Yep its definitely not locking up, it first I thought it was my power tripping, that’s how it goes off, I was leaning toward the motherboard especially with the pcie dropping from 16x to 8 and then to 4x. I know whichever one I pick to replace it will be the other.
A little help please not sure what could be busted
- Thread starter woppy101
- Start date
I have kernel event tracing, and kernel boot, in the details it says windows boot environment failed to load the HSP firmwear
And speak of the devil it starts again, on thing I have noticed is when it does it, if I switch it straight back on it turns back off right a few times, before it even tries to go through its bios codes, and when it does finally get through the codes it switches back off before it gets to the boot screen.
the only thing that would allow me to get back to windows this time was removing and then reinstalling the graphics card

i would unplug it and check the pci connector on the gpu for damager and or dirt, also check the socket for any dust etc, finally ddu the drivers and go from there, could be dust or even dirt or hair in the socket got in there when you took it out maybe

Last time I had something similar to this it went on for months, I was sure it was hardware. Ended up doing a fresh windows install which fixed it.
It would drive me nuts because the shut downs were so random, like you i could sometimes game for days fine then the next day it would shut down watching a youtube video.

This is exactly whats happening, I’m currently restoring to a point last week, and then will remove and reinstall the drivers to see if that works

when it was happening to me i tried restoring but it continued, it wasn't until a full nuke and fresh install it fixed the problem. I'm not saying it will for you but it did for me.
Well that didn’t work, I have just spent 10 mins trying to get past the bios check codes, for it to crash on the boot screen a few times, to get into windows to crash 2 mins into a game
edit now I can’t even get to the bios

New one now, try to power on and it it will get to checking the bios codes then off it goes, but I then have to switch the psu off to try again, the retry button on the motherboard is none responsive, the graphics card is out of the board and hdmi plugged into the board

If you're pressing the power button on the case and there's no response is your PSU even starting (fan in the PSU spinning [unless it has some eco mode where it doesn't do that])?
I'd absolutely rule out any kind of software issues tbh.

I was overclocked and running the memo at it’s rated speed, until all this started, now totally stock including the memory, I think I may have to bite the bullet and nuke my windows drive

I'm not convinced it's a software issue. It seems intermittent and the lack of crashing after rollbacks might be a fluke, after all the problem seems to come back?
I'd run a couple of days on totally stock settings now that you've cleared cmos and see what happens.

You could be right, as soon is I tried to run the memory at its rated speed by switching on xmp the shut offs and failed boots have stared again

reset cmos again and now can’t get past the bios, as soon as it tries to load windows it shuts off
Right so pc booted fine when using the igpu, as soon as i try to boot the pc from the graphics card it craps out, so what do we think, broken PCIE slot or busted graphics card, I’m leaning toward the board as in the bios it was running the PCIE at 1.0 8x edit it’s now running at 4.0 4x

It’s hardline watercooled so a massive pain, I think Its definitely the board or card as I’m now getting 3 beeps(no gpu detected) and it switches to the IGPU and then boots up fine and dandy on the IGPU
