  1. Computer is crashing Blue Screen after GPU upgrade


    I recently upgraded my GPU from an Nvidia RTX3060Ti to an AMD RX7800XT, I made the mistake of not cleaning out the Nvidia drivers before swapping over and starting too use the pc. Since then I had a few crashes after some gaming use, every 20 min or so in Rust and loading into Helldivers 2 it woudl crash instantly and reboot. I retroosepctively went in and removed all the Nvidia drivers and updated to latest AMD drivers for GPU,CPU and Bios update. That did not work. I have since reverted the drivers for the GPU and BIOs to a previous version, I have taken the free update from Windows 10 to Wi

    Crash/blue screen

    Hi

    I assume from the title of your post Crash/Blue Screen that the PC has crashed and produced a *BSOD=[Blue Screen Of Death] =Blue Screen; and that the PC recovered from this; if and when you see the Blue Screen write the Stop Code down; recover the PC or use one that is working to access the net and look up the Stop Code.

    nb: You may be able to view this with a [*BlueScreenView] application, google for this.

    Edit Link - Blue screen of death (STOP error) information in dump files.

    Description
    ===========

    BlueScreenView scans all your minidump files created during 'blue screen
    of death' crashes, and displays the information about all crashes in one
    table. For each crash, BlueScreenView displays the minidump filename, the
    date/time of the crash, the basic crash information displayed in the blue
    screen (Bug Check Code and 4 parameters), and the details of the driver
    or module that possibly caused the crash (filename, product name, file
    description, and file version).
    For each crash displayed in the upper pane, you can view the details of
    the device drivers loaded during the crash in the lower pane.
    BlueScreenView also mark the drivers that their addresses found in the
    crash stack, so you can easily locate the suspected drivers that possibly
    caused the crash.

  3. Blue Screens & Computer Crashes

    I keep getting Blue Screens that crash my computer. Many different "codes" come up to tell support techs. Many trusted techs tried by remote access to my computer. None succeded(sp?). I came to the Community and found several suggestions and a tech came
    on to chat and was authorized to gain remote access. Afterwards, I had no blue screen crashes for a day & just now had another blue screen.

    Can someone help?

    Blue Screen error with Bad_System_Config_Info after an upgrade

    Hi Jan,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate the efforts take by you in resolving the issue. I understand that after an upgrade you are receive Blue Screen error on the computer with Bad_System_Config_Info. I’ll help you with the issue.



    However, please let us know:



    • May I know the update that was installed on the computer recently?
    • What is the complete model number of the computer that you are using?


    The “Bad_System_Config_Info” error means that something is wrong with the registry on your PC and you'll need to return to a previous configuration. I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article

    Error 0x74: Bad_system_config_info
    and see if that helps.



    Note: The last step in the above article talks about performing a reset on the computer. Resetting the computer will delete all the files and applications from the computer. Do not perform reset on your computer.



    You may also want to refer the steps mentioned in the article
    Troubleshoot blue screen errors
    . Select
    After an update was installed
    and perform the suggested steps.



    Let us know the results.
