Different BSODs or freezing while gaming or at desktop
Recently I had been getting BSODs or freezing (no response from input, no pointer movement, screen stuck, last sound looping through speakers) that seemed to start around the time that the Win10 Creator Update hit my windows update. That was roughly a week ago. The frequency of the crashes has varied, with some coming in groups of 2 or 3 within minutes, and others hours or days apart. Usually in between the crashes, which can be infrequent, everything seems to run normally. I haven't found one action or program that can set it off, as it's happened during online gaming, while AFK at the desktop, and everywhere in between. It also doesn't consistently give the same bluescreen error.
I tried a fresh install of Win10, in case I had gotten a bad creator update, but the BSODs kept coming, both with the fresh Windows 10 install, and after it downloaded the creator update once again. I tried replacing the ram with different sticks earlier today (8/19), but I had another no-BSOD freeze since. I attempted to run Driver Verifier, but that caused a BSOD either on startup, or shortly after, and it didn't give a file name on the bluescreens that it caused. I ended up trying it twice, both times shutting it off after a few restarts.
Thank you for any help.
