  1. Why do I keep getting event error code 161?


    My computer keeps crashing and I don't understand why. It just says, "Dump file creation failed due to error during dump creation." in the event ID and that it's 161, and something called volmgr. When it freezes, the screen freezes, slightly glitches, and the audio glitches too. It seems to stay that way unless I force it to shut down, which I always do. There is also no task category. I'll also get a critical error that says, "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error&n

    BIOS error codes

    So I have motherboard with installed small LED screen, which presents BIOS error codes.

    Where can I find a list of those errors. And I don't mean beep codes, but the "number" codes.

    Ex after installing sound card, the motherboard startup fails with the code 15.

    Example picture of code is here.

    Windows 10 1809 - slow shutdowns / volmgr errors (Event ID 161) since update

    I installed the update yesterday (64 bit / i7-6700K CPU / 32GB RAM, enough free disc space) and since then I have had issues with shutdowns/reboots being very slow.

    Amongst other things, I have -

    • ran the Power Troubleshooter
    • ran SFC / SCANNOW
    • verified that \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management equals 0
    • ran Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
    • changed Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\WaitToKillServiceTimeout to 0
    No issues were identified.

    I also now see the following events logged in the System Event log -

    Dump file creation failed due to error during dump creation. - Source - volmgr / Event ID 161

    Any ideas please ?

    Thanks

    System Rebooting - Event ID 41 & Event ID 161

    Hello,

    My system has started rebooting without BSOD randomly, but usually when playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider or other programs that have the PC under load. Today, it did it when trying to open a system information viewer program when nothing else was running.

    The CPU and other components are within proper thermal limits, I've tested memory multiple times with no faults, tested all drives, and ran the DISM tool and SFC with no errors reported. The machine was built a few months ago but the power supply is from
    a previous build (2015). I suspect it may be the cause.

    There is little information in the Event Viewer but seems to consistently contain the 2 problems at time of reboot:

    Error

    Source: volmgr

    Event ID: 161

    Critical

    Source: Kernal-Power

    Event ID 41

    Bugcheck Code 201

    Please let me know what additional information you need to troubleshoot this problem.

    Thank you!
