Question BSOD occurs when the PC is idle or performing minimal tasks.
Thank you for your assistance. I accessed the MSI BIOS, checked under CPU settings and found all states are set to Auto. But turning off SVM and C-States in the BIOS, along with removing the AMD power plan and switching it to Windows Ultimate Performance, significantly improved the situation.
It's good to hear that AMD power plans are no longer required. I'll keep my PC on Windows Ultimate Performance until I'm confident it runs smoothly without BSOD errors (or at least with few). Once stable, I'll switch back to the balanced plan to check.
It's worth checking if these problems appear in Safe Mode. Safe Mode runs a minimalized version of Windows, loading just essential services and drivers. Usually, no extra third-party programs are present. If the issue persists there, it's likely a hardware problem.
I can attempt this.
I've found that the modifications I made have significantly lessened but not completely stopped the BSOD crashes – although HYPERVISOR_ERRORS have disappeared. I plan to use safe mode, but it might be necessary to keep it on for several hours, and maybe extend it for a few days to see if the issues persist.
I've tried my best to determine if the problem lies with hardware. MEMTEST86 and CHKDSK show no errors, GPU performance appears normal, and I can't detect any overheating in the app. Power supplies are harder to eliminate, but calculators indicate everything is fine.
I will test safe mode and report the outcome once I know if crashes continue. Thanks again.
The price has gone up a bit, possibly with more heat and fan noise. If you don’t mind the CPU always working at full speed, that’s okay... I prefer it running cool when it’s not doing anything for me. Share any new dumps you find, they might give us more insight.
So I attempted to boot Windows 11 in safe mode to check for freezing or BSOD issues, but after six hours it didn’t crash. Running safe mode isn’t very helpful here, so it doesn’t completely eliminate the possibility of a hardware problem, though it suggests a software-related cause. The most recent BSOD I experienced just before trying the safe mode test was IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, and I’ve shared a zipped minidump file for reference. I also have a Kernel dump of the same event, but it’s about 254 MByte and might be too large to include.
It could be better for Ubuysa than using minidump. I noticed larger files being uploaded. Just draw a line at a few GB though. I need to set up a new VM to convert them because I only have 30GB of space and it’s easy to fill up with Windows alone, making large dump files a current issue... the next one should be 100GB, that would fix the problem.
