    BSOD on startup - possibly caused by Windows Defender


    I am experiencing constant BSOD shortly after startup after upgrading to the latest Windows 10 Preview Build(10532). It was happening in 10525, went away after restoring to retail build, then came back when upgrading to 10532.

    I've included a mini-dump. The BSOD goes away when disabling Windows Defender. I would like to be able to use the preview build as it has updates to the precision touchpad that make it much smoother. I also want to verify this is a windows issue and not something hardware related that the preview build brings to light.

    Memtest86 ran overnight with no issues. Hard drive sentinel found no problems as well.

    :)

    BSOD on Newly Bought Laptop Caused By Driver watchdog.sys

    Hi Brandon,

    It appears the code 0x00000113 is a VIDEO_DXGKRNL_FATAL_ERROR bug which indicates that the Microsoft DirectX graphics kernel subsystem has detected a violation.

    We suggest that you follow the steps provided in the Troubleshoot blue screen errors article.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Please try to upload the zip file again, it may be that the dump files are corrupted.

    Hmm - strange. Here it is again. What about the single dump file in the first .zip attachment I posted?

    That dump is included with your 2nd upload, but unfortunately I couldn't get anything from it as it looks like it is corrupted too.

    That is very strange. I ran the log program again - as administrator, lets see if this is any different.

    Also, could this be because I am running the Preview Build 10532, and therefore they are different dump files?

    I have ran Seatools and memtest without any issues already. I can ran the other ones tonight.

    First let me know if this .zip is any different.

    Yes, that could be possible, but I can't say for sure.
    Is there a specifically reason why you are still in the preview?

    The dumps are not different.

    The XPS13 has a precision touchpad which is jerky in anything but MS Edge. The preview builds fix that. From your experience, if I have no problem with regular build, and disabling MS Defender removes the issue in Preview, should I be concerned? Especially since memtest and hard drive tests show no issue? The error codes are "page fault in non paged data" btw.
    I have a day left before I cannot return the laptop.

    How long have you ran memtest? How many passes?

    A wild guess about the error, either a driver has referenced wrong memory or the memory (RAM or the hard drive) are damaged.
     
  12. mjt1987 Win User
    I ran it for 4(I see now that you recommend 8, I can do that tonight).
    I'm curious why disabling windows defender would eliminate the issue though. I would think a driver or hardware problem would come up in other ways as well.

    BSOD on startup - possibly caused by Windows Defender

    It would be possible that some driver is interfering with it, but there are so many drivers that could do that.
    Yet, there are more methods that could cause it that are in the background.
