Windows 10: My laptop can bluescreen at any time as long as it is turned on, with vgk.sys

Since last September, my laptop has been consistently blue-screening at random times every day whenever I turn it on, mostly when I don't have a game running, whether I'm using a web browser or some other software or it just stays on the desktop and I'm not doing anything with it, it can blue-screen. The codes I've encountered more often are KMODE_EXPECTATION_NOT_HANDLED, and a System related code that always has vgk.sys on the line below it. it's very annoying to me because of this problem I've lost all my progress many times when I was about to finish my work and I've had to start all over a

Laptop takes too long time to reboot to desktop on Windows 10

Hi David,

As per the description I understand that you are facing issues with booting the laptop to desktop as it is taking long time. Do not worry we will help you with this issue.

• Do let us know the make and model of your laptop?
• What is the current version Windows 10 installed on your laptop?

This issue might have occurred due to incorrect settings to startup the device. Let us try the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

Step 1: I suggest you to check if
Fast Startup option on your device is enabled.

Fast startup is a new feature in Windows to help your PC start up faster after shutting down. When turned on, Windows does this by using a hybrid shutdown (a partial hibernate) method that saves only the kernel session and device drivers (system
information) to hibernate (hiberfil.sys) file on disk instead of closing it when you shut down your PC.

Steps:

• Press Windows +
  X key and click Control Panel.
• Click on Power options.
• Click on Choose what the power buttons do.
• Click on Change settings that are currently unavailable. If it prompts to click on yes, then click
  Yes.
• Make sure Turn on fast startup (Recommended)
  option is Enabled/ check marked under shutdown settings.
• If not, check mark it and click Save changes
  to configure the settings.

Step 2: Run the Power Troubleshooter


Power troubleshooter find and fix problems with your computer's power settings to conserve power and extent battery life

• 
  Type Troubleshooting in the
  Search bar on the desktop and press Enter.
  
• 
  In the Troubleshooting window, click on
  View All on the left pane.
  
• 
  Click on Power.
  
• 
  Click on Advanced and then click on
  Run as Administrator.
  
• 
  Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.
  

Hope it helps you to boot the system faster. Let us know for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

Thank you.
