Windows 10: BSOD - IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL + PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA: dxgkrnl.s

Hi guys, I've been getting some crashes on my computer lately. Soft crashes from games which do not require a full computer restart. However, I have noted the following:

1) On one occasion when running a semi-GPU intensive program, I experienced a BSOD with the error code: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I don't think I have the .dmp file for this anymore.
2) I was running a virus scan overnight and turned my monitors off. By the next morning, when I turned on my monitors (and pressing keys on my keyboard to wake it up), I was met with a BSOD. Checking the minidump file indicated to me that the BSOD only occurred when I sent input to my keyboard, meaning that the scan and PC was running all night/morning, up until that point. In this minidump, it pinpointed that dxgkrnl.sys failed.

What I have done to troubleshoot:

• Full scan with Malwarebytes and Windows Defender
• Uninstall Nvidia drivers with DDU and install the most recent drivers (and even tried an older one too)
• Full mem86 test - PASS
• Furmark test - no crashes

• Specs:
• Windows 10 Pro (V. 1803)
• GTX1080
• Tomahawk B350
• 16GB RAM @ 3200Mhz

Appreciate any suggestions or advice to keep this from happening!

BSOD Hardware or Driver issue? IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL AND PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA.

Hello!

I am getting a BSOD almost everytime I push my computer for games sometimes even just browsing the internet. I've seen lots of BSODs but the most common is MEMORY_MANAGEMENT but I have encountered IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL AND PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA.

I've reinstalled my graphic driver, updated to windows 10, used ccleaner, ran my antivirus, ran memtest, made sure my drivers are up to date and have run out of ideas.

I'm attaching my dmp files but if anything else is needed I would be happy to get that. I can continue adding dmp files after any more BSODs if that would help too.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA BSOD for Windows 10? (.DMP File Included)

I was given this laptop knowing very well that it was having frequent BSOD (specifically IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL errors) but I seem to have fixed that particular BSOD.

It's been a solid 48 hours since the last error, but just now as I was playing a game, the computer crashed, leaving a PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error behind.

Included in the following link is the .dmp file for said crash.

Thank you for your help in advance!
