Hello! I've been working on resolving this problem for several months with limited success. My computer has suddenly started displaying BSODs at random, often accompanied by memory or GPU errors. It used to happen daily, but now it occurs only occasionally. I’m not sure what might have changed. The crashes began shortly after assembling all the parts a few months ago (likely the first crash happened a couple of weeks later). Initially, I suspected a faulty Nvidia driver installation. After reinstalling it, the issue persisted. Then I reinstalled Windows, which seemed to fix things temporarily. However, a week later the BSODs returned. Feeling discouraged, I ran a memory test for hours, and the screen displayed many error codes. I thought my RAM was defective—good luck! I replaced it with a new set, and everything functioned properly afterward. My PC ran smoothly, and I felt relieved. But soon after, the problem reappeared. Mem testing showed the RAM was working fine, yet the error persisted. Sometimes the screen would freeze, sometimes the PC wouldn’t boot at all, showing a black screen with no output, and the keyboard lights stayed off even when it should have been on. I suspected a memory or GPU issue. I followed various troubleshooting steps: cleaned Windows, updated drivers, checked connections, verified temperatures, removed peripherals, ran stress tests, updated BIOS, cleared files, and more. Despite these efforts, the BSODs continued occasionally. I eventually learned that Nvidia Broadcast—a tool from Nvidia to silence background noise—might have triggered it. After uninstalling it, the blue screens stopped. I tried reinstalling it, but after about an hour, the problem returned. I was cautiously optimistic until I discovered the issue was related to Nvidia Broadcast. Once removed, the crashes ceased. I attempted a reinstall, and after some time, the BSODs resumed. I realized I couldn’t use Nvidia Broadcast anymore and could manage without it. It seemed my PC might be struggling with GPU or memory. I’m feeling defeated and desperate. I’m not very skilled with computers, but I really appreciate any advice or help you can provide. Thanks for reading—I tried to share as much detail as possible. Good luck! My Computer: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32GB 3200 MHz (XMP Profile) Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus Master x570 GPU: Asus TUF OC Nvidia RTX 3080 (stock only) SYSTEM STATUS: Attached below (zip files appear to work despite warnings).
