    Windows 10 it crashes the sys

    Windows 10 crashes my sys at the 32% install. After reinstalling Windows 8.1 I have to disable auto new device install or the sys will crash

    What is semav6msr64.sys & Mellanox Drivers?


    Thanks - as I further check, I first disabled semav6msr64.sys using Autoruns then rebooted. I didn't have the first registry key but deleted the second and deleted the driver file. I now have no trace of semav6msr64.sys.

    watchdog.sys and dxgkrnl.sys drivers crashing while in games

    BSOD DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL L1C63x64.sys

    Hi,

    The driver that appears to cause the crash is the L1C63x64.sys which is the driver for the Atheros network adapter.

    The L1C63x64.sys appears to be at version 2.1.0.16 from 2013.

    There should be an updated driver available from Windows Update.

    Can you do the following:

    Open the Device Manager and right-click the Qualcomm Atheros network adapter > Properties > Details, then choose "Hardware Ids" from the drop-down menu under "Property".

    What is listed under "Value"?
