Windows 10: BSOD Memory Management (poss. iastor.sys)

Indeed, I forgot the iastor.sys doesn't have to be RAID.

If you would give me an updated zip file created by the DM Log Collector tool, I'll take another extra good look.

 

I have removed all vestiges of Acronis from the registry and renamed the drivers -- vsflt53.sys, vsflt61.sys and snapman.sys -- and everything seems to be working OK.

I remembered I had PerfectDisk 12 installed and there is a notice on their site that it requires special handling to remove it once Windows 10 is installed. I will work on removing it and then see if BSOD remains and will get back with you one way or the other.

thanks

 

I posted the note similar to what is below but it didn't show up ... will try again.

I believe the problem is resolved -- and that PerfectDisk 12.5 was the cause of BSOD Memory Management error.

The Acronis drivers surely didn't help, but apparently PerfectDisk was the primary cause of the crash. It makes sense now -- I could use the computer for 3 to 5 minutes before it crashed, just enough time for PerfectDisk to begin background defragmentation. Now that PD is removed, the computer has been running over 4 hours without a hitch.

It was not possible to remove PerfectDisk through the control panel > programs interface. It had to be removed with a tool they provide for that purpose. For the record -- PerfectDisk is a good product. I just didn't upgrade from ver. 12.5 as it worked okay on Win-7 (they are on v. 14 now).

I removed all references to Acronis from the registry and everything appeared to be okay until I tried to access a USB device. It turns out that Acronis' snapman.sys was one of the drivers. Once I'd removed that, the USB worked again. FWIW, the information for removing Acronis TrueImage from the registry came from:

I have marked this thread as solved.

 

Glad you have worked it out *Smile
