Hi
My PC started to act weird. About a month ago after I pressed the power button, psu started working, coolers spin up, cpu cooler too, than restarted, after that countinous boot loop before POST. After the 5-6th restart it powers on without problems, and everything was fine for a few days, than it happened again. So I bought a new PSU. Replaced it, started it, it happened again... After few restart it started again... and NO PROBLEM. The PC worked for 3 weeks without any problem after that. Later after reinstalling windows, every game started to crash, and sometimes random blue screens after the crashes, or just while browsing the internet. (uploaded a pic with bluescreenview) So I started to check everything.
VGA stress test- no problems
ram test - no problems
hdd smart and tests - nothing found
cpu - nothing
temps are all ok, (35-40 normal, 60-70 while playing games)
Today at the morning, the same happened what I described in the start (boot loop)
Tried pulling out everything from the motherboard and puting it back again. BUT the problem is, after few power off- power on it starts up and works fine the whole day, and because of this can't test the PC hardwares, cuz its "fixes" itself somehow. (hope you know what I mean, english is not my native)
now more about the game crashes: random times it crashes with .exe error, sometimes just dissapear like when you press alt+f4. Happened in win 10 first, reinstalled win 8.1 but still happenes, also happened with up to date and later driver versions.
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400
4gb ram
Gainward Geforce GT 430
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R
So I registered here, hoping for some good tips to find the bad hardware. Tried reading a lot of forums, but all I see is test it one by one, puting back to mobo always 1 hardware, but this is not good for me because it becomes good after a few power up anyway...
Sorry for the wall of text
