Windows 10: Persistent BSODs, Please Help

Hello,

For about 3 months I've been getting several BSODs about once every few days. I'm almost certain that one contributing factor is a driver issue with my USB DAC amp from FiiO https://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E10K-Hea.../dp/B00LP3AMC2, however, I haven't been able to fix this issue nor do I believe that singular driver is the cause for all of my BSOD woes.

My Windows 10 version is 1909 and I have attatched the V2 Zip file to this post. Please tell me if any additional information is required.

Thank you in advance.

:)

BAD_POOL_HEADER BSOD, Dump File attached


Hi Groggubus,

Welcome to the 10forums

Please remove / disable items from the startup in taskmanager
These programs could interfere with the boot process giving you trouble and increase the boot time.

Daemon tools, Alcohol 120% and Power Archiver Pro uses SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD), which is a well known cause for BSOD's.
Please remove Daemon Tools and run the SPTD pass through remover.

1. Uninstall Daemon Tools
2. Download the SPTD standalone installer and follow these steps:
   • Double click the executable to open it
   • Click on the button shown below

If the button is grayed out, like in the image, there is no more SPTD installation on your system, and you can close the window

Please follow this suggestion for the BSOD

1. Please open BitDefender and go to the modules,
2. Go to the firewall settings,
3. Uncheck 'Block port scans in the network',
4. Reboot your system <-- IMPORTANT

 

Persistent BSOD ntoskrnl.exe

Ok understood CW. Could it be possible that even though the memory used is in the QVL list for the motherboard that it would still cause BSODs? I don't really feel like futzing with Memtest so would next steps be updating to latest BIOS, installing all RAM and then retesting?
