[QUOTE="Toxxyc, post: 1128239, member: 19314"] Resetting Windows is not the same as reinstalling, just to let you know. I'm someone who notoriously hates to reinstall my OS, so I've not done it in YEARS. The other day I started getting BSODs, to the point where I thought the problem is hardware. I tested my RAM sticks, SSD and even the GPU. Did 3 or 4 Windows Reset things, none of which worked. Finally just backed up my data and did a fresh install. Now it runs perfectly fine again. Note this doesn't relate to the heat discussion, but to MR.C's post about the stop codes. Turns out I had corrupt drivers across the board, and not all of them are replaced with a Windows Reset.
