So I have been getting green screen of death on this new computer build of mine. This new computer is the first time I have run linux as I am NOT paying Microsoft any more of my money. The green screens started happening immediately I had originally thought it was due to old drivers at first but I updated every last thing I could find and it is still happening. AI told me that it could be a corrupted file system and suggested a command but it did not seem to do anything and I do not know why. Please help with this and any other suggestions on why I may be greenscreening. It is very intermittent, if I am online for 17 hours it will happen once or twice. Anyway, here is the command the AI gave me and its results…
fsck / btrfs --check --repair fsck from util-linux 2.40.4 If you wish to check the consistency of a BTRFS filesystem or repair a damaged filesystem, see btrfs(8) subcommand ‘check’.
Probably a super newb question but I am a super newb here in Linux lol

Thanks in advance
Off the top of my head, I think
sudo journalctl -xeb -1should give you some useful error output for the previous boot (after rebooting from a failure).There’s a
--list-bootsoption if you’ve rebooted a couple times since but aren’t entirely sure.Alright so it finally happened again, here is the output of that command:

I will give this a try next time it happens! Good looking out
OP, do this - it’s the best way to figure out what’s happening. It could be any number of issues, e.g. faulty RAM. With the output of the command above people can tell you what to test for.

That’s unfortunately a bit cut off. Could you run this again with the following command?

Hm, unfortunately nothing obvious. And your last boot ended with a crash?
Nevertheless you could try running a Memtest (this can take a while) - it will check whether any of your RAM modules are faulty: https://www.memtest.org/
Yeah I ran that first thing after the crash
Oh, you should have mentioned that - or do you think that fsck is Memtest? It is not.
No I have not tried to run the memtest yet
