    Reference by pointer error


    Hi all,


    Have been getting BSOD sporadically for the past 2 months. This is especially troubling as my device is new (just bought it in September).


    I have uploaded a picture of the BSOD, as well as minidump file and my system information file.


    I have not installed any new hardware or driver as far as I can recall since buying the device.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.


    Tommy

    Reference by pointer error

    Good evening,

    I have been getting the error Reference By Pointer on a blue screen, then the system reboots. I can provide a minidump file, would someone be able to assist?

    Thanks,

  3. Pointers

    Points are simply a value (address) that "points" to a value. It has no extra information about what it is pointing to (hence the danger). When using arrays/indexers, the operating system knows this is a collection that is this long and is of this type. Any operation that steps outside of those constraints is caught and handled. On the other hand, if a pointer so much as points to the wrong address, all the values will subsequently be wrong.

    Pointers are faster but more risky.

    Pointers

    Incrementing a pointer is a...

    address += sizeof(type)

    ...operation. If the type is incorrect for the data contained, it will encounter all kinds of logical errors.


    The compiler takes care of incrementing a pointer--it's one of the few tasks that are indrectly managed in dealing with pointers.
