System shuts down unexpectedly without error or data loss
System shuts down unexpectedly without error or data loss
Details: CPU model Ryzen 1700x, Motherboard msi ab350m, GPU options GTX 970/RTX 3070, RAM specifications BL2K16G32C16U4B. Issue began months ago without obvious cause. Screen freezes briefly with buzzing from headphones when audio plays, followed by automatic reboot. No BSOD appears, no memory dumps generated despite testing all settings. Crashes occur randomly, even when idle or during gaming/video editing. Temperatures normal during use. Event logs show errors like Bus/Interconnect and Cache Hierarchy issues, but system restarts don’t follow. Attempted fixes: swapped GPU, changed RAM slots, reinstalled Windows on another drive—none resolved the problem.
Occasionally the system restarts about ten seconds after power-on for the initial day, and temperatures remain typical even under high demand.
Hi, I understand your concern about the gaming laptop from 2019. It seems like after several random restarts, the system isn't creating a dump file properly. You've experienced BSODs during reinstallations but not always, and sometimes you can play games without problems while other times it fails. You've checked temperatures, RAM tests, and diagnostics, all showing normal results. Your guess about hardware issues is reasonable. I think replacing the RAM and SSD might help. If the problem persists, it could be related to the motherboard or graphics card. Have you tried any fixes yet? Good luck with your upgrade!
