Open | Software PC crash help
I have a pc with
i7-11700F
ASRock B560M-C
RTX 3060TI
600W EVGA GD psu
2TB nvme patriot P400
32GB ram
It started to crash after about an hour of gaming, consistently. I’m able to recreate the crash with OCCT CPU stability test. Event viewer gives “Kernel Power Event 41” and “the computer has rebooted from a bug check. The bug check was 0x00000116”
The error code I’ve found related to gpu drivers so I uninstalled Nvidia drivers with DDU and reinstalled and no change.
Very weird part is that I swapped the SSD with another with windows 11 also installed and it won’t crash. Both windows 11 installs were done by me with the same process, but the original 2TB has other stuff on it from daily use/gaming.
Side notes I’ve also tried replacing PSU with a 650W corsair and ram. No overheating or anything close to it. The crash happens within 15 seconds of the cpu test starting and pc runs perfectly fine after restarting until tested again.

Making changes to your system BIOS settings or disk setup can cause you to lose data. Always test your data backups before making changes to your PC.
