the windows 11 pc has been repeatedly stopping over the last couple of weeks
first time I faced this problem with random crashes (BSOD or troubleshoot screen mentioned srttrail.txt issue which I couldn’t solve in the event viewer). While testing the bf6 open beta, a few days later I encountered the same issue again. I took it to a local repair shop who diagnosed it as a RAM problem. They removed one of the faulty modules (while also claiming I had a virus) and performed a fresh Windows installation with my consent. When I brought it home and tried to use it for a short time, it still shut down. Recently, I bought new RAM and the same issues persist… specs: motherboard rog strix x570-i, cpu ryzen 5 5600x, gpu evga 3060 ti xc, old ram 32gb corsair vengeance lpx (ddr4, 3200mt), new ram 32gb kingston fury (ddr4, 3200mt), psu corsair sf750, storage samsung 250gb and 500gb ssd, sandisk 2TB sata ssd.
Usually, shutdowns happen because of overheating or power problems. I’d monitor temperatures during idle periods if Windows remains active long enough for you. Another approach is to run the system using a different power source if Windows doesn’t stay on long enough to check the temps.
Considered unstable voltage issues or CPU overclocking attempts. RAM seems checked already. Possibility of PSU failure—review system stats via HWinfo while applying stress. If instability occurs, PSU might struggle to meet demand. Note: Always uninstall GPU drivers fully and reinstall. Run 'sfc /scannow' from admin prompt to detect Windows corruption.
Indicates a possible Windows corruption issue, which may occur unexpectedly or after crashes. It raises concerns about data integrity. At the forum's beginning you'll find a BSOD troubleshooter that can collect dump files and recent system events.
