    BSOD "Faulty Hardware"


    New PC.
    BSOD "Faulty hardware corrupted page"
    All drivers are latest (Lan, chipset, Audio, Samsung NVMe, GPU).
    SFC /scannow and dism /online /checkhealth report no corruptions.
    chkdsk reports no errors.

    Attached are some dump files.

    System specs;
    Boot drive: Kingston KC3000 1TB
    Data SSD: Samsung Evo Plus 970 1TB
    Data HDD: Seagate St8000VN0004
    GPU: Gigabyte RTX 3060
    Mobo: MSI Z790-A Pro
    PSU: Corsair RM750x
    CPU: Intel 13600KF not overclocked.
    RAM: G.Skill F4-3600C16Q-32GVKC on QVL
    Case: Fractal Design Pop Air XL
    Keyboard: Logitech G105
    Mouse: Razer Taipan
    Head Set: Logitech G633 Artemis
    Monitors Viewsonic VX3276-2K x 2

    Windows 10 21H2 19044.2728.
    Page file system managed size on HDD 8.8GB.

    Anything else needed?
    EDIT: memory has been run through Windows Memory Diagnostic and Memtest and come up clean as a kit of 4 and 1 stick at a time.

    I'm guessing at the fault was in ntoskrnl.exe and that is says "faulty hardware" I should replace my ram regardless of the fact that it continually passes all tests?

    Other codes; See attached

    Can you download and run the V2 log collector as described in the BSOD Posting Instructions please? It gives us all the troubleshooting data we need.

    Just from these two dumps this looks like a RAM problem - despite Memtest having passed it. Have you run Memtest86?

    Yes. Several times.

    I bought a new memory kit - same brand and model and size. I'll watch it for a couple of days and see how it goes.

    Lol. I downloaded the collector and ran it... silly me... on my PC, not the BSOD PC... so won't upload this one.

    There were three problems in the end.

    The first problem was a faulty memory stick. Replaced that kit and no more BSODs.

    The second problem turned out to be an incompatible AIO cooler. My son was using a Corsair cooler with a LGA 1700 compatibility kit. The kit did not make the cooler compatible... All marketing hype.

    Replaced the Cooler, uninstalled the Corsairlink software and replaced it with a program called Fan Control and the computer stopped freezing.

    The last problem was related to the maximum size of the pagefile.sys. It was set to 8192MB. When Windows tried to write bigger than that I got a BSOD. Set it to system managed size (and it ended up writing a ~16GB pagefile.sys), that solved the BSODs for that.
