BSOD - Google Drive

For the logs only upload V2.
The memory dump debugging did not display any recent misbehaving drivers

See if you can find a friend, neighbor, relative, or local computer store to swap computer hardware components.

Ideally two tests are performed for each component:
a) a new component is tested in the problematic computer
b) the component from the problematic computer is tested in another computer

For CPU AMD can be swapped with AMD or Intel.
For GPU AMD can be swapped with AMD or Nvidia.

See if you can swap the CPU for testing purposes.

Please no longer post share links for memory dumps.

Turn off Windows driver verifier:

Enable and Disable Driver Verifier in Windows 10

Hey guys! I am back!

So I had this tip to test Linux with this PC.

So, right now I am typing from the PC with Ubuntu and everything is great.

No freezing until now.

A little video...

So, I think there is a problem with the M.2 driver and Windows 10.

But I can not find any solutions and I prefer to use Windows.

Any suggestion?

Oh my goodness, we have the exact same board, CPU, M.2 drive and the exact same issue. I even tried Linux like you and had no problems at all.

I am leaning towards the Realtek LAN driver at the moment. I'm gonna' try disabling it and leave the PC going. I'm getting DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL now which seems to be network related.

So we are brothers in suffering....

So, I do not know what else I can do in this case....

Any suggestions?

I have had my PC on for 2 hours with no BSOD. I disabled Realtek Ethernet driver. I'll let you know how it goes later. Haha!

Oh! I thank you a lot!

I will try that too later....

So it stayed on all night fine with the LAN driver disabled, so I decided to boot into Safe Mode with the LAN driver enabled and it has weirdly been fine so far.

I couldn't say if it will stay the same, so I'll have to run Driver Verifier if I get another BSOD.

This is what I did before everything seemingly became a bit more stable:

I went here: https://www.amd.com/en/support

I Installed Chipset > AMD Socket AM4 > B450 > Windows 10 > AMD Chipset Drivers
Went back and grabbed the latest WHQL recommended graphics card drivers (not the optional ones)

I have done this before, but it still gave me a BSOD a couple of times a week. I guess I'll have to wait it out.

@RoLukeSky

Can you go into your BIOS (keep hitting the Delete/F2 when you see the AsRock logo), go to Overclocking > AMD Overclocking and disable Precision Boost Overdrive? I have just done this as I have been reading it's a possible problem because it also can boost your RAM speeds even further than you set them.
