Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Okay, I know this is really old, but I did say I'd give an update. It took two months for them to fix the problem, with most of the fault going to the manufacturer and to FedEx. When manufacturer received laptop (because the laptop failed several tests on AVADirect's end), chassis was...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Yes, I agree. I'm just really concerned about having done everything on my part to weed it out as a hardware problem and not a dumb driver conflict from a Windows update/re-installation. I'll be without a PC for about a month, I imagine, once I send it off to them. I will send it off when they...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Understood! I was afraid that idling at max frequency for several hours was bad. Thanks for clarifying. So this must be the reason why the idle temps are constantly so high, even in just the BIOS it runs at max frequency with fans. Unfortunately I can't lower the temps in this case then.

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Sorry for so many posts. Is there a possible problem with why Windows would tell the CPU to run at turbo boost all the time even with all programs closed? Are drivers responsible for controlling this? Or could it be linked to hardware? I've posted this to the HWiNFO forums as well to ask Martin...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Interesting. So, should I attempt to reinstall? I used the media creation tool for that with the option to remove everything. I tried it four or five times. One was through the Windows itself (in the settings) where you can refresh the system by reinstalling and deleting everything. Another time...

I see! Well, I don't know. If the BIOS didn't run the fans as it should have and the thing over-heated, that should be covered by warranty, right?

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

But how can ~12 year old games (from 2008) running on partial resolution overheat the laptop? Is that really possible? Video running in the game (as I mentioned before) would crash at a particular point and cause a BSOD-like shut-down. And Victor Vran crashing immediately after starting up and...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

I was just wondering if there's any possibility that there are left-over window files. I saw that even on a fresh install, some stuff was left in my games folder, even though, it seems, all programs for the most part were uninstalled. Idk. I use a cooling pad and the fans do work... most of...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Here's an interesting update. I let Victor Vran crash. Then I restarted the computer by pressing the shut down button (power button) and waited for it to shut off completely with the power button method. It then rebooted. Now I can get into the map of Victor Vran (by pressing "F"), but Nvidia...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

In another thread on another site, I showed what nvidia reports. I think you'll want to see this. This is Fur Mark being run for ~3 minutes. And the values are blank, as you can see. I don't know why. They flash back and forth. This issue seems to be a problem even with GPU-Z. It will blink on...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

All right, so... no BSOD, no memory dumps. Here's what happens when I let the game, where I press "F" to access the map, crash on its own by waiting on it crash itself. The fans shoot through the roof when it happens until the computer goes into a "shutting down..." screen and then, 2 seconds...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Well, here's the memtest result. Nothing unusual. Took a friking 6 hours to finish! I'm going to try to deal with the ram sticks now by trying to swap slots and then try individually to see if there's "too much ram" or something.

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Ok. I'll try your suggestion of exchanging the ram slots. Then I'll try single slot of ram. If that doesn't work, I'm going to see if they'll take it back or I'll find other ways to get rid of it. The thing is useless. I got it for making 3d models but it can't even do that without crashing. I'm...

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

:eek: Ok. Any way to prove that then? Or no? I'll have to call them then and see if anything can be done... or this laptop is going for the recycling bin. I'll take out the ram and HDD and off to garbage it goes.

Constant system crash related to nvidia? Windows 10 BSOD

Ok, I will wait for that. Oh. I don't know if that's possible since the support at the laptop building place had me do a complete system reinstall with latest media creation tool in hopes of fixing it, saying that I "need to reinstall directly to 1903 instead of upgrading"... It worked. For a...
