BSODs most often when booting, coming from standby or screensaver
Hey all. This post is 6 months too late but after much fiddling, mindless research telling me to run memory tests, 5 OS reinstalls and replacing several hardware items I am coming at my wits end. I have no idea what to do here. I will often get clusters of BSODs, followed by periods of nothing, followed again by 5 or even 10 BSOD cycles. Unfortunately, in trying to fix the error (assuming bad HW at this point) I got a new SSD thinking maybe that was the culprit. I was using an old OWC from a Mac expansion build from back in 2011 and thought maybe it was either not compatible or just too old. Anyway, my log per V2 Log is attached. There was only 1 minidump but this most recent cluster included the following errors right as I was logging in:
- kmode_exception_not_handled (FLTMGR.SYS)
- Page_Fault_in_in_nonpaged_area (no file called out)
- system_thread_exception_not_handled (no file called out)
- system_thread_exception_not_handled (wimfsf.sys) <- this last one was fast, and not sure I got it right since after I googled it said this was a Norton-related file. This was a clean install as of 30 minutes ago so no virusscan other than what MS provided.
Furthermore, as I have been typing this no bluescreens. I have switched out RAM 3 times, and replaced my SSD with a 970 EVO Plus 500GB and run 2 36 hour burn-ins and 4 memtests with 0 errors or warnings (hoping I could catch the mobo or CPU acting the fool.
FWIW, I am experienced in IT support and will be happy to assist with any other information and direction you all can give. Thank you in advance.
