your board (usually A2).

Check the results.

Thank you for your response. I ran MemTest86 and MemTest86+ on each RAM module separately and as a group, yet no issues were detected.

update bios (you are 12 versions behind)
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-Z690...pport#bios
after the update, if you manage to boot windows, disable virtual memory to remove pagefile.sys, then reactivate it.
next, install the motherboard drivers that match your BIOS version.
each bugcheck completed in under 30 seconds with stable system performance. does this appear accurate? if you believe the process lasted longer, a power-related issue could be causing the CPU reset.
regardless, proceeding with the bios update is the recommended next action.
bugchecks included: reading registry, executing Windows error reporting, stack guard
likely conclusion is that the BIOS requires an update and your current drivers are up to date.
(unless motherboard power protection circuits were activated, only a suggestion would be made—your system seemed to run beyond 30 seconds prior to the checks)
