Windows 10: BSOD: ntoskrnl.exe and more

To bluescreens in a row, I attached the file. I checked with another program and the driver ntoskrnl.exe is still the issue. I hope my hardware is alright... Shall I run memtest 86?

 

had another one, again ntoskrnl.exe. But they are not as frequent as they used to be so thats a progress.

RAM TEST


Run MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums



Note



MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.

 

Will do this. Do you know to what ntoskrnl.exe is related and what part of my software could be damaged if the ram is alright? Windows? Drivers? Registry? Something else?

 

Ntoskrnl.exe is a Windows kernel file, it is the core of Windows that is referenced to when it is the last active. It is pretty much a standard thing to assume that it isn't correct. If the core of Windows has problems you would experience so much more problems then bluescreens.

If the memory is alright then you have other hardware problems, I noticed that driver verifier caused the crashes but driver verifier was unable to mark a driver as the cause what indicates hardware problems.

 

I ran memtest for 9 Passes, 0 errors, which means my ram is fine and Im very happy for that. What shall I do next?

I found the culprit. It might sound very stupid, but it is my keyboard. I thought back on when the bluescreens first started to occur and it was when I swapped my keyboard. I swapped it back and didnt have a bluescreen for 3 days. However, the keyboard without bsod is garbage and the other one is great but apparently it causes bsods. It is a Corsair Strafe, the one with the red keys. What would you suggest doing? There are no drivers available as far as I know.

 

No drivers = get rid of it and get another one which actually does have drivers for Windows 10.

 

Hello,

I have only had 2 Bluescreens in the past six days (since I swapped the keyboard) which is great. However, I had another one today. What is the procedure to fix / check the issue? It was again caused by the driver ntoskrnl.exe. Caused by address: ntoskrnl.exe+142480. Maybe you can trace back the root of this problem with this informatio

edit: Is there safe way to check the functionality of the SSD? I've only investigated my HDD, which appears to be fine. However, my computer mainly crashes when I play a game which is located on the ssd.

 

Unfortunately that information is pretty much useless.
The ntoskrnl.exe file is a Windows kernel file, the Windows kernel files are simply never the cause. I haven't seen a situation where there were enough problems to point the cause to the ntoskrnl.exe file, you need a lot of serious (more then BSOD's) problems to point to the kernel.
You'll need to provide another upload to provide the right information.

I don't want to complaint, but this is the 3rd time I'm asking for system specs, they're very valuable for troubleshooting.
Is there a reason why you don't give them?

 

I apologize, whener you posted this the issues seemed to have vanished but it returned later. The tutorial is outdated, it redirects me to windows seven forums. I will try to copy everything manually.

is this fine as of right now? Any further information required?

 

I posted it a few times, I don't believe that happened every time.

The tutorial isn't outdated, it is from that site, you have to fill in your system specs manually.

 

I am very grateful for your help, don't worry. I might have overlooked it twice. Look, I am actively trying to figure out a solution and I tried to follow each and every step when possible. The issue is that when I select the manual option and then "edit system specs", it redirects me to a site called sevenforums and not tenforums. But I will fill the out directly on the website here.

 

That tool is written for sevenforums (a sister forum) which is why you're redirected to it.
I have filled in my system specs (better) using it, but I had to manually fill in everything. It is been a while but I believe I couldn't copy/paste anything.
