Windows 10: I used Driver Verifier but there is no driver name listed

I was getting a lot of BSOD whenever I open my computer first time of the day.

I ran driver verifier to check if there is any corrupted drivers or duplicated drivers.

When I restart my computer, it entered the BSOD loop with the stop code "DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION",
but it did not provide any driver names that is causing the BSOD.

After two BSOD and restarts, it boot into automatic repair, I booted into safemode to turn off the driver verifier.

I am suspecting that the unknown drivers in the driver verifier list.
There is a part where you select which driver you want to verify, I found some driver with unknown provider.

If you need any further information or minidump files, please feel free to ask me!

 DRIVER VERIFIER

Disable driver verifier and upload a new zip after another crash has occured, assuming another crash occurs.

To disable driver verifier:

• Open an admin command prompt
• Enter "verifier/reset" (without quotes)

 

Driver Related BSOD - Driver Verifier

I enabled driver verifier because no dumps were being generated and I expected a driver was the issue. I need a password from IT to uninstall Symantec though, I'll have to see if I can get the password.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

I see that you have tried multiple troubleshooting steps and I appreciate the efforts that you have taken to resolve the issue. We will try a few troubleshooting steps and see if it helps.

Please answer these questions to get clarity on this issue:

1. What is the make and model of the PC?
   
2. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to this issue?
   
3. Have you installed all pending updates and also updated all device drivers on the computer?
   

This issue can occur if some of the system files and drivers are not working as expected. As per the log files it seems that a network driver is a causing this issue.

Let us try these methods one by one to check if that helps.

Method 1: Unplug all external devices connected to the PC and restart the computer. Once you are on the desktop screen, suggest you to

update the network driver on the computer and check if that helps.

Method 2: If the issue persists, then you may download the latest network drivers from the manufacturer’s website and install them.

To uninstall a driver: Open Device Manager, right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device, and select Uninstall. Restart your PC, and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.
