I did a clean install using DDU for my NVIDIA drivers. Still can’t figure out the issue and at the moment, I’m trying to learn how to read Minidump files. Would be a godsend if someone could help me figure this out. Context -> haven’t had a BSOD (and they were sparing) since September, and recently had an issue with my power supply. It ended up flicking on and off in quick succession until I plugged it back in properly. Since then, anytime I launch a game, it ends up BSODing within 1-3 minutes.

    hit the Windows + ‘R’ keys to open the Run dialog, and type in “mdsched.exe”.

    This will open a tool to scan your RAM to check for corrupted or dead RAM addresses (requires restart as it runs as the PC boots).

    After your RAM scan is complete, you’ll want to scan your core Windows files Windows + ‘R’ to open a run dialog, and type “cmd” to open a command prompt.

    Use the following command:

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Once that scan finishes, open the command prompt again, and use the following command:

    SFC /scannow

    The DCIM command will check your PC’s system restore partition to ensure it’s up-to-date and that nothing in it is corrupted by checking it vs the Windows Update servers. The SFC command will use your system restore partition to scan your Windows installation’s core files for any issues (hence why you scan/update the restore partition first).

    If the Power Supply is not providing enough load, that can cause system stability issues. They are always working before they are not so that is something you can try replacing.

    Regarding minidump files, I do not recommend sharing them online as savvy users can extract some information from them.
    You can use the WinDbg “Preview” from the Microsoft store to read your mini dump files. If the issue is power related, the minidumps may not be as helpful.

      From how things were worded, it sounds like the power cord was only loosely plugged into the power supply, and just needed to be reseated, not an actual power load issue.
