    Identifying driver causing BSOD

    My laptop suddenly went into BSOD with the error IRQL_NOTLESS_OR_EQUAL. I tried using a bsod viewer to identify the driver but it just states ntoskrnl.exe. I have the dump files available, will it be helpful in identifying the driver that is causing this
    issue?

    BSOD when updating W10 Insider Preview (installation)

    The BSOD minidump did not display a definitive misbehaving driver.
    All of the BSOD have been C2 Bad pool caller.
    The suggested steps for finding cause and effect are RAM testing with Memtest86+ version 5.01 and Windows driver verifier.
    If the Memtest86+ version 5.01 displays malfunctioning RAM / DIMM /MB then the troubleshooting will be completed once the hardware component is identified. If the Memtest86+ version 5.01 is negative then the next step would be windows driver verifier.
    If you prefer a clean install that is another option if hardware is ruled out.

    The memory dump will take a while to download. So it will be troubleshooted later today.

    How to identify which driver is causing BSOD

    BSOD caused by driver atikmdag.sys

    Could be another driver causing the issue.

    Suggest you follow this and post in the BSOD section of the forum.
