I ran the reboot test and stress test on gpu and cpu and hard drive individually all passed but when I try to run everything together throughly it get to 83 percent on the linear test and turns screen white?

Hi Uprightbigg9:

Is this occurring on the Alienware Aurora Ryzen Edition​ R10 desktop you mentioned in your 07-Nov-2021 thread Aurora R10, Air Cooled, CPU Temps, what is your Windows OS (if Win 10 or Win 11 please include the version at build at Setting | System | About | Windows Specifications), and what version of SupportAssist are you using [check at Options (gear icon) | About]? When you said "when I try to run everything together throughly" do you mean that the problematic hardware scan was launched from SupportAssist at Troubleshooting tab | I Want to Troubleshoot My PC | I Want to Scan My Entire PC?

I don't recall ever seeing a blank white screen on my Inspiron 5584 while running a hardware scan but I'll see if I can reproduce the problem once I know the type of scan you ran. I'm not sure, but the white screen you describe sounds a bit like what misssappy encountered in their 14-May-2021 thread Support Assist Hardware Scan That Causes Windows To Go Into Recovery Mode.
