Windows 10: BSOD Problem: Driver Verifier Follow-up

I have been experiencing a lot of BSOD problems. I followed the instructions on the wiki links given below to use Driver Verifier and get the DMP files, which I have linked here along with the system information generated from MSinfo32 and Speccy.


The last BSOD gave me the stop code DRIVER-IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and said that WdNisDrv.sys failed.


What are the next steps I can follow to fix this?


Thanks in advance!

BSOD - DRIVER VERIFIER DETECTED VIOLATION - AsusPTPFilter.Sys

Hello

I have an Asus ROG GL553VE , after the last windows 10 update 1803 I started to get the computer completely frozen seconds after loading to the actual gameplay of the games sometimes with a static noise and/or image starting to get white or parts of the
screen going static. Here it is what i tried so far :

• Rollback NVIDIA graphic drivers - Didn't work
• Rollback Windows 10 to 1703 - Didn't Work

What I have seen in some cases is that online games I get the screen frozen and the only to get out of it is to hard shut down on the power button of the laptop, in offline games I got the following BSOD:

• page_fault_in_nonpaged_area
• system_thread_exception_not_handled

After some searches on the Web I decided to try the built in Driver verifier of Windows 10 , the BSOD that I get is the following :

• BSOD - DRIVER VERIFIER DETECTED VIOLATION - AsusPTPFilter.Sys

Can you please advise on what to do in this situation ? are these issues related or should I run Memtest?

Thanks.

 

Driver Verifier BSOD on Start Up DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION

Update

So the PC went down the same road, became unusable and I wiped it.

Clean install number 6. Clean install 5 was to test if Windows 7 was as unstable as the Windows 10 installs. It was - this made me think it may be a hardware problem or just a really poorly supported motherboard.

Clean install 6 - this time I am being methodical in my steps and testing every step of the way. PC specs are still the same other than a new stick of DDR4. What I have done so far:

• Bought/installed a new stick of DDR4 for testing.
• Followed Gerrys advice and installed latest BIOS, even though it is in beta it is listed as a stable release.
  
• Installed Windows 10
• Installed Chipset Drivers from Gigabyte website.
• Installed latest Ethernet drivers (20_7) from Intel website.
• I have made sure to not connect the PC to the internet and have left the ethernet cable unplugged.
• Ran Verifier, rebooted with no problems, not that I was expecting there to be any.
• Installed latest drivers from Nvidia
• ran Verifier, rebooted, BSOD "DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION"
• booted into safe mode, reset Verifier, rebooted.

So this is where I am at. A completely clean install, and what seems to be problems with Nvidia drivers.

Minidump link if someone could have a look. Minidump is 021216-2203-01

021216-2203-01.7z

So I am not sure what this means. PC seems stable at the moment though there is hardly anything installed on it.

Does Verifier reporting a problem mean that there is one? What should I do from here?

 

Driver Verifier BSOD diagnosis opinions?

I used the link provided and selected the option that says the BSOD occurred while using my PC. The link suggests checking for updates and disconnecting hardware. My software is already up to date, and rather than disconnecting random hardware, I was under
the impression from that by uploading the dump files from the Driver Verifier program that from

this post, there might be some clues as to what specific driver is causing the crashes. Is that possible to determine?
