    WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR at random


    Hello everyone,

    This has been bugging me for nearly a year now, I keep getting WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR at random,
    I've tried a fair few things, it's had a APU RMA (initially thought it was a Graphics issue), I've had both RAM sticks out indivually to see if it was one of them, Windows 10 runs on a SSD (BSOD's on both HDD and SDD hosting Windows), I've disabled the Wifi card, updated every driver I can think of.

    I've ran WIndows Mem Diag, various bench mark style programs to try trigger it, but always passes with a clean bill of health, same with the usual sfc, diskchecks.

    There's no fancy hardware plugged in, just a USB Keyboard, Mouse, HDMI, Ethernet, 3.5mm for sound)

    Not plugged into any special socket or PSU, all stock (but I've noticed it does turn itself on sometimes if there's a little jump in the power, IE turning a charger on in the same room for example)

    Have run out of ideas a little now, the warrenty runs out in about a month so I'm hoping to locate the issue while I still can.

    It runs excellently, but then randomly bang it goes blue :/

    Attached zip file of the info and mini dump

    Thanks :)

    25) Run memtest86+ version 5.01 for at least 8 passes.
    Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
    This may take hours so plan to run it overnight.
    25a) Please make sure you use the Memtest86+ version 5.01 with the link below.
    Memtest86+ - Advanced Memory Diagnostic Tool
    The testing is done not by time but by passes.
    The more passes the better.
    There are a significant number of false negatives if fewer than 8 passes are made.
    A false negative is a test pass when there is malfunctioning RAM.
    There is 8 GB of RAM on the computer.
    Memtest86+ version 5.01 testing takes approximately 1 - 2 hours /GB RAM
    Just 1 error is a fail and you can abort testing.
    Then test 1 RAM module at a time in the same DIMM each for 8 or more passes.
    25b) When Memtest86+ has completed 8 or more passes use a camera or smart phone camera to take a picture and post an image into the thread.
