Title about sums it up. Fresh windows 10 Professional 64bit install. I installed the GPU Tweak II software for my GTX 980 ti which required a system restart to complete. While restarting, an error message popped up (one of the 0x08xxxxxxxx type of errors) but then dissappeared almost immediately as the system completed restarting so I didn't get to read it. I opened Windows Event Viewer to see if I could find the error and observed having 420 errors in the last 3 days. There's obviously too much to paste and include here so was looking for advice on where/how to get help. Honestly this is the first time I've opened the event viewer in any version of windows so idk how to read the errors and all of my attempts to google them have gotten me either outdated info or none at all if there's a known forum for Error log help or if anyone here could help, just let me know how to go about sharing the event logs or what info specifically from the errors you would need. The only response I've gotten elsewhere on the issue was that I could probably ignore the errors, however I have been experiencing occasional 5-15 second hangs in Windows 10 even when not doing much (for example, when opening a settings window or even clicking the start menu button) so am concerned some of the errors could be related to system instability. Thanks in advance if anyone can help!
There are 4 categories
Critical

Are all yours in the category 'Error' ??
Thanks for the reply. I have 1 critical, 425 error, 1,539 warning, & 4,308 information. The one critical was for an improper shutdown 3 days ago, so I don't think that one needs to be worried about, though I can't recall any improper shutdown occuring.There are 4 categories

I assume the above numbers are for the 7 day period. They are a bit high but nothing to really worry about. I only watch the 'critical'. If there are a lot of those, then you need to investigate.
They are for the 7 day period (which is a 3day period since its only been that long since install). The ones I seem to be getting the most from the error category (numerous times per hour) are:

Those seem to be the main repeat offenders
If you are only getting it because of that tweaking software, then remove it. Something with it that Windows 10 does not like, if it is the root of the problem.
Hey, thanks for the response. Unfortunately the Tweaking software is not the issue, the errors have been spamming since installing the OS on 3/2, I didn't install that software until 3/5. I also didn't see anywhere that any of the errors or warnings pointed towards that software whereas others mentioned the program ect at fault.If you are only getting it because of that tweaking software, then remove it.

Drivers like the Intel RAID is known to cause problems, same as the NVidia drivers.
Always work backwards to what was installed after, to what was installed when this problem started popping up.
If you are pulling the info from the Dump Log, WhoCrashed is easy to help diagnose.
