Windows 10: Random BSoD Triggering Boot Loop with More BSoDs

I built this computer roughly three weeks ago, and for the first two weeks it was running fine. In the last week though, I've been getting random blue screens that send my computer into a loop of more blue screens for the next ~5-10 minutes. Eventually the computer tries running auto-repair, finds nothing to repair, and starts up normally . . . only to have the process repeat some amount of time later.

The stop codes I've seen are as follows:
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (most common)
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (in one instance, listed the source as volsnap.sys; otherwise, no more info)
and just today, CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED.

There doesn't seem to be any consistent pattern to the crashes. They've happened while I was playing Fallout, installing mods through Nexus Mod Manager, and just sitting here trying to find similar problems on the forums.

I'm going through the BSoD posting instructions right now. I've uploaded the archive generated by the log collector tool.

If it helps, my specs:
Motherboard: MSI Z170a Gaming Pro
CPU: Intel i7-6700K
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 4x4GB
Graphic Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 1070

I'm so lost here. I've tried reinstalling Windows, running a disk check (passed), running a memory test (all RAM cards passed), reseating the RAM in case a card had come loose (no difference) . . . and the computer was working fine for two weeks, so I have no idea what's going wrong.

BSOD Loop on boot

Hello,

Earlier today my computer crashed into a BSOD and ever since then it is stuck on a BSOD loop when trying to boot into windows.

Things I have tried so far:

-Booting from a USB Windows (Loads the windows logo then BSOD)

-Letting it do automatic repair (BSOD)

-Letting it do disk check (BSOD)

-Running it with different RAM sticks (BSOD)

-Running it without the 1060 (BSOD)

-Clearing BIOS settings (BSOD)

I am at a loss. Any help appreciated.

System

-Intel i5 6600k

-Nvidia 1060

-16gb ram

-gigabyte z170x

 

BSOD due to DPC_Watchdog_Violation

I have done some of the steps suggested and it seems the BSOD goes away in general but it's still consistently triggered by one activity, downloading via qBitorrrent. It happens consistently, with the same error code, DPC watchdog violation

Here's my new MiniDump file: 012618-31203-01.rar

Are there any more clues as to why this specific application consistently trigger the BSOD? I've tried other similar application like uTorrent but it still triggers BSOD regardless of which application I use.

Thank you again for your help.

 

Hi Ferris,

Welcome to the 10forums *Smile

What memory test did you run? I assume it is the built-in memory test, because all others I know don't mention that a card has completely pasesd (you can run those tests infinitely)
