    External HDD causes BSOD on startup after Windows 11 upgrade


    Hi,I recently upgraded to Windows 11 and now I am constantly getting the dreaded BSOD when I start my PC if I do not unplug my external HDD's first. It always starts fine when they are not connected and I had no issues previously when using Windows 10 on the same PC.I'm guessing I need to somehow get my PC to ignore the external HDD when starting up, maybe the computer is trying to load from one of them, but I can't figure out how to do so. many Google searches later, still no idea.The BSOD message usually says "page fault in non paged area"My PC specs are;Processor IntelR CoreTM i7-87

    BSOD when copying files from external HDD to external HDD

    See post #5, step #20.

    The latest BSOD was with 11 customized windows driver verifier customized settings.

    The cause was a misbehaving Macrium driver.

    Uninstall and reinstall the software.

    Restart windows driver verifier.

    Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

    I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?

    External HDD causes BSOD on startup after Windows 11 upgrade

    External HDD showing on W10 but not on W11 (usb port are fine)

    I only suggested using the other PC in case you could not back up your files to the Windows 11 PC.

    Are all HDD's not working on the Windows 11 PC or just external USB?

    What normally works for this is what I gave you, so I'd at least try it if the other steps I gave didn't work.
