Problem with PC game crashes and blue screen issues?
Problem with PC game crashes and blue screen issues?
Here is your text rewritten with varied phrasing while keeping the original meaning and tone:
I’m starting from the beginning...
My setup includes a motherboard - PRIME Z790-A WIFI, a GPU - MSI GeForce RTX 3090 SUPRIM X 24G, a CPU - Intel® Core™ i9-13900K Processor, a CPU cooler - NZXT Kraken Z73, RAM - G.Skill Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-6800, a power supply - Be Quiet! Straight Power 11 1000W Fully Modular 80+ Gold Rated, an SSD - Crucial CT250MX200SSD1 250 GB, another SSD - Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB 2.5 inch Solid State Drive, and a M.2 drive - Force Series Gen.4 PCIe MP600 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD / 2TB WD Blue SN550 M.2 PCIe 3. My case is O11 Dynamic Glass Mid Tower, I use 6x QL120 Corsair case fans, and a RGB stimer from Lian Li Strimer Plus Series 24pin.
All parts are brand new except for the drives, which have been in use for several years. I experience blue screens when launching games like Tarkov or Tarkov Arena. I also face frequent crashes either immediately after booting or after a short period of gameplay, whether in the lobby or while playing. Other titles such as CS2, Helldivers, and Palworld are affected too.
There are some BS reports indicating - PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA x3 / Driver ntoskrnl.exe / Address ntoskrnl.exe+3fd5b0. Other crashes appear in the event viewer:
- Faulting application start time: 0x01da6c359989aabc
- Multiple faults in application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\ArmouryDevice\dll\MBLedSDK\NoiseCancelingEngine.exe (removed software)
Additionally, I’ve noticed recurring problems over the past 4 to 6 months.
I installed third-party software such as iQUE, NZXT, and GHUB. I also performed a fresh installation and driver uninstallation using DDU in safe mode, then reinstalled games on different drives.
Looking at hardware solutions, I’ve replaced the RAM multiple times, assuming that was the problem. I also swapped out the CPU, which resolved the issue. Both replacements came with the above components.
I contacted the manufacturer for an RMA regarding the GPU, suspecting it might be the cause. I found a discussion suggesting the i9 13900K may need underclocking due to game instability, and followed a guide on that topic. Now I can play Helldivers without issues, but other titles still struggle.
I also installed Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and adjusted the Performance Core Ratio from 55 to 54. I ran several memory tests on both single RAM modules and dual sticks.
Another issue I’ve encountered is that my Discord restarts when I screen share or watch a screenshot during gameplay.
I passed multiple memory scans (sfc /scannow) without encountering further problems.
I’ve been working on this for several months, with support from friends. Besides building a new PC, I’m still struggling. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
