    Constant Blue Screens


    I am on an Inspiron 15 laptop. Purchased Nov 2018. As of a couple of weeks ago, every day I am shut down with a blue screen. I ran a system check and it came up with the following information -- see graphic: I looked on the Dell site for fixes but did not see any. "corrupt OS image?" Bootable device. I don't know what to make of this. Has anyone got a possible fix that I can manage without installing 10 again. Thank you. I'm going to close b/f I get a crash. Thanks.

    It would seem your system is having trouble recovering from Hibernation. I'd recommend disabling it and see if the BSODs persist.

    Enable or Disable Hibernate in Windows 10

    Uninstall McAfee and use one Anti-virus software. I'd recommend Windows 10's built in Windows Defender and perhaps MBAM.

    To be safe, run an integrity scan of the OS.

    Open an elevated (Run as admin) Command Prompt and type the following:
    sfc /scannow

    Let it run. Do this after disabling Hibernation.
    Code:
    2: kd> !analyze -v

    Thank you Kyle. I will do those dehibernation steps when I wake up a bit. I do not use McAfee. I use Windows defender. Also MBAM. Thanks again. If I can avoid reinstalling Windows, I would be happy. I'll be back

    - - - Updated - - -

    Duh - I don't seem to be able to locate where I find the elevated command prompt. If I go into administrative tools it comes up with windows power shell. When I open that it wants an elevated ..... I don't work in the admin site usually and as I was scrolling thru I saw McAfee listed. I guess it's installed which I didn't know. I will have to uninstall it as you recommend. Thanks again.

    In the start menu type "Command Prompt", right click and choose "Run as administrator".

    Edit: If you use a password to logon, you may have to enter your password to proceed so in case that is the case, just type in the password used to logon.

    Hi Kyle - figured out elevated cmd prompt - ran sfcscannow and it came up with the following:

    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them.
    For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at
    windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline
    repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE fla

    I still can't seem to get to that power setting in settings. Hope it is solved. When the scan first started system crashed. I went back in and restarted and it worked. Thanks again.

    Start menu: Search for "Power & sleep settings" > "Additional power settings".

    It should come up like this:
    Constant Blue Screens-explorer_uardbdkw4i.png
    On the left pane click "Change when my computer sleeps".

    After doing the above in the screenshot, reboot the system. Report back any issues that may follow.

    This my support here solves your issue, please give "Thanks" as it adds to my rep. :)

    OK did all of power settings - the NEVER was already in play on that setting. I was happy to see in that sfcscannow entry that corrupt files were found and fixed. I also don't know how that hibernation thing got into play either. I guess stuff just happens. Will give you a thanks for the help. I'll let you know if anything should change. Regards...

    With laptops, hibernation is generally a feature of battery preservation. When the laptop isn't in use (when you close the lid for example, without shutting down correctly) it'll sometimes 'sleep' or 'hibernate' to conserve power, although the system technically still runs, it kind of runs in low power mode, or saves the current session into memory by something called NVRAM (Non-volitile Random Access Memory).

    Once the lid opens back up, it should power back up and pick up where you left off. It's a handy feature but issues can potentially arise from its use sometimes.

    You're most welcome. Feel free to submit a new thread if you have any further issues of a different nature (that don't pertain to the same BSOD). :)
