Hey, until about April, my computer was working great without any problems at all. But since I installed a Windows update around then (I don't even know which one because I wiped and reinstalled the OS many times now), all my games started crashing with errors 0xc0000005 and 0x80000001. I tried everything on the internet, tested every single piece of hardware independently, and found no issues there either. The only thing that happens is when I try to play a game or update my AMD drivers (the installer crashes with the same errors too). Would it be possible you could help me find a solution I might not have noticed? If needed I can also send over an msinfo file, error screenshots, or any other files that might help. Thanks a lot.

Fix your post so everyone knows exactly what hardware you have and which computer system it runs on. Tell us the power supply maker and model, how many watts it has, when it was made, if it's in working shape (like brand new or used), if you've been using it hard for games or video editing, or even for mining crypto coins. Check your hard drive makers, models, capacity, and how much space is left. Now turn the computer off, unplug everything, take the case apart, wash out all dust and junk bits. Look around with a light and touch things to make sure every card, cable, RAM stick, jumper holes, and plug in are screwed tight. Shine a bright flashlight to check for cracks or other damage.

Hi Ralston. Thanks for getting back to me. Here are the specs: Motherboard is MSI B550 A-PRO, CPU is Ryzen 7 5800x3D, and GPU is AMD RX 6650 XT. RAM is four sticks of Kingston Fury with 4GB each, all set to 3600 MhZ. I ran Memtest86 on them and found no problems. The SSDs are a Samsung 980 1TB (about 727 GB used out of 931) and a Kingston NV2 500GB (about 152 GB used out of 321, with Windows installed on it). The Page File is set on Drive C, ranging from 16GB to 32GB. My PSU is a Corsair CV650 rated at 80+ Bronze. I am using Windows 11 Home version 22H2, which was installed back on June 27th, 2023. Everything has been new and is one year old. I haven't tried mining or doing video editing; it's mostly for gaming and I don't think you ever used it hard. Just casual gaming. I took the whole thing apart and put the parts back together, making sure they were all firmly in place. I also cleaned the dust out about 1.5 weeks ago. The CPU was repasted and put back on with a new cooler (Corsair iCUE H60i), but the problem started before I changed it. There are no visible signs of damage on any parts. I did clean things up roughly two weeks ago.
