volmgr 161 crash

Hi,

My computer is frequently crashing. The crash does not have a blue screen or anything. It becomes unresponsive before the screen blacks out and the audio freezes up too. The only other item of note is that before blacking out, my monitor shows a popup for "Display Port 1" as if it has changed. However, this is the display that I always use for my computer.

Event viewer typically shows 'Error volmgr 161' as well as 'Information FilterManager 6 npsvctriq' prior to the 'Critical' forced shut down.

None of the other threads on this topic seem to have an easy solution. Instead, they all ask the poster to share their minidump file to try to find a specific problem, so here's mine.

Volmgr 161 + WHEA

I'll list out here what works on my system. I first uncheck "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives" to enable the controls on the dialog. I select C: in the drive list and change the settings to match what is shown in this screenshot:

It should look like that after hitting the Set button. Hit OK until the dialog closes and restart the computer. Go back into the dialog and select D: in the drive list and change the settings to match this screenshot:

Hit the Set button and OK out until the dialog closes. Then restart the computer. That should set the pagefile for drive D: and it shows that in my msinfo32 information as well the D:\pagefile.sys showing up when I run "dir d: /ah" in a command prompt.

Awesome! Hopefully that works and we take a big leap toward the answer *Smile - - - Updated - - - The results are in- just experienced the same BSOD. Was only using Chrome this time… DumpFiles folder I made and pointed it toward is still empty. No dmp file created as the BSOD continued to stay on 0%
