I was running Lightroom's new denoise on a photo of some fireworks I took and when I clicked the option to open the denoise tools, I got a BSOD. I had heard from other photographers that Lightroom's new update to their denoise tool is buggy, so that is probably some software glitch with the program, but my PC is 4 years old and I've had some RAM issues in the past and I want to make sure this isn't my fault because I have a paid shoot coming up.

I'll replace the RAM if commenters think it's a RAM issue. It's basic 16x2 3200 RAM from Newegg. I turned on XMP to put it to its rated 3200 speed but it's not overclocked. I use a Ryzen 5900X and a RTX 2070.

The zipped file is 2.16 MB so it won't fit here but I have a link to my OneDrive account PATRICK1-(2023-07-03_10-32-17).zip

Thanks for any help given.

Forgot to mention, I'm actually replacing the HDDs with larger HDDs anyway, so I'll just check my C drive and not worry about the HDDs since I'm replacing them next weekend. Do you think this is a drive problem?

There were many event viewer drive reports.

Once the drives are replaced please reevaluate the computer stability / instability.

I definitely will and I kept those programs in a folder on my desktop and I screenshotted your advice so I can run them when I replace the hard drives.
