Windows rebooted without cleanly shutting down first

[Carlos Herdez]

Hi everybody,

My computer randomly restarts. I have take a look into Systems logs and I found this message:
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

I think this problem could be by a Hardware fail, I have disabled Automatically restart on "Startup and Recovery" section for create a minidum file but system freezes. I get a BSOD whit this information:
"A driver has overrun a stack-based buffer"

What can I do to identify the hardware that is failing?
Regards,

Test the hard drive by going to Computer. Right-click on the C drive. Select Properties, Tools, Check Now. Put a check mark in both boxes to set a disk check on the next start up

Hi Tmagic650,
Sorry for my delay, I was testing my PC after test the drive (seems like not issues found) and windows rebooted again a few minutes ago.

I get a BSOD with this error: DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER

 

[Tmagic650]

Okay, go into Control Panel, System, Advanced System Settings, Startup and Recovery, Settings. Uncheck "time to display a list of operating systems". Reduce "time to display a list of recovery options" to 5 seconds. Uncheck automatically restart and change "write debugging information" to small memory dump (256KB) This will stop the auto restarting and speed up your boot times. It will also make it easier to post any minidumps produced

Hi Tmagic650,

This problem was solved. The problem was caused by mctkmd64.sys driver (Magic Control Technology UVTP100 USB to VGA adapter). The solution was to replace current driver with an old version (Good version Trigger External Graphics Family 11.10.1014.0179). Thanks a lot for your help, I identify the problem using a minidump file.
