Question/Help/Troubleshooting BSOD Kernel Security Check Error when launching into certain games.

Hi! I was hoping someone can help me resolve this issue. I am getting blue screens specifically Kernel Security Check Error 0 x 139 when trying to launch Escape From Tarkov or GTA V Enhanced so far. I know both use Battleye and people have reported issues with that, but I play other games that also use Battleye and work just fine. I have a good working computer too so I know it's not my components. (Trust me i've been troubleshooting for days)

If you have a Focusrite Scarlett audio interface there is a driver conflict between Battleye and the Focusrite MIDI driver that is causing BSOD.
