BSOD - intelppm.sys

alyraver · 14 Apr 2018

hi all

I had a random BSOD today whilst in the middle of playing Arma 3, and i'm not entirely sure whats causing it.

According to BlueScreenView it was caused by driver - intelppm.sys

Pc spec is as follows:

8700k @ 5ghz
Maximus X Formula
16gb team dark ram
1080ti
win 10
(Everything is stable using prime)

its a new build and as far as I'm aware all drivers are up to date

Is anyone able to have a look to see how i can resolve it?

many thanks

Have you tried the beta10 log collector provided at the end of the BSOD Posting instructions? This new one may work better for your system.

ah cool - I didn't see that bit - ok so I've attached the zip - hopefully that's the right one

Make sure you are not overclocking your system. Your memory speed is higher than recommended for the CPU. Overclocking is a frequent cause of BSOD.

Your max turbo frequency should be 4.70GHz
Recommended memory type is DDR4-2666

asides from the overclock is there anything else I need to look at?

There was nothing obvious about drivers that showed up in the debugging.
