Windows 10: BSOD when using dual monitors

PC specs:
OS: WINDOWS 10 PRO 1909 BUILD 18363.836
CPU: AMD RYZEN 3 1300X
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 DDR3 128bit
MOB: GIGABYTE AB350M GAMING 3-CP
PSU: TACENS RADIX IV-450W
RAM: CORSAIR 16GB DDR4 1064.1 MHz

MONITOR:
BenQ GL2450 24"
AOC U2879VF 28"

HDD:
SAMSUNG SSD 840 EV0 250 GB
WDC WD5000AAKX-001CA0
WDC WD10JPVX-60JC3T0
TOSHIBA MK5065GSXF

Whenever I am running a dual monitor setup I get a slew of BSOD errors:
* STOP CODE: DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL // WHAT FAILED: NDU.SYS
* STOP CODE: DPC WATCHCODE VIOLATION
* KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED // FAILED: NDU.SYS
* SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED // FAILED: NDU.SYS
* KERNEL SECURITY CHECK FAILURE
+ KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED // FAILED: FWPKCLNT.SYS

No BSOD errors when using only the 28" AOC (configured at 3840x2160) or only the BenQ 24" @ 1920x1080
The GPU is my main suspect despite the fact that it can handle more than one monitor. It has updated drivers. The PSU is only 450W, although I doubt that it has much influence on powering the monitors. Reluctant to change the PSU or GPU without having a clear idea as to the probable cause of the BSOD when using a dual monitor configuration. Any thoughts are welcome. TIA.

BSOD When using dual monitors - ?Intel Graphics problem


Hello everyone,

This is a problem I faced in Windows 7. I performed an upgrade to Windows 10 Pro and I'm still facing the same BSOD.

I've only really noticed this when having both monitors turned on but I think it has happened a couple of times when I've only had one monitor on. It only usually happens when the screens have gone into power saving mode and I come back and move the mouse. It doesn't happen every single time, it's a little sporadic.

As requested I have attached the logs using the forum's tools. My system specs on my profile are also up-to-date. Below is a list of steps I've already taken:

• Tested RAM (ran Memtest 16hrs+)
• Flashed BIOS to its latest version
• Upgraded/downgraded Intel drivers for graphics
• Virus/malware scans (no viruses etc.)

Please advise.

Any help is appreciated in advance.

Thanks,

Liam
