Hi guys,
I'm posting this topic because I've been experiencing unexpected problems with my PC in the past few weeks and I really don't know what to do. This is what happens (I'll try to make it as clear and as brief as I can):
- Every 2-3 days I face unexpected crashes of my PC with no apparent reason. PC just restarts randomly after a rapid BSOD even when I'm not doing anything and it gets stuck on the BIOS without letting me start Windows over again. The only way I've found to get past this issue is to alter my System Performance setting (directly from BIOS) going from "Normal" to "Asus Optimal" or vice-versa.
- I haven't been able to spot any actual problems with my system but taking a look in the "Events Visualizer" (hope this is the right translation, I'm Italian) I've seen that every crash coincides with a Kernel-Power Error 41. I have no idea what this means and, obviously, don't know what to do to solve the issue. Can crashes and this error be connected?
This is what I get looking into the Kernel Error 41

What's more is that I found a Kernel Boot Error 29 going on every single day for the past 2 weeks. This is what I get:

And just to add some more info to all this, I've found out, through the Reliability Monitor, that every shutdown of the system is recorded as a "Incorrect shutdown of Windows" (once again I'm providing a litteral translation of the Italian message I receive).
Could someone help me out on this? Thanks in advance!
ps. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro, on an Intel i7-4790 CPU 3,60Gh with 16GB of RAM and a GeForce GTX 780.
