Hello all,

My PC restarting with the below error Message while gaming any game
Even while installing AMD Adrenalin its giving the same message.
I ran RAM tests which came clean. I dont have alternative PSU. Is it because of the GPU? I dont know.

The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

What are my options? I live in a remote area of TN. I already asked for any alternative GPU & PSU to check with my system and technician said that he will ask around. I am 70kms from Chennai city so cant go to any service centre.
 
Check the error message before the reboot log.

From volmgr. Probably a loose HDD connection, or corrupting drive. Unplug all drives and boot with only one (your boot drive) and see if it persists. Or try booting off Windows live image on an external drive/

I ran HDD Sentinel and my WD 570 nvme SSD gave excellent results.
I reinstalled my PC with Windows 10 just now.
The option in the settings where Display and power options are there, these don't work at all. They won't open while all other options work like network, updates, taskbar options.
When ever I run Witcher 3 from Steam it gives the same errors and restarts by BSODs.
I recently ran Stalker 2 when it reaches compiling shaders it restarts or gives BSODs.
While running normally in Windows it won't give any restarts.
While I was running Windows 11 it was giving the same error even while in normal windows.

What are your PC specs? Could be for a multitude of reasons.

For example, I was having the same issue a few days ago. Turns out I had set my negative CO offset too aggressively. Changed it from -30 to -25 on all cores and voila, issue solved.
 
check your ATX and CPu power pin on motherboard are tightly connected .basically whenever your pc pulls more power /autoboosts the power supply is not able to provide it .And also check in bios whether voltages remain stable in the prescribed vrails observe for a while .Some times you connect multiple devices on a certain vrail and it is not able to handle it.if you have non asus board please find similar in your UEFi you will have it

can you show me where to change the values?

It all depends on whether you even have it enabled. It isn't enabled by default, so I highly doubt that's the issue you're facing.

How old is your PSU?
Kernel-power related random reboots can be due to bad PSU, assuming you haven't done any unstable clock & voltages.

Now my PC isn't able reach windows desktop screen as it is giving BSODs and restarting itself continuously.

Go into the BIOS, and load optimized defaults.
Take out one stick of RAM and try. Try one stick at a time/different slots.
Also, what is the BSOD error message?

Atleast now you will know quickly which component is causing this once you replace it. Start ruling them out 1 by 1.
Will be easier for repair guy too.

Start with UPS, PSU.
Did you test without UPS ?
Ram i guess is already ruled out since you got test ram from repair guy ?

I connected directly to the wall socket without UPS and now it booted to windows.
What is the easiest and load intensify PC game that I can install right now? Please tell so that I will install and check once.

Play what you have man - witcher 3 next gen/metro etc.

Even better, you can run some stress tests - for cpu / gpu ( can also test ram this way in future ) .
Look at OCCT and prime95 to begin with. I use superposition unigine for gpu.

Hopefully its UPS, you can try with and without UPS multiple times to confirm it.
I have had issues before where sometimes it would boot sometimes it wont and that led can us astray, ( Not sure, but i think it was PSU then - Also Antec after ~ 5years )

When I started testing Power option in OCCT the same previous error came and my system restarted.
So is it my PSU then?
Even when I tried to play Witcher 3 the same error came and my system restarted.

Only way to know for sure is to replace it and test. If error goes away, then that was the issue ( assuming 2 components are not faulty at the same time ...)
Or need someone who can diagnose psu directly and test.
Call the repair guy, since you get the error quickly, maybe he can diagnose it better this time.

Another option is to buy new psu and if that wasnt the problem, sell old psu on forum but you will lose some money this way. Or keep old one as backup.

You can google for the error you get in OCCT just in case its helpful. "occt power test crash"
https://www.reddit.com/r/OCCT/comments/o6p3p8/pc_immediately_shuts_down_on_power_test

You can try to reduce clocks / voltages / set power limits and see if that works.
Maybe stress test only cpu and not gpu, does it work ? Then stress test only gpu etc.
Also make sure you dont have overclocks as he said.

Have to rule things out one by one. So probably not RAM and not UPS for now.

Please suggest any good 750watts bronze rated PSU under 6.5k
I was seeing the following psus

Corsair CX750,
Coolermaster MWE 750 v3
MSI A750BN

All are starting from 6k to 6.5k

Which one of the above PSU is best. All are Bronze rated non modular psus.

Maybe open a separate thread for this to get psu for 6.5k. There is also a psu tier list that you can look at, i don't have link.

I think for 8k-9k+ we can get good gold modular 850w psus. So you should be able to get good ones for 6.5k with lower power.
DestGod helped me when i was looking for components and OMEGA44-XT always has some good recommendations.

Also, there is a chance that its not psu too. Will only know for sure after replacing. What happened to the repair guy ?

I have had a power supply fail this way. But few years after that, my gpu also failed like this - working sometimes and not working other times.
Because it was very old, i replaced gpu and also had to replace psu as it was not enough. Later i tested it and turned out that gpu had failed and i was able to use psu for another build. ( CX450)

Repair guys father got admitted in hospital for TB. So he said he can't come.
Also he does not any spare gpu or PSU for me to test.
