While i am trying to play Escape from Tarkov i am getting BSOD error and it says "WHEA Uncorrectable Error". I checked on internet and they are saying maybe rams are dying or it is related to rams itself. I have done memory diagnostic tool, memtest x86 and cmd sfc /scannow stuffs but there is nothing like error or something. Everything looks fine. At the end i formatted my pc to windows 10 (which i was using previously) but nothing changed. The game is in the C folder and i will type my system informations down below. I tested my hdd but when it is reached %71 something like this my pc freezed but the game isn't in the D drive (which is my HDD). I updated my nvidia driver but the problem still persists so i downgrade the driver to version 561 (it was 566 or something like that). But the problem still going on. Also i added minidump file if someone wants to check. Please help me. By the way i bought my pc like 6 years ago. I haven't change my thermal paste but temperatures looks fine. Also there is some dust in my computer case. I don't know it is related to my problem or not. Just in case i wanted to add this info.

My system:

CPU: Intel i7 9700k

Motherboard: Asus prime z370p

GPU: Gigabyte 4060 8gb

SSD: Samsung 970 evo 250gb

HDD: ST1000DM010-2EP102

PSU: 600w (I don't know the brand)

I added my minidump link but microsoft deleted my post because they said i am violating their code of conduct policy :D

    Hello,

    This bug check is typically related to physical hardware failures. It can be heat related or a result of defective hardware, memory, or even a processor that's beginning to fail or has failed. If over-clocking has been enabled, try disabling it. Confirm that any cooling systems such as fans are functional. Run system diagnostics to confirm that the system memory isn't defective. It's less likely, but possible, that a driver is causing the hardware to fail with this bug check.

    If you’ve overclocked any of your components (CPU, GPU, or RAM), reset them to their default speeds. Overclocking can sometimes cause hardware errors.

    A WHEA error may sometimes be resolved by updating your motherboard’s BIOS. Manufacturers often release updates that improve stability and compatibility.

    You’ve already tried updating and rolling back the drivers, which is a good step. Make sure all other drivers, especially chipset drivers, are up to date as well.

    Best Regards,
