As per your note re. BSOD's, I've uploaded the Memory.dmp file here... https://www.dropbox.com/s/5s1wbdc0sgsk9no/MEMORY.DMP?dl=0

This is what the reliability report looks like

So, it's been over a week now and initially, after doing the chkdsk, (it didn't flag any errors that I could see), the PC ran fine for a couple of days without issue. I downloaded and installed a game from Steam and it worked fine, no issues with loading tracks in AC, iRacing or rf2. At this...

I'll try the chkdsks. The only other issue I've had is the headphone socket at the front is only giving sound out of one side and when I plugged the thumb drive into the usb port on the same panel, it didn't recognise it until I removed the usb sound dongle I had plugged into the socket next to...

No errors

I have done two memtests which came up with no issues, but I haven't tried this one, so I'll run it overnight and let you know

Now it's just black-screened and rebooted. Got this error....

Just did a restart just to make sure everything was reloaded and it BSOD'd during the shutdown

OK, I've updated the Nvidia drivers with a clean install

Do I need to do the DDU uninstall first?

Drivers were just from Windows Update, with the exception of the one for my Logitech wheel which I had to download the installer from the Logitech website and run manually.

OK, so I'm still getting random BSOD's and sometimes it seems to be crashing even when it's not being used, including a Hardware error at 9.21 this morning. Any ideas?

It's a SanDisk USB 3.0 16GB thumb drive that I bought specifically for this purpose! The same PC wrote the files to it - maybe the basic drivers on Windows installer weren't fully compatible with it? It's done all the updates and is currently playing YouTube videos of ducks to see if it...

Ok. On the off-chance it might be causing a problem, I put the thumb drive into a USB 2.0 port instead of 3.0 and this has allowed me to get past the errors and I've now got Windows installed. I'll let it update the drivers before I try installing anything on it.

I'm now getting this process up to anywhere between 60-72% before it either crashes with the same error as above or I get BSOD. I'm wondering whether or not this is actually a hardware issue?! Either way, my PC is now just a very expensive disco light. :(
