Confussion with BSOD
Hey guys!
I have some confusion over my BSOD issue and hardware fault I have recently had.
Starts with my external Hard Drives, although this has often happened occasionally before, but this time, it really caused issues this time. Randomly for no reason, my external Hard Drives will disconnect then randomly reconnect again without out it being touched.
But this time one disconnected but didn't reconnect, so I unplugged, then a BSOD came up. The system restarted, before Windows booted up, I replugged the Hard Drive, but found it wasn't found by Windows, I unplugged, then plugged in again, then BSOD came up.
Now when powering up again, the computer had some power issue, it would power for about 2 seconds then cut off, few seconds later, it would do the same over & over & over, until I pulled the plug. THis would always happen.
I was was recommended to take all my RAM sticks out then put back in again. Amazingly this worked wonderfully, not had any issues as yet. But any reason why & what caused this? To prevent such an event again.
Thanks, Ryan
