Windows 10: PC Crash with Memory Dump

It happens somewhat intermittently, but my PC will randomly hang up and restart, and I haven't been able to figure out why. Sometimes it just hangs up while a buzzing noise comes from the speakers before it restarts itself, or sometimes the audio gets distorted for a while and *then* it freezes with the buzzing from the speakers before restarting.


It either doesn't happen at all that day and I can run the PC for hours no problem, or it happens within the first 20 minutes of booting the PC and is perfectly fine after it freezes and restarts. Not daily either, recently it's only happened like maybe once a week. I assume it's either a memory issue, or something related to the drivers, but I haven't been able to narrow it down; I updated all my drivers to their latest, and Windows Memory Diagnostics didn't turn up anything.


I uploaded the MEMORY.DMP file from my last crash to MediaFire, hopefully with this someone can finally nail down what keeps happening and I can get closer to a proper fix. Let me know if there's any other information needed to better diagnose this.

What Is Memory Dump?

No. Memory dump and being low on memory are entirely two different things.

Dump file, as the name suggests is a copy of what was in your RAM when your system crashed with a Blue screen of Death.

If your system is low on memory, you might need to add RAM to the device. How much RAM is currently installed?

 

When my system crashes, doesn't matter what I do I can't get a memory dump to be generated

A memory dump is only generated if the crash occurs in memory.

The dump is a list of the contents of memory - nothing more than that. Thus, without having detailed knowledge of the program(s) or processes loaded in memory at the time the crash occurred, there's little to be learned from a memory dump, other than hopeful
guesses. The dumps are really intended for developers - "why did my program crash?"

 

Memory Management Crash


Generally speaking, which is also this time the case, the 0x1A crash doesn't show a specific cause.
Causes are

• drivers
• memory
• vram
• hard drive

The dump doesn't point directly to anything, but based on the causes I've mentioned and a few things in the dump there is a chance the drives are involved in it.
