Windows 10: BSOD when starting or exiting games, and also random freezes

Getting a BSOD after trying to launch different games all with different errors, most common being the watchdog error and unexpected kernel mode trap. Says the file that causes it is BEDaisy.sys but i couldn't find anything online that could help.

Random freezes or BSODs (In windows drivers)

Basically you need to go back to the step described in my post #121

As the freeze happens when you leave the system idle for a while it is most likely a driver associated with a background process that starts up when the system is idle for while. You might be able to search the event information logs to check which services started around the exact time of the freeze.

 

Computer freezes after exiting games

Hi! Starting from about a month ago, my newish (3 month old) PC starts freezing after I close a game. I've also made it happen by running a 3DMark benchmark, but that app cycles through multiple benchmarks, so it could be the same effect.

The freeze happens a few seconds (1-30s) after exiting the game and is occasionally followed by a BSOD (error code: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT), which is itself frozen (it never goes past 0% when collecting files, even after hours). If I power cycle the PC right after a freeze, it often freezes a few seconds after starting windows as well, but if I wait for it to "cool down" for a few hours, I can use it normally (including playing heavy games for an extended amount of time).

Here's what I've tried so far:

• Ran SFC /scannow. It found and fixed a few things (looking at the logs, it was faulty BT drivers), but no change
  
• Tried a few GPU-related things that I found around the web, including reverting to older drivers, changing power settings, etc.
  
• Tried running games in borderless instead of fullscreen
  
• Eventually, I replaced the GPU entirely. The issue occurred again with the other GPU (and didn't repro on the other computer I put my old card in), so it's probably not a hardware issue in the GPU
  
• Ran Memtest86 now, no error found
  
• I have a dual screen setup, going through a KVM. Simplified all that by plugging it directly on a single screen, no change
  
• Updated the BIOS
  
• Updated MB chipset firmware, updated other drivers through Windows Update
  
• Swapped the PSU
  
• Monitored the temperature of all components while the crash happens. Nothing seems out of the ordinary.
  
• Tried to get a dump or minidump, but the freeze prevents Windows from writing it to disk, it seems.
  

I'm starting to run out of ideas, so if anyone recognizes this pattern or can suggest diagnostic steps, that would be really appreciated!

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (win32kbase.sys) Bsod ONLY when exiting game.


Hi, I've never had any issues like this with my PC, but whenever I play this particular game 'Life is Strange', upon clicking 'exit game' this BSOD appears, and only then. Other games run fine, and this game itself runs fine, it only happens upon exiting.

The error: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (win32kbase.sys)

My system:
i7 3770k
GTX 980 Ti
16GB Corsair Vengeance
Windows 10 Pro (CLEAN install, not an upgrade)
Asus Rampage V Maximus

NONE of my components are overclocked, and are all running very cool.

Things I've tried:
- Clean install of nvidia graphics drivers.
- Unplugging all devices beside mouse and keyboard.

I've memtest and had no errors with my memory. Again, these BSOD's ARE NOT random, they happen ONLY upon exit of this particular game, and I can't figure out why.

Any suggestions are much appreciated, thank you.
