Windows 10: Random BSOD on inconsistent situation - work, game, idle.

Hi!I have a bit of a confusing issue with Windows 11 Version 23H2 OS Build 22631.4169. Randomly it would have BSOD, both when I am using computer either in non demanding circumstances as well as demanding one. I am at a bit of a lost here.System is AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and AORUS B450I16 GB 8Gb * 2 Corsair Vengence 3000Nvidia RTX 3070WD Blue SN500 NVME 500GBThe error message is as follow:<Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">- <System> <Provider Name="Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power" Guid="{331c3b3a-2005-44c2-ac5e-77220c37d6b4}" />

Random BSOD while browsing internet


BitDefender is nothing special. mwac.sys causes BSODs anywhere.
A tiny documentation can be found here: Solved Random BSODs - Windows 10 Forums
In that very thread, the suggested action apparently worked.

The storage and network filters of any third party antivirus can cause BSODs. Neither MBAM nor BitDefender is any special. For a regular antivirus, it may be shifted to an alternative; but MBAM has no alternative. So a clean install of the said program is the most feasible first step.
As far as the first step is not failing, it is better to not think for the second step. Because the BSODs are not universal, failure at the first step is not universal; and success at the second step is also not universal.
That is why I posted that my suggestion may work, or may not. Let us see where it goes.

 

Random but frequent BSOD after idling for some time.

Hello, our computers in computer labs with Dell OptiPlex 7470 often run into BSODs after certain amount of idle time. Below are the common errors we see:

• KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR
  
• CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED
  
• SYSTEM_SERVICE_ERROR
  

These are domain-joined computers, running with same Windows master image deployed through Clonezilla.

Their occurrence seems random and without pattern, one computer can show BSODs with these respective errors at different times.

Below are the steps we tried:

• chkdsk /f /r /x
  
• dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth: no error found
  
• sfc /scannow: no error found
  

(The above three commands in order)

• Hibernate and Fast Startup is disabled
  
• Power Management for screen, hard disk, computer set to never sleep in any scenario
  
• C-state control disabled in BIOS
  
• Scanned disk for any errors using the software, CrystalDiskInfo.
  
• Windows Memory Diagnostic (shows no error found)
  
• Driver Verifier (unsure of how to continue using it after its BSOD showing Verifier found violations)
  
• Cleaned and reseated RAM
  
• Swapped with SSD with same Windows image.
  
• Pulled out one of the workstations out to test environment and installed with clean windows image, does not have BSOD issue.
  

But the problem seems to be re-occurring every now and then even after all these steps.

Below I am attaching a screenshot of output of msinfo32 and all the dump files we had in one of the workstations.

Game controller causes random BSOD

Your device list doesnt indicate any game controller. Not in driver-versions text file. What controller is it? Are you using the microsoft provided driver, a driver on a disk or ? If it was installed, i would suggest going into device manager and making sure the box in the image is unchecked. Yes its for my mouse, but same thing.
