    Hello Microsoft Community,I would like to know what is the best way to track faulty driver that's been causing my BSOD since June.I'm currently using WhoCrashed to know about these BSODs it does not reveal which driver/software is faulty.Also to note, I have just restarted my laptop last week and i uninstalled all incoming Window updates and disabled driver updates as well.Hope you guys can help me since I can't seem to solve this issue for a month now.Thanks a lot.

    :)

    Pinpointing Faulty Driver Causing Memory BSODs

    Hello!

    Wanted to get some advice on pinpointing which driver is faulty on my machine. I recently built a desktop, installed Windows 10 on it (specs are in the OneDrive folder linked below).

    I keep running into BSODs while using the machine after powering it on- it typically happens while I'm playing Overwatch.

    At first, they varied widely- I got errors like:

    • kmode exception not handled
    • driver_irql not less or equal
    • driver overran stack buffer
    • attempted execute of noexecute memory

    After doing some reading, I realized it was a memory issue, and using the Windows Debugging Tool I found that they were probably caused by wdf01000.sys, but wasn't able to go farther than that. I messaged the MS support, they recommended reinstalling Windows-
    I did, and it was fine for a while.

    Now it's starting to come back... but I would get an error saying "memory management" as soon as the lock screen appeared. I ran the Windows memory diagnostic, but that came out clean.

    I enabled the Driver Verifier for all non-Windows driver and went through the "clean boot" procedure (went into system configuration, disabled all non-Windows services from startup and disabled everything under startup in task manager). Now everything is
    fine- but when I power down my computer, it shows me a BSOD with an error code, "driver verifier found faulty driver" - but it won't tell me which one. As of now, I have a working desktop with a faulty driver currently disabled lurking somewhere...

    After going through this clean boot process, I noticed that as soon as I started my keyboard software (Logitech Gaming Software 8.91), I'd get a BSOD with the error "system exception thread not handled"- so I uninstalled that, but the Driver Verifier is
    still showing the BSOD when I power down.

    So: I am relatively sure that one of my drivers is faulty, cause the RAM test came out clean. I want to pinpoint which driver is causing these crashes, but I don't know how other than enabling them upon startup one at a time.

    Followed the procedures mentioned in

    Any tips on where to start? Thanks for the help in advance!

    I found this little piece of software helpful:
