  1. Driver Verifier BSOD Loop


    My PC is stuck in a BSOD loop with the code DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION. Previously I was able to enter the recovery menu and tried using the command prompt to reset but doing so didn't fix the issue, and it now reaches the BSOD before the recovery menu can open. Following that, I was able to enter the BIOS a few times before the BSOD happened again. I have since made a USB boot drive, but am not able to do anything to change the boot settings. Twice instead of the BSOD I did get a different screen, saying a required device isn't connected or can't be accessed, with the error code 0xc00

    :)

  3. Stuck in Driver Verifier Detection Violation loop

    As per someones advice on this forum, I had enabled Driver Verifier to potentially fix a BSOD, i am now stuck in a BSOD loop

    I would appreciate anyones help as since enabling Driver Verifier i have not been able to log in

    NONE of the troubleshoot options from windows recovery are working - have tried all of them, all failing at some point or the other

    Command Prompt does not execute the driver verifier reset to any success

    I have RESET windows (kept personal files) and upon restart was still stuck in BSOD loop

    i am able to reach log in screen in safe mode, but my password and pin do not work, so still unable to log in. only option from this point is to shutdown or restart

    With all information above taken into account - does anybody have any advice on how to DISABLE driver verifier, where all perviously suggested methods have no worked?

    Any help much appreciated thank you

    Driver Verifier BSOD Loop

    Windows 10 Driver Verifier BSOD loop.. how to get out of it?

    Though I also was stuck in a Verifier BSOD loop, in my case I had to log in before an unavoidable BSOD occurred. (The boot drive is a SSD with legacy BIOS, not UEFI, but I also could not break the loop using function keys.) However, after two successive
    failures, on the third try the ongoing problem was detected by Windows, and I was offered alternatives - one of which was to change startup options, which, after reboot, allowed me to select Safe Mode. I was then able to "run" "Verifier" and select the option
    to delete all current settings. This stopped the Verifier itself from producing BSOD and broke the loop, allowing a normal reboot. I am now attempting to see whether the driver the Verifier failed on is what was causing problems. If Microsoft has no correction
    to Verifier application forthcoming, they may still be able to change the default settings behind the scenes in the visual menu to run Verifier only one time. This is an option in the command line version.
