EVENT 41 Kernel Power after the PC shuts itself down
My issue started 2 weeks ago. The computer would just shut off and would not turn back on via the power button on the front panel. I would switch the power switch on the PSU of then back on and the PC would turn itself on again. There is no BSOD with this error.
It would happen at random. Sometimes back to back or it would go 3 days and it didn't matter what the PC was doing; heavy gaming, 3D modeling, or just sitting idle.
My initial research on Google often mentioned this error with a bad or failing PSU.
So, on 3/19/16 I purchased a brand new EVGA 750 P2 Supernova
Everything was good until just now. I was watching some YouTube videos and she went off.
So, now I am lost at where to look. I'm sure the PSU is good, well, 99.9% sure since it is new.
The only thing I tried was to set the BIOS back to default optimized settings.
I'm considering a full reformat but I am hoping someone may have some other information on this Event Error and things I could try or test.
Below is the error info.
