Windows 10: BSOD at startup, new build - DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION - RzDev_00b6.sys

New PC build and have been having BSOD issues despite several re-installs of Windows, leading me to think it may be a hardware issue but perhaps someone here can gleam something from the minidump. The initial driver failing was mostly ntoskrnl, but also Ntfs.sys and NETIO.sys, but after enabling driver verifier it seems this "RzDev_00b6.sys" is the issue.The BSODs occur at startup only; if the system successfully starts up then it seems to run stably, with only one incident of a lock-up during operation.==================================================Dump File : 061823-8515-01.dmp

Driver Verifier BSOD on Start Up DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION

OK I'm going to keep this thread updated as I go through troubleshooting this issue.

As I have received no help with my minidumps, I am going through the process of learning to do it myself.

This seems
like a good guide to learn the very basics.

What has happened so far:

• New computer build, unstable windows install, slowly degrades to where the computer is unusable. Happens on multiple clean installs.

• Continuous error and critical messages in Event Viewer, some events of note are:
  • Event 219 Kernel-PnP, failed to load driver
  • Event 7031 service control manager (dozens on start up)

• First crash will happen on start up and it eventually degrades with below events.
  • Event 5 kernel general
  • Event 2 kernel-event-tracing
  • Event 3 kernel-event-tracing
  • Event 29 kernel-boot

• Tested hardware - no faults found

• Ran Driver Verifier and Windows will keep crashing with DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION until Driver Verifier is reset in safe mode

• Started this thread, PC became too unstable and had to do a system restore, restore had minimal changes (see above)
• Have not installed the applications and drivers removed after system restore.
• PC is heading down same road again, BSOD now appearing on startup.
• Ran Driver Verifier again - same resuslts
• Installed WinDBG to start analyzing new dumps from crashes that have been happening on startup.
  • dump 1 - pool_corruption
  • dump 2 - memory_corruption
  • dump 3 - memory_corruption
  • dump 4 - ntkrnlmp.exe

From the limited knowledge I got from the guide the only information I can get from WinDBG is shown above.

So that's where I am at the moment. My next step is to run Driver Verifier again and see what I can find.

Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?
