Hello,
I would like to help with the BSOD - CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION problem on my HP Pavilion Power 17-ab412nc Shadow Black laptop . I added the LOG file below. The problem is manifested 2-3 per week. I don't know the cause.
Thank you.
Kamil
Hello Kamil521 and welcome to TenForums
There was one crash dump file in the logs and this showed a hardware memory error. Please test as shown below.
Code:FAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGE (12b) This bugcheck indicates that a single bit error was found in this page. This is a hardware memory error. Arguments: Arg1: ffffffffc00002c4, virtual address mapping the corrupted page Arg2: 000000000000014e, physical page number Arg3: 00000000031007d0, zero Arg4: ffffe2818a76e000, zero
For DDR4, follow this tutorial: MemTest86 v8.1 Free Memory Testing Tool Review
This diagnostic tool is designed to test Random Access Memory (RAM) for faults. It will verify that:
- RAM will accept and keep random patterns of data sent to it
- There are no errors when different parts of memory try to interact
- There are no conflicts between memory addresses
It runs from bootable media to isolate the RAM from the system, no other components are taken into account during the test.
Warning
Memtest86 needs to run for at least 8 passes to be anywhere near conclusive, anything less will not give a complete analysis of the RAM. The new version of Memtest86 only allows 4 passes for the free version so run it twice, back to back.
Note
This diagnostic has been known to discover errors in RAM in later passes than the eighth pass. This is for information only; if you feel there is a definite problem with the RAM and 8 passes have shown no errors feel free to continue for longer.
Running 4+4 passes of Memtest86 is a long and drawn out exercise and the more RAM you have the longer it will take. It's recommended to run it overnight, starting just before you go to bed and leave it overnight.
Take a picture when done and post in the forum please.
