    Clean installed Windows 10 Pro - then got 2 BSODs in a row


    I completely erased my SSD drive to the factory reset state. Then, I clean-installed Windows 10 Pro, and a few other programs that I normally use. Everything was running well for a couple of days, when I suddenly got 2 BSOD attacks twice in a row, for seemingly no apparent reason.
    It was frustrating to know that after wiping my hard drive and clean-installing Windows and re-installing everything else, that the system was running fine, until I suddenly and unexpectedly got 2 BSODs, both within an hour of each other.
    Please let me know what could have been causing that after everything was freshly installed. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello,

    Looking at your files I can see the two BSOD events occurred on July 1st. The crash dumps have now been deleted off your system so they were not captured in the logfiles.

    According to the event log they were both 0xC2 stop codes - Bad Pool Caller and these are usually related to driver issues. In order to flush out the bad drivers you will need to run Driver Verifier - this has some risk so please read all the warnings in the tutorial linked to below.



    Diagnostic Test

     DRIVER VERIFIER


    warning   Warning
    Please make a backup of your important files and get your rescue media or create one.
    Please create a restore point.

    Please read and run driver verifier.

    If you suspect a driver is causing a problem but do not have a clear idea which one it is then Driver Verifier stresses your drivers and will crash your pc if any driver fails due to a violation.

    Driver verifier should be performed for a max of 48 hours, or until you have a bluescreen, whichever comes first.

    If driver verifier has found a violation and you can't get back into windows normally, try to boot into safe mode and reset driver verifier from within safe mode, or in the troubleshooting options open command prompt and type verifier /reset.

    Note   Note
    Your system will act very sluggishly while driver verifier is enabled, this is normal as your drivers will be being subjected to heavy testing in order to make them crash.
