Windows 8 Crashing Every 5 Minutes

Hello, I have had problems here before and I got good help! So, now I am back. This time this problem is confusing me... Every five minutes I recieve the BSOD and it says critical_process_died. The weird thing is, I reset my computer back to factory settings and as soon as I booted it did it again... I got my computer to work for like 10 minutes and as soon as I thought it stopped for good, it did it again.

My PC sometimes crashes during bootup too.

Edit: I was just downloading something and halfway in it said something like "Failed to download and install files". Then the taskbar in the bottom of my screen disapeared and my computer got the BSOD saying "Critical_Process_Died"... This is frustrating!

Okay I now have to use my phone as my computer got a bsod 10 minutes into use and now continuously gets it in startup or as soon as everything loads up..

Don't say it's because of updated drivers because I reset my PC and it uninstalled all my updated drivers and now I can't even install them.


Edit: I added another ZIP File because now my computer just crashes so much and I can hardly do anything but rarely out of all the crashes it will show a BSOD.

Hi Jwest92 & Welcome to the forums ^_^,

Hi,

What step did you perform that led to this? Or did you start getting this suddenly?

Please see if you are able to get the drive recognized if you follow these steps :-
1. Boot up from your Windows 8 disc.
2. Don't click 'Install Now', click Repair Your Computer.
3. Click Advanced Options.
4. Click Other Options.
5. Click Diagnose my PC.
6. Wait for your computer to reboot.
Your computer has now an unlocked hard drive.
