Few blue screens

Started having some blue screens, well first the computer would freeze, the keyboard would stop working and then blue screen, restart and it would say keyboard not found and overclocking failed. I have not even overclocked my system... Restart about 3 times and it comes back to normal, never had this before sine my build.

In Everest I just saw that the -5V was not showing properly? Could that be the issue? As I think its a software issue.

That 5V does look low.

Keyboard failure would be effected by the 5V rail as well so its looking like the PSU is dying.

After 6 Weeks? And does the - Rail mean anything?

Ok now the -5V has disappeared completely WTF

Ok could it be my keyboard?

Its just a cheap USB PC Line one had for about 3 Years, never let me down.

I can see the error happen, first the windows removal of USB deceive sound comes on, the keyboard lights go off, the mouse still works then about 30 seconds later I get blue screen, then if I restart the keyboard does not work, so for a test I connected my old dell USB one and that works...

Would this mean anything?

I always get this in the Event Manager

Event filter with query "SELECT * FROM __InstanceModificationEvent WITHIN 60 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "Win32_Processor" AND TargetInstance.LoadPercentage > 99" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/CIMV2" because of error 0x80041003. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected.

Could be a dying keyboard as well, that would be the easiest thing to check as you can just nip to the supermarket and get one for a few quid.
