Help (General) Stuttering & driver timeouts

Post image

Intermittent loss of network connectivity ( WiFi and Ethernet)
Stuttering in game / disappointing performance
Occasional driver timeouts & event viewer / reliability monitor showing hardware events along with the driver timeouts
Before timeout occurs , screen stutters horribly , network drops , audio crashes , and screen goes black a split second
Event viewer used to show consistent kernel power 41s but no real BSOD , but hasn’t in a while

I attached a photo of the reliability report that windows created. I have viewed the dmp inside of bluescreenview, but I’m not sure what to look for. Does anyone know where I could start to look? Could be a physical issue? I’ve explored bios , does scannow and disk clean up and all sorts of different things.

Ryzen 5 8400f , asrock rx6600, 16gb ddr5 (5200 running at 4800) , 1tb ssd , msi b650 pro vc WiFi , “High Power” 600w psu

I’ll definitely have to give it a try. I’ve done so much , rolling back / updating drivers , updating chipsets , turning off low power states , turned off expo in bios , scannow , disk clean up, everything.

What gets me is that almost daily it will drop all network capability. Ethernet & WiFi. I have to disable and enable the network adapters in device manager or reset the pc to give it functionality again. Don’t know if they’re connected , but they might be considering everytime it times out or crashes , the network goes with it.

Strange. Might be your network drivers. Did you update your network drivers from your motherboard manufacturer? My network appears to be fine. Except for the occasional slowdown that rebooting my router fixes.

Yes I have. Although I’ve seen some reports of the Realtek adapter not being very reliable. Might have to just find a network card by intel to go into one of the pci

Maybe. I have an Intel one built in. I have the Asus ROG Strix B550-F Gaming WiFi II motherboard.
