BSOD :: Various Bug Checks - Possibly A Driver Is At Fault
Dec 20, 2015
For the past few days someone I know has been getting various bsods at random times. Whether it be sitting idle or playing a game. I've been using teamviewer and I have been trying to figure out what the deal is for a few days now and I can't figure out what's going on here.
I've never looked into blue screens so much in my life before this and I've just about given up. From what I've gathered, this could possibly be a bad driver since this is a Windows 10 upgrade from a Windows 8.1, but I can't figure out how to identify it.
It started happening after a blue screen while playing a game. The computer itself is a prebuilt. The bsod checkers I've used consistently point to ntoskrnl.exe being the reason for it. But I've gotten WDFLDR.sys, hal.dll, HDAudBus.sys and such along with it. However they have not appeared since (I've been trying to fix them by updating various drivers).
We've been fine for the past 2 days, then it happened again 3 times. A fourth time recently when I tried using that Dm Log Collector (and the computer was idle for hours just fine). Should I uninstall or update? Or perhaps any other issues?
I have problem with BSOD. When I'm using qTorrent and do sth else on my new laptop I get BSOD. Who Crashed is telling me that i need to update broadcom wireless driver. URL....
I've had some issues with a BSOD for over a year now, first when I was running Windows 8 and now still with Windows 10. It first appeared after I got a USB wi-fi adapter which I replaced with an adapter that connected to the motherboard, but the BSODs have not stopped.
I inquired about it a few months ago on several other forums. It was apparently related to some driver that the USB adapter installed (the name of which I can no longer remember), but I was unable to uninstall it or delete it without my wi-fi becoming unusable. I'm also unable to use a wired connection in my apartment, though I'm not sure that would even be possible if I deleted the driver. The error code I get is "bad_pool_caller", but I believe I used to get "irql_not_less_or_equal" as well.
For some background, the BSOD usually appears when I'm doing something intensive over the internet like watching video on YouTube or Twitch, streaming audio, etc.
Here's my debug folder: COLIN-PC-Wed_09_02_2015_214036_86.zip
I've started to get BSOD like 2 times a week, and i have struggled a time now to view my minidump(Acces denied). But i downloaded BlueScreenWiew and now i can see it.
The Bluescreen is caused by the driver cpuz123_x64.sys, but the problem is that i have already uninstalled cpuz but the bluescreen is still occurring.

Recently 'upgraded' to 10 from 7.System boots but then BSODs after a short period of time (a delayed service startup?).I suspect it is related to Intel Rapid Storage drivers or similar.
I've been having some BSODs both on startup and while running some programs. Most recently I got a Page Fault in Nonpaged Area while using Firefox. While running Diablo 3 last month I got a Memory Management BSOD. On boot last month I got an IRQL Not Less or Equal BSOD.
I'm getting recently many "page fault in nonpaged area" BSOD and I think it happens only when I'm using torrent downloads.
I saw some related posts with similar issues, but they all about DELL laptops, and I own Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro with windows 10 home edition that came with it.
According to what I saw in the dump files and in other threads, I understood it may be related to my wireless adapter (Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter)
Of course I checked for updates from Lenovo, but I'm using the last one (7.35.307.0_WHQL)
I'm attaching the zip you request, but I have another MEMORY.DMP in C:windows which was created during the last crash.
It's kinda big (100 Mb zipped), so tell me if you want me to upload it and where.
I'm attaching also the event viewer logs which I cleaned right before the last crash, you can see the critical and the reboot at around 18:30 GMT+0 .
I had just closed my "Metal Gear Solid V" game and returned to desktop when I got a BSOD. The BSOD said there was a page fault in a non paged area, as well as an error with a .dll file but I didn't manage to get its name.
I've never gotten a BSOD on this computer before. I've had the computer for a little over a year now. Also I've played that game for over a month with no problems.
The computer has been functioning normally thus far.
I've attached a .zip file in accordance to this link: BSOD - Posting Instructions - Windows 10 Forums I also have the larger memory dump file if needed, just ask for me to upload it.
I have just done a fresh install of Win 10 on two computers and everything, including the internet, is working perfectly. However when I use File Explorer on computer B to look at a shared folder on Computer A, Computer A crashes with a Page Fault In Nonpaged Area. This happens instantly and consistently. I checked the Device manager and there are no exclamation marks. I also reinstalled the network drivers on both PCs but the problem persists.
I tried using the following command on Computer B:
It was fine last night then suddenly today, this error keep appearing. Is there a way to fix it? I've been searching for solution but I still don't know what to do.
