Bsod whea_uncorrectable_error

xtbs · 24 Mar 2016

Alright, Ive had a good run of bad luck with bsod recently this one though has been pretty bad.. im averaging 4 crashes in 2 days with 2 being within 20 min of each other. when the bsod shows up I get the WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. So I did do a little digging and saw it was related to hardware problems more specific the cpu.. With that being said. I dont know if my cpu is fried or if its something as simple as a driver problem. Attached is the bsod reports, and yes I know daemon tools is installed... I have not used it in years (back in windows 7) And it has never caused a problem with my computer before.

So... Any help would be appreciated, Its getting a bit annoying especially when I am playing games.

As a note, I do run three monitors and I know Nvidia has had a couple issues with multi monitors, But I did disable 2 of them just to see if it was the cause.

About Daemon tools, it sometimes let the system think there is a hardware error, the same is for software that is provided by the mainboard manufacturer. For this reason I would recommend to remove both ASUS & Daemon tools software.

So I did do a little digging and saw it was related to hardware problems more specific the cpu..

That is correct, but the most frequent occuring type of this crash is the MCE (Machine_Check_Exception) which shows a processor type error. This basically means that the CPU is the component that is reporting the crash, this means that it is possible that the CPU is the cause but that usually can't be said with certainty unless some troubleshooting has been done.

Lets take a look at the dumps, there is an evict crash, read crash and write crash, this may point to hardware problems and sometimes to the CPU but when looking at the frequency of the crashes it doesn't look like a hardware problem. With hardware problems the frequency of crashes should be a lot more.
My suggestion is for now the same, remove Daemon tools and ASUS software and let me know how it goes.

I will give it a shot then, I will update if the crashes continue

Well the bsod decided to pop up again.. and my pc was doing so well too.. with that being said, it seems it is only happening while i play fallout 4. idk if thats going to affect it or not. The games I play that are set to use all available cores dont seem to crash the computer.

Is the same configuration for Fallout 4?

From what I have been reading, it doesnt utilize mutithreading unless I put either launch parameters or use the in game console to enable it.

Please uninstall everything of Nvidia using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from Nvidia. Be sure the clean install box is checked and only install the Graphics driver and the PhysX driver.

I will give this a shot and keep you in the loop.

Update: It worked for a bit but now its started again, I am going to put up HWMonitor and keep an eye on my temps while I am in game to see if it is an overheating issue now.
