    PC randomly restarted, Event Viewer shows BUGCHECK 0x00000124


    So I just noticed my PC restarted randomly while I was watching the TV, I don't think it showed BSOD, just rebooted. I've had issues the past couple of weeks where the PC would randomly just freeze and I have to hard restart it. It happens once, maybe twice a day. Sometimes it doesn't happen at all.

    The restarts also seem sporadic and not often. The only thing old in my PC right now is my PSU, which is 6 or 7 years old. I've taken a new PSU from a friend as well as RAM but haven't tested it yet. When I play games all seems normal, it hasn't crashed in a game yet. I also plan to do a complete and fresh Windows reinstall to rule out software issues and see if it's a hardware one (since it's all under warranty).

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hello. I've run all the tests. I only have one internal SSD, which has one partition where I keep the Windows and 2-3 games I play. The other HDD is external and is usually not connected to the PC, I only hook it up when downloading data or stuff like that. Here are the results.

    Do you have external hard drives? There are a few logs that could be concerning.
    Code:

    I have one. It's a 1TB Verbatim USB 3.0 HDD. But I only use it for data, like pics, videos, some files etc. Nothing system related.

    I would suggest to also check the USB drive.

    When a drive is being connected, Windows will from time to time maintain it and perform some other tasks in the background. If there's something wrong, there's a chance that it could affect Windows (depending on what's wrong).
    These days, whenever you want to access a file on the drive and something's wrong, Windows detects it and can usually fix it. But there are things where Windows needs the drive to be temporary offline to fix it. If this doesn't happen, after a period of time, the filesystem could become more corrupted over time which can cause more problems.

    Alright, I will run tests on it too. It's a larger drive and USB so it'll take some time. I'll report back once it's done.
