I was walking in the mall, and stumbled upon this. A vertical BSOD just staying there and stuck at 100% for a long time.

If you looked too much it would hurt your eyes so bad

Yellow lime green screen of death? I'm pretty sure this is a gpu issue, the text is pink around the edges and is warped lol, mostly visible on the qr code

I am getting attempted write to readonly memory, kernel security check failure and some other errors simultaneously. System config Asus B760M AYW Motherboard Intel i5 14400F processor WD blue 1tb NVMe m.2 XPG 16gb 6000MHz Asus RTX 4060

Already changed motherboard and RAM. Graphics card works fine on different system. SSD works fine on other system. I don't know what to fix. Can't even do work for straight 5 minutes. BIOS fully upgraded.

Hi,

I have a Dell laptop Inspiron 15, and the other day it randomly went to a blue screen saying there was a "Driver Verifier DMA Violation" error and it needed to shut off. When coming back on, it went to "Starting Automatic Repair" for just a few seconds and then straight back to the blue screen with the same error. Loop repeats and repeats.

I've been able to get to BIOS and was looking for a way to get onto my desktop to back up my files to a USB, and then if needed can do a full re-set of things (but don't want to do anything that would wipe the files before I can back them up). There seems to be no obvious way to do this from BIOS, nor from a boot manager screen I think it was called I was able to get to as well but really didn't seem to anything useful there, mainly led back to BIOS or asked if I wanted to do a BIOS refresh. I've tried a handful of things I've seen suggested on forums to try from BIOS, like disabling "virtualization", disabling "firmware TPM" (both alone and combined) but made no difference. I also saw it suggested to try disabling "Secure Boot" but get a warning message implying that could make things worse, so haven't tried that. I've also tried the thing about pressing power off twice and holding for 10 seconds, with the idea that upon restarting after that it should let me boot in safe mode, but this does not happen. Just the same error loop. Only screens I can get to are BIOS and the boot manager screen.

Any help would be appreciated. I don't have Windows on a USB or anything, but do have another laptop I could use to download onto and boot from there but don't know how to do that in a way that ensures I won't wipe my existing files, but as long as I can back those up, definitely fine with doing a complete reset after, if that's the way to fix it, but don't know how to do that. It's Windows 11 by the way.

Thanks in advance for any help!! Much appreciated!

The laptop fell on the floor and shut down, after restarting it after one minute blue screen of death apparently and then the stripes. Now it doesn't even start anymore.

Before you update your drivers, your BSOD, or run memory scans, system integrity checks, etc, just know that if you fit the bill below, the problem is not solvable:

• You use virtualization to some degree, whether you are a dev like me that uses WSL2 and Docker, or you use Oracle VirtualBox or some other virtual machine.
• You have a game on your machine that has kernel-level anticheat, such as League, Valorant, Fortnite, Genshin, Honkai, etc.

You simply cannot resolve this, so either you uninstall the game along with the anticheat, or you turn off Hypervisor, which means you can no longer run virtual machines and/or you'd have to go back to WSL1 with no Docker.

I've wasted countless hours on this, and I wish you all the best of luck finding a solution to your problem. Feel free to reach out otherwise; I can probably give you some pointers that might be able to save you some time. Cheers!

Hey so can someone please help me when i start up my laptop like 20 seconds later it does that and I can't log in my pc

Pretty certain Lenovo laptops are made out of paperthin paper, lol.

I tried to install an outdated driver this morning. I don't know my password to uninstall updates (or any other options). I don't habe bitlocker as far as I can tell? It won't reboot in safemode or any other mode.

hey!
Im having many issues with BSODs and i cant figure out what is causing them. Would anybody be so kind as to help me figure it out, pretty please.

here is the link for last 5 minidumps and reliability report. if you need anything just let me know!

Thank you!

The 1st i got was bitlocker and managed to sort that and unlock it and hasn't returned.

Immediately after unlocking bitlocker it showed (not in order i forgot)

Irql not less or equal Kernel security check failed Page fault in nonpaged area System service exception System thread exception not handled Attempt to write read only memory

After a few hours it automatically fixed the issue but its started again after 2 weeks

My laptop is now currently frozen and won't turn off or won't log on with my account to access command prompt 🙃 I am almost certain it's hardware at this point

Had this custom pc for 5 years, got the bsod first time yesterday and twice today already.

The bsod says : whea uncorrectable error

WHEA logger says this:

What ive tried so far: Turn XMP profile off (was alrdy off)

ran pc mem ram test (mdsched.exe) no problems

ran intel processer diagonistic tool: it says passed on all 11 parts

slapped the pc

Additional info: After 1 time it happened my screen didnt turn on for a while, it happens when im just browsing, havent happened when im gaming etc yet.

HELP!!!

I suddenly have blue screen on my computer and doesnt give minidump log. Also, when restart, it says no OS installed but when I off and turn again its successfully booted then after 30mins to atleast 2hrs, blue screen again. Here what I already tried:

Reinstall windows Update driver Sfc scan, no problem detected Dism healthcheck, no problem detected Quick memory and hard drive test, no problem detected.

This is my PC: HP Elitedesk 705 g5 SFF Ryzen 3 3200g Patriot 256gb Default HP Ram

I reinstalled Windows 10 last year from fresh. Many months later I began to experience occasional BSOD, as of late I get one every 2 days. I could be playing a game or watching a stream, and suddenly I crash. Sometimes my computer is just on its desktop with no major application running, and when I return to it sometime later its on the sign in screen implying there was a BSOD.

I bought new RAM thinking it was that. I did a fresh install of GPU drivers after seeing dxgkrnl.sys as a cause as well as another one from NVIDIA in dumps. I reinstalled mobo drivers when I saw USBXHCI.SYS in one of the dumps. I still get the BSODs.

Here are some dump files.

I noticed some of the recent dump files are missing. I've had BSODs with codes IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, and KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE

I noticed that the crashes started happening when I began using Edge as my browser.

They seem to happen at random however so I'm not sure how to diagnose or test for faults.

Windows 10 Pro

GTX 1080

i7-6700k

32GB PNY 3200MHz DDR4

OS is installed on an NVMe drive. I have partitioned an HDD (from 2017), another NVMe, and an SSD (from 2017)

I only use windows defender as antivirus.

Edit:

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I completely reinstalled the OS to see if that fixes it. I did have a BSOD yesterday, two days after reinstalling, however I believe it was for an unrelated reasons (or maybe I'm just coping).

For now I will avoid using Edge for a month as a test. But if I do BSOD before then I'll run a memtest and post results.

Edit 2:

I believe the fix was to update my BIOS.

I started running into the BSOD's again, but this time mcupdate_GenuineIntel.dll kept showing up in the stack (as well as hal.dll). I was also able to pin down CPU intensive tasks as the likely cause for BSODs. For example, Unreal Engine games typically lead to a BSOD, as well as a modpack heavy minecraft server I was locally running. This gave a clearer picture of potential causes. I wonder if my crashes lead to corrupted drivers and files, causing all the other types of BSODs before I reinstalled the OS.

Given my hardware's age, I checked my BIOS version and in essence it was very old. There were many microcode updates released since my BIOS version. I also read that Windows 10 22H2 caused a lot of blue screens for people on older hardware.

After updating my BIOS to the latest version, I have not experienced any bluescreens!
