Hey everyone, I'm having some frustrating issues with my PC—it's constantly throwing blue screens at me, and I'm not sure why. The error message usually mentions 'kernel security something,' and it just restarts on me randomly. This happens even when I'm just watching YouTube, so I don't think it's an overheating problem. I've got some dump files that might help diagnose the issue, but I'm really in need of any guidance or solutions you might have! Here's the link to the dump files: [https://www.mediafire.com/folder/tg8a02xt663pm/dump](https://www.mediafire.com/folder/tg8a02xt663pm/dump)

From your dump analysis, it looks like both crashes point to issues with kernel functions, which often indicate bad drivers or issues with RAM. The primary stop code you got (KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE) usually means there's something wrong with your drivers or even your RAM. It’s more common for software issues to be the culprit rather than hardware failures, so check if there's any software you recently installed that might have a buggy driver. Can you share your PC specs?
Yeah, also keep an eye on any overclocked settings you might have applied. Those can sometimes cause stability issues that lead to these kinds of crashes.
To get a better handle on those blue screens, you'll want to analyze the dump files. They contain crash logs from those errors. If you can boot into Windows (or safe mode), check the folder C:WindowsMinidump for any dump files. You want to zip that folder up and share it through a user-friendly file share site—MediaFire or Catbox are good options since Reddit tends to block some others. If you don't find many dump files, there are ways to configure Windows to create more. Taking multiple dump files will help in diagnosing the problem better.
Thanks for the insights! I haven't done much to the hardware recently, but I’ll check everything to see if there's any faulty software or drivers.
