I have a new PC, just 3 days since delivery that crashes all the time. Spec is below. The crashes can happen at any time, even at the log in screen. However, at times it has run for over an hour without crashing. At no time is a BSOD or any error message produced.
The supplier support has asked me to increase the CPU VCORE TO 1.25v which I have done. Still it crashes.
I have gradually installed all Windows updates that I can in between the failures. There are 10 updates that fail with a Code 80073712 error. I have tried to correct this by running DISM.exe but often a crash occurs when this is running.
Be really grateful for any guidance. I've been at this for nearly 3 days and am exhausted!
