  1. BSOD only when pc is idling, put up with for 2+ year, cant take it any longer


    Hello, my pc was new in June 2020 and ever since July 2020 it has intermittently bluescreened at idle, never while gaming or while performing a medium or above workload, sometimes you can leave it alone overnight and it wont bother, other times it wont idle touched or untouched for more than an hour, or like today it will crash several times throughout the day while browsing youtube. sometimes goes for weeks of daily use without issue. ive tried teaching myself how to read minidumps and every other troubleshooting tool/technique i could find but im at my wits end. it seems to never be the same

    :)

    Bluetooth still on while idle

    Thanks for following the steps. Now, the settings won't take effect if you are only using normal PC idle mode. Normal functionality of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi settings are to stay connected even if PC is idle. With the settings that you have created, we would
    suggest that you set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or
    Hibernate
    once idle. In this way, the settings "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" should take effect.

    To set your PC to automatically go to Sleep or Hibernate when idle, please follow these steps:

    • Open Control Panel, set view by: Small
      icons.
    • Look for Power Options.
    • Click on Change when the computer sleeps on the left pane.
    • Set a timer.

    Please try it out. Hope it helps. If you have any other concerns, don't hesitate to come back to us.

  3. Win 10 backgroundTaskHost.exe crashed - Constant BSOD when idle

    Hi Mala,

    Thank you for your quick reply.

    Here are the answers to your questions:



    1.
    What is the make and model of the computer?

      • Dell Latitude 5591 Purchased 2019
    2.
    Which version of Windows is installed on your machine?

      • Win 10 Pro, Version 1809, OS Build 17763.529
    3.
    Have you tried booting the PC in Safe mode to know if the issue persists?

      • No, would be hard to work in safe mode
    4.
    Have you installed any non-Microsoft security software on your PC?

      • No, nothing


    I’m receiving 2 types of BSODs

    UEXPECTED_STORE_EXCEPTION



    It happens while I work, usually browsing. I think always when browsing. The computer gets into waiting mode (mouse icon) and BSODs in a couple of seconds after that.



    REGISTRY_ERROR

    When idle, I come back to this BSOD after leaving the computer for a while.



    Attached another 2 dumps.

    backgroundTaskHost.exe.18816.zip

    backgroundTaskHost.exe.4552.zip



    Perhaps you can tell me how I can force more dumps? Memory dumps? It stays on 0% complete forever.



    Thank you,

    Gil

    BSOD only when pc is idling, put up with for 2+ year, cant take it any longer

    Brand new PC BSoD

    • My last two PCs seem to be set to automatically restart when receiving a BSoD, but through what little I can read on my minidumps the codes seem to be 0x00000124 on both computers. I guess that narrows it down to a driver/program/script that I have installed
      on both PCs.
    • Yes, but nothing that I would imagine could cause system crashes. the Adobe suite, Steam, Discord, and my drawing tablet (that I've had for 2 years)
    • Nothing specific. It seems to be triggered at any time. Idle, browsing the web, playing videos or just reading. There's no pattern I can see.
