Hi all.

I installed a new mobile and cpu. B550 tomahawk and 5800x.
Coming from a crosshair vi and a 1700.
Rest of the system
760seasonic psu
Corsair 3000mhz ddr4 16gb
1tb wd m.2
250gb samsung ssd
2tb seagate hdd
3080fe
Ae5 sound card

Instal went well windows recognised and I reactivated against new hardware.

But then I started getting Blue screen crashes
Multiple different reason
Fltmgr.sys
System service exception
NTFS
All seem to have the stop code as page fault in none pages area.

I've tried a reinstall of windows, including wiping all data. Tried with only 1 ram stick. Removed all drives bar os.

Sfc scannow will run and highlight no problems but then not long after I get a crash and sfc tells me I have corrupt files it's unable to fix. Now each time I run sfc scan now I get a ceash part way through with the fltmgr error?

I've spent 2 days on this now is it likely I have a faulty CPU or Mobo? I haven't yet moved back to my 1700 and x370 but that will be my next step
 
Check the mounting of the CPU and heatsink. It may be on too tight. Or maybe some thermal paste has got underneath the CPU. Have you checked for bent pins?
 
Bios is upto to date. Removed and reseated cpu and ram. Windows memory test come back fine.
Realtek audio drivers needed updated. Which is a small coincidence as the problems seem to happen once I install my ae5 and thr creative software...

Drivers are currently updating.. fingers crossed
 
Quick update. Drivers updated. I had some windows updates due as well. Didn't but the most recent kept failing on install.
Ran sfc scannow and brought up a corrupt file it couldn't fix. Doing some checks this looks to be in relation to that failed windows update.

So far so good. No crashes at stock, ran memtest64 for 8 loops and all was fine.
Cinebench ran fine too.

Set xmp in the bios to get ram to 3000mhz
16 loops of memtest64 and no errors.

Haven't tested any games yet and I may have just jinxed myself but a chance this was all down to a realtek HD audio driver. Which previously when I installed my ae5 and software seems to be the same point I started having issues.

Not sure what to do the the ae5 now. Kinda don't want to install it...
