Two diffrent BSODs after Windows 10 update + battery issues

Muzgar15 · 04 Oct 2015

After I upgraded to Windows 10 from 8.1 about a week ago I got two BSODs. The first one happened randomly. I downloaded BlueScreenView to see what the problem was. It highlighted two drivers HDAudBus.sys and ntoskrnl.exe. I thought that this was maybe just a random crash so I didn't do anything. I started noticing another problem with my computer. When the battery was completly drained (fell asleep while watching a movie) I plugged in the power adapter and charged up the laptop. When it was done charging I wanted to boot it up, but it didn't want to start up again, so I removed the battery and waited a couple of seconds and put the battery back in and the computer started up normally. This didn't happen before on Windows 8.1. Today I also noticed that when I closed the computer lid (almost fully charged) and left it plugged into the power it did the exact same thing as when I drained the battery completly. I thought this was strange so I went and did a system check with the Dell tool. During the system analysis is when the second BSOD happened. The error description was DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. So I checked the report with BlueScreen and there were two drivers highlighted. Nvlddmkm.sys (NVIDIA Windows Kernel mode driver) and once again the ntoskrnl.exe. I would like to know how can I fix these problems, because I don't want to keep running into BSODs, especially when doing important school work and such. What drivers should I delete/replace/update.Attachment 40992
P.S.: I am using a Dell Inspiron 17 5748 laptop.

Hi Muzgar15,

Welcome to the 10forums.

As the Nvidia Video driver is indeed a cause
Please uninstall everything of Nvidia using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from your manufacturer.

Code:

2: kd> lmvm nvlddmkm
start             end                 module name
fffff800`a1720000 fffff800`a2208000   nvlddmkm T (no symbols)

The Wifi network driver has been flagged too, please check your manufacturer for driver updates.
