How do I diagnose which part is making my PC randomly freeze

[stormprince]

What were you doing ? Which game or app ? Or multiple games ? Also which sort of crash ?

I ran real bench luxmark, and overwatch both crashed my system.
It went a yellow screen, the audio was there this time but I disconnected from my game nearly instantly.

Any reports generated?

Yeah there was actually a lot more, it was all the dll stuff I can send them later if you'd like

Did you try pulling the 980ti and running with your onboard graphics? Sounds like your video card or you power supply, after that you test individual sticks of ram.

I can't get it to work with integrated graphics..

Mate you have to take out the 980ti physically...

I tried that the other night, I changed in the bios the integrated graphics setting from PEG to the other option and then took it out and plugged DVI into motherboard.. No signal.

 

[MrPerforations]

have you installed a new bios and require a newer chipset driver?
just a random idea.
did you install anything new before this started happening?

Changing nothing in bios. Take out your 980ti and plug the dvi or hdmi into the motherboard socket. The motherboard will automatically switch to integrated as the primary display adapter.

Back when i had the APU, in order to switch from the dedicated card (which i then sold) to the onboard APU graphics, i had to change some settings in BIOS. I did mention this to OP earlier in this thread.

Didn't know it worked that way with Intel's IGP.

Yes you aren't wrong there were motherboards which had to be manually set to make use of either IGP or the external GFX. But that was before core i series.

The OP did change settings to something and got stuck. Its better to just take the gfx out and put it aside.

The system automatically detects ext. gpu and set it as primary same is the case if you take it out it sets the only display adapter available (igfx)

Okay, I'm away from the PC right now until Saturday but when I get back I'll give it another shot if I don't do it before I leave.

I am aware this thread is old ; however.

You most likely have a Gigabyte Board, these errors are generated by GCC the Gigabyte Control Centre.

I have been at them like white on rice as the SMB error has been around since 2017 on their boards, I badgered them so much that they have finally it seems fixed those errors.

If you uninstall the GCC software and all of its minions and download the latest version you should find those problems gone and hopefully no new ones.

What does event viewer show you?

 

[1stFalloutboy]

None of those messages any more only things like this because its working.

Peripheral.SetLEDEffect2ToMem() I'm just letting everyone know that the errors being generated have been fixed after I hassled them relentlessly to fix the faults.
