Been having issues recently with CLOCK WATCHDOG TIMEOUT Bsods, I've tried using SFC Scan to check for system instability, i've bought and installed new ram to try and remedy the situation. I don't know how to read the event viewer logs to find something related to what's causing my issue. Any help in troubleshooting this would be greatly appreciated System Specs are below.

    alright so similar issues are popping up again, Chain crashing of Discord when multiple people are talking or soundclips are played. As well as an event viewer full of Errors tying to different applications and a ton of DistributedCOM Warnings. Example of a windows Specific Application error

    Try running without overclocks and without the XMP profile to see if the problem persists.

    I'm giving it a fresh install right now, I hope this solves my conflicts. Only files of consequence are all games I can redownload so I'll figure it out. I may reply to this thread if the issue persists

    Do you have any important files or are you able to perform a fresh installation of Windows?