Yesterday my start menu suddenly stopped working. In it's place I had a little white house icon on the task bar. I finally figured out that that was a Lenovo product called Pokki that was apparently designed to replace the missing start menu in Windows 8. I deleted it and rebooted but my start menu still doesn't work. Then I noticed that my C drive is now called "Windows 8_OS (C". Is it possible that somehow I've reverted to Windows 8 and that's why everything is messed up? I certainly did not do this deliberately. The only other thing is that I noticed that before all this started that the Comodo firewall I had been using was gone. I thought it maybe happened when I installed Windows 10 (which had been working fine for several months, BTW) - I reinstalled Comodo but then uninstalled again thinking that might be the problem. (It wasn't.)
My start menu did freeze up once before - I fixed it by deleting explorer.exe and then putting it in again as advised when I googled it. This time, I don't even have explorer.exe in my task manager.
I was trying to install a driver to see if the performance would increase. It crashed my system. Also, a crash occurred yesterday and the day before yesterday.
I have a Dell 2305 running an AMD 64 bit processor.It originally ran Win 7.Randomly, I get an error message that the display driver stopped.When magnifier is running, its window goes black.It sometimes recovers...sometimes it crashes the system and goes into restart. AMD web site says its due to a timeout with no further way.
Having an annoying problem where when I try and install a software package for a device the system hard locks during the driver installation phase. No BSOD, simply freezes at the same point during the installation. Doesn't do it for every device I've installed its only done it for my Avermedia C985 capture card and now for a D-Link USB WIFI stick.
I had to manually install the drivers for the capture card through the device manager. The USB stick is harder because I cant get the software separately to the driver so can't complete the installation.
I've tried disabling driver verification but that didn't work.
The bluescreens are really random and like to happen out of no where. I could be playing League or Blade and Soul and it when it happens. I usually always have chrome open in the background watching something. Some days PC would boot up and I would have to restart because it's slow and not opening anything.
I get these random freezes since I've updated to Windows 10. Did not happen with Windows 7. Freezes are random and take about 10-15sec each time. Driver Verifier causes BSOD.
Using windows update I was installing the MS Drawing Driver and my keyboard flashed (blue lights) and the next thing a BSOD. I have attached the collected files, how to confirm the MS Drawing Driver is responsible.
I get the Driver overran stack buffer error with BSOD randomly sometimes while gaming (rust, dishonored, Skyrim, civ 5, and most any other game). I have manually updated the drivers for my motherboard, video card, and peripheries. I also randomly get the irql_not_less_or_equal BSOD during the same things (though this one appears to only happen when internet windows are open thru chrome and/or Microsoft edge). My game files are on an external Toshiba hard drive.
Ever since I updated to windows 10, my computer automatically installs some Nvidia drivers from their servers. From past experience I know that my computer can get random BSOD's with the wrong Nvidia drivers installed (WinDBG always pointed towards nvdllmkm.sys). So previously when their was an Nvidia update that would cause crashes, I could install a previous version that I knew was working, however if I do this know I'm forced to go to Nvidia builds before the windows 10 update and afterwards windows update just reinstalls the windows 10 version it thinks I need.
So instead of trying to install previous Nvidia versions, I want to go into the root of the problem and find out why I'm getting these random BSOD's (BTW mostly happens when I'm watching a show, so could be temperature related?). Furthermore, I would prefer to stay on windows 10
My computer seems to run fine but whenever I shut it down or restart it the screen goes black for about 10 minutes and then I get a blue screen with a driver power state failure. The system files are attached.
I recently upgraded my PC with a new solid state drive and to windows 10. I am now experiencing some BSOD (Driver_Power_State_Failure) crashes. I cant say with any certainty but these appear to only be happening once the computer has been in sleep mode for a while. I have attached Zip file ....
Currently I have windows 10 installed, although the problem was persisting even while I was using windows 7. The problems started when I ran out of space on my SSD and tried to bring files over to my other HDD for storage. In the end I threw my hands up and reformatted my Windows 7. And since my SSD was too small to keep everything on last time I decided to install windows on my HDD.
After updating everything and so on my computer, again, decided to BSOD. So I upgraded to windows 10 and eventually it started doing the same thing. I've looked through my device manager and have not located any out of date drivers.
I'm been having issues a long time with different sorts of BSOD's but I've been able to cook it down to this last one after replacing both graphics card and Logitech headset.
Latest error which occuring at least once per day:
The driver DriverWudfRd failed to load for the device SWDWPDBUSENUM{01539fd4-4f12-11e4-824c-806e6f6e6963}#00000000007E0000.
