Windows 10: BSOD at random times. WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

As of This Saturday my PC began blue screening in the middle of gaming, idle, playing on facebook, etc etc. There appears to be no common correlation. I checked the event logs and found that it appears that dump files arent being created "Event ID 45, volmgr, The system could not sucessfully load the crash dump driver." I ran bluescreenview and it shows nothing.

Random but frequent BSOD - whea_uncorrectable_error

Thanks for the reply!

The troubleshoot didn’t come with any new suggestions that I haven’t already tried. Remove new hardware (already tried) or and update windows (already tried).

BIOS and Chipset have already been updated as well.



I have already tried uninstalling all driver and then install the provided from ASUS’ website and then restart, but didn’t fix it.

I tried removing all bloatware (from windows such as candy crush). And I tried remove pretty much all drivers from Device Manager, until I couldn’t use USB devices any more, but windows automatically installed some driver even though internet was disconnected
after restart.

The above didn’t fix the issue unfortunately.

Furthermore, I did another prime95 test of 3 hours which again delayed the BSOD, 15 min after I ended prime95 I got a BSOD. So it seems to delay it.

Hi Mikkel,

Thank you for responding.

As most of the troubleshooting steps couldn't resolve the issue,
I suggest you to download Windows 10 ISO file, create an installation media from other working computer to perform Startup Repair of the computer that you are unable to boot.

Using ISO file to perform Startup Repair will allow the device to boot the system to Windows Recovery Environment and tries to repair the device.

Step 1:
I suggest you to try Startup Repairing the Windows and check if it helps.

Download the Windows 10 ISO and create a Media Creation tool and then perform Startup Repair.

Refer to the following link: Installing Windows 10 using the media creation tool

(Refer to the section "Installing Windows 10 using the media creation tool” in the above article for creating the tool).

Step 2: After creating the tool perform Startup Repair.

I would like to inform that, if your Windows 10 is not able to boot or startup, Startup Repair will come into action and try to diagnose and fix the issue. It will scan system files, registry settings, configuration settings and
more and try to fix the problem on its own, automatically.

Perform the Startup Repair:

• 
  When your computer starts, wait for the manufacturer logo to check the option for boot menu, it will usually be
  F12.
  
• 
  The boot menu key might differ with each manufacturer. If you are unable to find the boot menu key, you may refer the user manual.
  
• 
  Restart the computer, when the manufacturer's logo is displayed, keep pressing the
  Boot menu option key to enter the boot menu and change the boot option to
  CD\DVD ROM.
  
• 
  After you boot your computer using Windows 10 DVD, a black screen appears with gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press any key.
  
• 
  Select the correct time and
  Keyboard type.
  
• 
  Click Repair your computer in the lower left corner
  
• 
  Click on Troubleshooting, advanced option and then click
  Startup Repair.
  

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of the issue, we will be happy to help you.

Thank you.

 

Hello KMaston *Smile

The WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR BSOD is likely to be hardware related:

The usual procedure is to run a series of hardware tests and report back on the results.

See the following for some guidance:

Run Prime95 to stress test your CPU. Prime95 Tutorial
Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ Tutorial
Run SeaTools to check the integrity of your HDD. SeaTools Tutorial
Run Furmark to stress test your GPU. Furmark Tutorial
Run chkdsk Chkdsk

 

Interestingly enough, this morning I go to my PC and it is blue screened. Upon restarting it my BIOS notifies me that my PC had an issue overclocking. I have never overclocked my PC (Couldn't even tell you how to do it.) but I did reset the BIOS settings a week or so ago to "Optimized Defaults" I wonder if it is trying to overclock my PC and that could be the root of everything?

 

Certainly you will find overclocking will stress your PC and make it more likely to crash. However, Optimized Defaults should not be causing you to overclock the CPU.
