Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Please clarify what you mean by a hard reset. Do you refer to the power button on your case? Are you using Windows 10 or 11? What BIOS version is installed on your motherboard? How recent is your PSU?
You are experiencing a BSoD message and have provided your .dmp file(s) for review. Once we examine those, the PC should function normally.
It might be wise to back up all mission-critical data and attempt a repair of the OS.
Ensure the motherboard runs the latest BIOS version. Also, verify that your Intel device drivers are completely updated using the provided link. After Windows begins, execute DISM and SFC to maintain its integrity: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...em...6e85d4094e

Thank you for your messages, sirs.
Initially I purchased this PC used, so I don’t have precise details about the component ages except that the RAM and M.2 drives are new. I installed every driver from the motherboard websites.
I performed a full PC hard reset by holding the power button on the case until the system shut down.
I’m using Windows 11 and have updated the BIOS recently—version 1825, 12.81MB, updated about two weeks ago.
I verified the Intel drivers and refreshed the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi drivers.
DISM completed without errors, and SFC reported no integrity issues.

Yesterday I encountered a new blue screen. While looking up the error code on my Mac, the PC shut down automatically.

P.S. When I was typing this, both the keyboard and mouse stopped working. I unplugged the USB connections and reinserted them; the RGB lights indicated charging but no connection. After restarting, everything functioned properly.
This is the first occurrence after several restarts at the start of the day.
Are you trying to push your system beyond its limits?
Do you have a copy of your important data saved?
It could be the right moment to start fresh with a complete, clean installation of Windows.
Obtain the newest installation file straight from MS. Complete the setup. Remove all current partitions.
Thank you, I'll wait a while and if the issue persists I'll reset everything and reinstall Windows.
I began the PC using only the USB keyboard and encountered the same issue.
Some new events occurred:
The PC started without a display and shut down on its own.
After the next power cycle it remained on but without a screen.
It entered AMI safe mode due to frequent restarts.
Then I accessed the BIOS and reset it to default settings, adjusting things like Fast Boot.
I inspected all cables connected to the motherboard, re-seated the RAM, and applied new thermal paste.
I believe the problem isn't hardware-related, but I've done my best so far.
I'll see if the issue continues tomorrow.
It's strange but I began the PC in the morning everything worked well and then it shut down unexpectedly. After returning from work, I restarted it and everything was normal again. No issues detected.
The thermal paste appeared dry, which shouldn't be the main concern for this kind of problem.
The cables seemed okay after my last check yesterday, so I didn't address any of them.
The reason for the problem was that I left the power supply without the electricity cable connected overnight and also turned it off using the PSU switch. Since the PSU is inside the case, it wasn't completely powered down for a while, which might have caused the issue.
