Windows 10: DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION

Hi All,


For a few months now my new MSI GS66 Stealth 10SE laptop has been crashing and giving me the blue screen of death with the error message "DRIVER_VARIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION". This mostly happens when I'm playing games on Steam but once it happened when I was downloading on Steam and once, recently, when I was using office apps and in a meeting in Teams. It seems to have started soon after I installed a second SSD in my laptop.


I have uploaded the dump files here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Av63bA5ai0eVgf5Xbl-T4rpPJWVmPw?e=lNvyYs


Can anyone help? I assume it's a driver issue. I've checked my drivers and apparently they are all up-to-date.


Thanks,

Matt

B. Third Party Drivers

All of below are AVAST

aswSnx.sys

aswbidsdriver.sys

aswSP.sys

C. Recommendations

1. Create a system restore point first so that if something wrong happens you can revert.

Type restore point in Cortana Search > Create a Restore point > Check whether against your drive, Protection is ON or not. If not ON, click Configure button below to Make it ON > Now press Create to create a restore point

2. Update your AVAST to latest. If BSOD doesn't stop, get rid of AVAST.

 

DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION

HI,

I try your recommendation, I uninstall my avast from laptop also I update all drivers, firmware (from official site of dell), and Docks TB16 firmware and drivers because mostly it happen when it is connected with docks Dell Thunderbolt Dock (TB16). Now we
will see if everything is ok.

Best regards,

Meriton

 

BSOD DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION (e6)

I have been getting this error (BSOD DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION (e6)) typically while playing video games but have seen it occur simply idling. The thing that I find strange is that I don't even have the Driver Verifier turned on. I have done the "verifier /reset" command which was one of the first things I tried to do to fix it after Googling the error. I have tried a number of things to try and fix this. A non-exhaustive list includes:

• Reinstalling GPU drivers using DDR (Display Driver Remover)
• Meticulously updating every single driver for every device
• Clean out the registry using CCleaner
• Flashing BIOS
• Ran Memtest86 (RAM stress test)
• Ran Prime95 (cpu stress test)
• chkdsk

I'm far from computer illiterate but this has me completely stumped. So I come to you, the experts, hat in hand. Please help me. You're my only hope.
