Thanks Simon,

There is a new power supply in transit. Five years ago, I installed the new motherboard and the new i7 processor and the new 32 gigs of DDR3, none of it is mismatched. A clean install of Windows 10 Pro on a new Samsung 2 TB SSD was done by me when this issue first came up several weeks back. All the software was re-downloaded from the vendors including a new 2020 version of BIAB...WIN-BBA 2020 721.

I hope the power supply is the issue and it gets solved with the new power supply.

I have run a bunch of test including mem testing. I ran a couple of stress test and heated things up pretty good with no failure.

The issue is intermittent. This computer becomes a backup and I am building a new one. If it finally fails that will be great and whatever is causing the issue will be found.

Hardware issue? Software issue? Who knows. I also live in the Bermuda Triangle....well...just sayin...lol One thing I can say for sure, my buddy Wayne, a CCIE, who was one of the principal network engineers on the Hong Kong airport project spent three hours the other night looking into the issue without results.

I am done trying to make it fail on demand. Now that I am in the process of building a new computer this one will most likely run for the next twenty years without issue...lol

My only issue is a decision between a Ryzen 9 3900x 12 core 3.8 and a intel i9 9900 8 core 3.6. The cost is irrelevant. I have not been happy with the AMD processors I got in the past but everyone is telling me they are the best now.

Cheers,

Billy
