Random restarts, never seen BSOD, Kernel Power 41
Hi all,
I have a newly built computer (custom build), which has been plaguing me for awhile now. Built it, and did not seem to have issues for a few days, but within the first week, started suffering from two main issues. The first to surface was that when I told it to shutdown, it would shutdown and then within 5 seconds reboot. I could deal with that, but soon after it started randomly shutting down.
When I say random, I truly mean it. I can be doing anything, after any length of time, from 1 minute after startup to about 4 hours. It happens under load, as well as completely idle. I've tried many of the suggestions here, so I'll provide a list of what I have already done:
1. Shut down Fastboot
2. Removed power options from any user interface device stating that the device could turn on power
3. Ran memtest86+ - passed once
4. Replaced PSU
5. Removed all Hard Drives save the OS SSD. Completely reinstalled windows on SSD, and only installed the graphics driver and mobo drivers. Still occurring.
6. Run sfc /scannow - did not detect any issues.
7. used DISM restorehealth - says it fixes an issue with the component store. (Did this both before and after os reinstall)
I have pretty much removed heat as a suspicion - I've sat with hW monitor going and watched every temp sit between 27-33 C - and it still shuts down.
Computer Stats:
Windows 8.1
Asus Strix Gefore 970
8gb Crucial Sport 2400 DDR4 (1 stick)
MSI x99 SLI Plus Mobo
Seasonic 850w PSU
h100i Water cooler
Samsung 250gb SSD
I will attempt to upload my logs using my desktop, if I can stay on for long enough.
