Frequent BSOD Varied Error Messages

Tyrejj · 30 Oct 2015

My system is a pre built Dell, so my BIOS is locked. I haven't been able to find a way to get around that.

OK, no problem, then we know for sure the BIOS settings aren't the problem.

If you had meanwhile BSOD's, just run the DM Log Collector tool again, upload the zip file and I'll take a look at it :)

Ok, I haven't been using that computer enough right now to provide more dump files. Also I think my settings for creating dump files were wrong, which could be why I only had four, I've corrected the settings and I'll work on collecting more minidumps. Thank you (:

I've had some more crashing recently after it stopped for awhile. I've attached a new zip file, I collected more minidumps, it seemed like there should have been more than 11 though. I also received this error at one point during startup after a bsod.

2 are related to memory issues (0x4E(PFN_LIST_CORRUPT) and 0x1A(MEMORY_MANAGEMENT))
A 3rd I suspect also being caused by memory (0x18(REFERENCE_BY_POINTER))
But since the RAM should be ruled out, it means drivers are causing issues.

2 drivers have been flagged

Please uninstall everything of Nvidia using Display Driver Uninstaller and install new drivers from Nvidia. Be sure the clean install box is checked and only install the Graphics driver and the PhysX driver.

Ok, I ran DDU again, this time I didn't allow Windows to automatically install the drivers again, I only installed the graphics driver and the PhysX driver. I am still getting blue screens.

I'm concerned about that iastor.sys one, after searching a little bit I saw that others have had issues with this driver and windows 10, but I haven't seen a solution yet. On the driver reference table you've linked there are only update links for XP, Vista and 7, could this driver be incompatible with 10? Should I try a installation of Windows?

axe0 · 19 Nov 2015

That driver is definitely! incompatible, look at its date.

Please check the mainboard manufacturer for BIOS updates.
Run also hardware diagnostics Hardware Diagnostics

Tyrejj · 19 Nov 2015

Ok great, should I test the memory again or only run the HDD diagnostics?

Also I like to add in case it could be related, my computer has stopped waking up after sleep recently.

axe0 · 19 Nov 2015

Run every test you would like to do
