    BSOD Stopcode: Reference By Pointer, no solutions are working


    I've been receiving the BSOD error every half hour for over 24 hours now. I've tried every solution including disabling antivirus, disabling most apps, going into device management, etc, etc. Please tell me how to fix this, I am a student and having a functioning laptop is a necessity.Thank you.

    :)

    BSOD "Reference By Pointer" - Minidump File

    Hello, I recently built a new PC (with the exception of an older GPU which I kept from my older machine). It's run pretty smoothly for the first couple weeks, but recently gave a BSOD with the error "Reference By Pointer".

    I found
    this thread
    which talked about potential memory issues, so I ran the Windows 10 Memory Diagnostics Tool and it found no errors. That same thread had a lot of people suggesting the OP upload the minidump file, so I did that too.

    You can download the minidump file here.

    Here's my Dxdiag as well, in case that helps.

    A few of my PC parts can only be returned for another week or so, so any information you could provide to help me track down if any parts are busted and should be returned would be really appreciated.

    Thanks, and let me know if I can provide any other info to help.

  3. BSOD (Reference by Pointer) in MS Office 2013 after Windows 10 (build 1803) Install

    OK at last I found the problem!

    Eventually I decided to Reset the PC (reinstall Windows).

    This worked, but Iater, after starting to install my programs, I encountered the same problem (BSOD). At last I could isolate the problem. The BSOD (Reference by Pointer) - only on "save as" from Word 2013 and Powerpoint 2013 - was caused by Groupwise 2012
    free email client. I thoroughly checked that this was the actual cause of the problem, for before installation it did not give the error, but after install it started giving the error.

    But I used Groupwise client on Windows 10 version 1709 without a problem. The Reference-by-Pointer error (On MS Office) only started occurring after installing version 1803 update

    Can someone explain why this little program could cause this?

    And, is there a solution to the problem?
