Constant BSOD crashes and freezing.

[Hookens]

Greetings,

I've started having constant bluescreens and random freezing from about a few weeks ago. They are related to ntoskrnl.exe, and the bug check varies from time to time but it's generally limited to MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (1a), IRLQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0a), DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) and KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE (139).

What I have tried:

• Reinstalling windows from a media installation tool.
• Reinstalling windows from a media installation tool to a different drive.
• Using Driver Verifier, which returned a blue screen, most likely false positive, each time for all the drivers I tested (I would test all of them (except ms drivers of course), get a bluescreen, uncheck it from the list, test again with that one removed, and so on).
• Verifying memory with Windows Memory Diagnostic, no issues found.
• Verifying memory with Memtest, no issues found.
• Stresstesting with OCCT (about 5 hours of testing total) to find out if it was a hardware issue causing the bluescreens, no issues found.
