    BSOD Critical_Process_died
    « on: July 28, 2018, 12:51:05 PM »
    Hey guys,

    I bought this pc and used it for 2 years with no problems. Just recently in the past month, I've been having frequent blue screens. The first blue screen I encountered was WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. Soon after, I did the a reformat that is implemented into Windows 10 which removed all files from my SSD(holds windows installation). After I reformatted, I've been getting a new BSOD: CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED. This BSOD has been occurring real often especially while I'm playing Fortnite Save the World.  I am not sure if it is because of my SSD or my graphics card or neither. I've run Crystal Disk Info and it said my SSD is still at 93%  health. I tried stress testing my GFX card and it ran fine. I am currently at a loss, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have no idea what this means:

    t said my SSD is still at 93%  health.
    A 93% good for any storage device is not good  'nuff.
    Good quality 78 RPM  vinyl  records do that good.

    Install Windows on a standard HDD an see what you get.

      Hey thanks for the reply, I will install windows on my standard HDD as my last resort since I love the speed of SSDs.  I recently had a chance to screenshot one of the CMD prompts that randomly popped up, and I will also attach a picture of my CrystalDiskInfo readings.

      edit: sorry I thought it was at 93% it is actually at 92%

      My suggestion is a why to reduce the amount of time you have to use to diagnose the problem at hand. You must have a 100 % working system to test something that is failing.  You have to install Windows on the good HDD.

      Maybe I shooed try an illustration.  If you suspect your submarine will sink, you  don't put it in the ocean. You put it in a place where you can safely test it for leaks.

      Do you see what I mean.?
