    BSOD's randomly since I built my computer about 3 months ago, 3 today


    Ever since I put together my computer back in early October, I have been getting random BSOD's while trying to play games such as Fortnite, CS:GO, BO4, and R6S. When I built my computer, I copied Windows over from an old Western Digital 500GB on to a Samsung 970 Evo 250GB installed in my system. I thought that was the cause of the BSOD's, so I did a fresh install of Windows. It seemed like it fixed the issue, but the BSOD's started again in about a week.

    I hadn't blue screened in a while, but today, for an unknown reason, I blue screened 6 times. The first three stop codes seemed memory related, so I ran memtest and it did find issues. However, I tested both RAM sticks alone, and neither of them failed the memtest. I then ram the memtest with both ram sticks installed and it didn't fail! I thought it was just RAM that had dirty pins or wasn't seated correctly, but after trying to play Fortnite, it blue screened another time. What failed was a driver from AMD, atikmdag.sys. Then, about an hour later, also while trying to play Fortnite, it blue screened twice due to hardware.sys, something else driver related. So now I am confused as to whether the BSOD's are memory related, graphics related, or something else. Help would be very much appreciated!

  2. computer hang & BSOD

    3 dumps point to 3 different device drivers:

    • One blames McAffee.
    • One Blames your NVIDIA Virtual Audio Driver
    • The last one says your Intel WiFi network adapter
    I suggest completely uninstalling McAffee and using
    built in defender in its place for some time.

    The next step would be completely uninstalling and reinstalling both the above said drivers.

    BSOD DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE randomly after cold boot/sleep


    For the past month I have been getting random BSOD's all with driver power state failure. They happen randomly, usually within the first 5-10 minutes of cold booting or waking my computer. Steps I have taken to attempt to fix the problem:
    1. Reinstalled GPU drivers/ tried old drivers
    2. Fresh installed Windows 1803, still happened, then fresh installed 1709
    3. Disabled Fast Boot
    None of these things fixed the issue, any help would be much appreciated at pinpointing the issue. Thanks

    BSOD: Page Fault in nonpaged area File: cdd.dll

    I'm running windows 10 build 14393 on a laptop.

    Some backstory: I've been getting very frequent BSODs with the error being "kernel security check failure"- about once every 2 days. I think I finally narrowed the issue down to being caused by my new usb 3 hub. I unplugged the hub and got no BSODs for about a week- at least until today.

    Today I got a BSOD but instead the error was "Page Fault in nonpaged area" (a message that I've never seen on this computer before). The file concerned was cdd.dll. What could be causing this type of BSOD?

    My ram is new (got it around the same time as the USB hub- 2 months ago). However, this is the first time I've gotten the page fault error message in the 2 months with the new ram, and the "kernel security check failure" errors kept occurring when I put the old ram in as a test. Memtest also completed 1 pass fine. Other than that, no hardware has been "changed" per-se, but I did open my laptop and put it back together to replace the screen which had broken.

    If you'd like to read the above paragraphs in bullet form:

    • 2 months ago: Replaced screen
    • 2 months ago: Changed RAM
    • 1.6 months ago: Started using new USB hub
    • 1.5 months ago: Started getting BSODs "Kernel security check failure" fairly regularly.
    • 1 month ago: Put the old ram back in
    • 1 month ago: Memtest completed successfully
    • 1 month ago: Continued to receive kernel security check failure BSODs
    • 1 week ago: Stopped using USB hub
    • 1 week ago: stopped receiving kernel security check failure BSOD
    • Today: got a BSOD "page fault in nonpaged area" with the file being cdd.dll
    • Today: chkdsk completed succesfully
