    Unpredictable BSOD Critical process died - dell xps 15


    Greetings!

    I tend to get a BSOD when working in visual studio, often when doing something requiring heavy processing but occasionally simple things. The BSOD simply says CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED. In googling, it seems that might be a driver error. I tried running the verifydriver, following the directions of a windows post I found, which caused the computer to bluescreen before loading windows every time with a driver error that did not specify a specific driver that caused the problem. I'm hoping that will be somewhere in the minidump that should be within the attachment (created by following the posting directions). I was not able to figure out from the minidump what driver might specifically be the problem, if I'm even barking up the right tree about a driver issue in the first place. There doesn't appear to be any minidump from the critical process errors unfortunately.

    I've tried to do all I could on my own by searching for processes and answers before posting here. Thanks for the help!!

    :)

    I am experiencing BSOD since 15-20 days. Few days back I downgraded NVidia driver and everything was well, no BSOD. Today, when I was watching youtube, suddenly there was crash with BSOD and a very noisy buzzing sound. I get "UNEXPECTED STORE ERROR"
    or" CRITICAL PROCESS DIED"

    My laptop: Dell Vostro 3546( Windows10, 4GB, 1.9Ghz, 1TB). I have performed all diagnostics and got no error.

    I guess there is some problem with NVidia or intel graphics driver. Please Help.

    Dell XPS - CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED BSOD error on Windows 10.

    Original Title: Dell XPS - critical process died error BSOD.

    Hello,

    I have a XPS 9530 and have not so recently upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 everything was working but after a while I decided to make a clean install because I wanted to clean the system since it was starting to be a bit "dirty".

    Since then I am getting these Critical process died errors.

    I'm uploading the following files:

    Link to DMP files:

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19946541/Windows10Crashes/Minidump.zip

    Link to System Specs:

    Link to System MSInfo32 file:

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19946541/Windows10Crashes/System.nfo

    is my first question here, I don't know if this is the right place or if this is the right way. Just let me know.

    Thanks in advance.

    If this does not stop the BSOD, look at the supportpage from Dell for additional drivers ?

    Thanks for your help. I installed the newest version of the driver and things seemed ok for about a day, but now I am getting frequent bluescreens again "CRITICAL PROCESS DIED". I have tried to change my system settings to create a minidump on bluescreens, but it seems I am not getting an updated minidump, just the one from last week. I will attach a new dm_log which will have updated information but unfortunately not a new minidump. I hope this yields some useful information.

    Thanks!
