I'm experiencing constant bluescreen errors and hardware failures as indicated in the Reliability Monitor. I keep seeing error codes 20001 and ef almost daily, with the occasional code 124 LiveKernelEvents popping up. This seems to have started after I switched out some RAM and graphics cards while updating to Windows 11. I did have bluescreen issues before, but I'm uncertain if they're connected. I'm looking for assistance to diagnose and resolve these problems. What specific files will you need from me to help?

If you're unsure about updating the BIOS, it's worth giving it a try. BIOS updates can resolve various hardware-related bugs. Just make sure to read the release notes for your motherboard update to see what's changed before you proceed.
To accurately troubleshoot the bluescreen issues, we'll need the dump files, which are essentially crash logs. If you can access Windows, check the C:WindowsMinidump folder for any existing dump files. If you find some, zip the folder and upload it using a file-sharing service, as Reddit often blacklists certain hosts. For better insights, it’s preferable to have multiple dump files. If you only have one, follow a guide to configure your system to create Small Memory Dumps moving forward.
Also, just a heads-up, if you've made significant changes like new RAM or a graphics card, sometimes those parts could be the culprit too. A good run of stress tests with tools like MemTest86 for RAM and FurMark for your GPU might help identify if they are functioning properly.
I noticed that the latest dump file shows your motherboard's BIOS as being quite outdated. Is there a specific reason you haven’t updated it yet? An upgrade might help resolve some compatibility or stability issues.
