I have had the most stressful few days trying to diagnose spergmates fickle princess of a PC and I'm stumped.

Starting a couple days ago, it started randomly freezing. No audio, no jittering - originally i thought that the USBs were failing, and the keyboard and mouse weren't working. There's nothing particular that causes the crashes, but I've observed they happen more while the PC is idle.

Ran memtest and spergmate did some CPU test and GPU benchmarking. Couldnt find anything wrong with the hardware.

Decided it must be software. This morning I did a clean install of windows and the problem's still there.

After a little investigation i found a minidump file that says the crashes are being caused by a NVIDIA driver error. Here's the info in Whocrashed (I can't read minidumps and I'm such a pc nooob please help :c :c what does this all mean?)

The thing is I don't have that driver installed. NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 352.86 is not on my PC. The version I am running is newer, 353.30.

My brain hurts guys, what do :oops:

Did you update your NVIDIA driver lately? If so, maybe something interrupted your update and just fucked your shit up. You can always revert to using System Restore. If not, well maybe something else messed with your video drivers.
