Why Does My Computer Keep Restarting Without Warning?

Asked By TechGuru47 On

I've got a 5090 FE paired with a 5800X3D, running on a B550i motherboard, and it's powered by a 1000W Corsair PSU. Lately, my computer has been randomly shutting down and restarting without any warning. I keep receiving Kernel 41 errors and messages indicating that the system has rebooted due to a bug check. I've also got my SSD connected via USB-C, which might be related. I'm looking for any troubleshooting tips that might help address this issue. I've attached my minidump file for anyone interested.

First things first, check your power situation. Do you have a UPS, or are you just on a surge protector? If your power supply is new (less than a week old) and you have a clean power source, that might still be the culprit. In my experience, random restarts are usually tied to PSU issues if everything else checks out.

Check the Event Viewer for any critical errors related to Kernel Power 41. That could give you more clues about what's going wrong. You might also consider if you've installed any new drivers or software recently, as those could be causing conflicts. If your PSU is this new and you're still having issues, it may need a second look.

Did you install anything in the days just before this started happening? Sometimes it can be a driver or software conflict, especially if something is drawing more power when it kicks in. I’d also recommend trying a different outlet to see if it stabilizes things.
