Short n' sweet, been having random OS crashes that occur after a reboot sometimes. The pattern is after I'm in windows and open a prog, sometimes I'll get one of two scenarios.
1. EXPLORER.EXE crash, need to look at the module it claimed caused it in event viewer (always changes)
2. Total crash, where nothing will respond, can open task manager but can't close, services and everything in that tabs is empty. Still able to move mouse no BSOD.
Things I've tried is repairing windows (don't want to reinstall unless it's 100% needed), check my drives for errors (no clue how to do that for an SSD, which could be the problem), and memtested for at lest 24hrs on std, 5, and test 8 and no errors,
Been still testing for the possibility my oc magically became unstable but it's been in prime95 for 10hrs so far and I had it at these clocks for about a year 24/7 so still thinking it's not OC related, but not 100%.
Checked for viruses too btw, nada and it's been god knows how long since I installed something, It initially started when I had problems trying to install SP1 and it kept giving me an install error so needed to repair windows and that magically did the trick. Note it's been crashing even before I tried to install SP1. It's unpredictable and most of the time if it's been running for weeks it'll keep going until a reboot THEN act dumb again. After another boot 90% of the time it'll run like nothing happened.
No clue as to where to go next and this is driving me up a wall. Anyone got idea's?
(Going to finish 24hr prime and see if it fails)
