    Random BSODs with various bug checks, possibly a driver is at fault.


    For the past few days someone I know has been getting various bsods at random times. Whether it be sitting idle or playing a game.
    I've been using teamviewer and I have been trying to figure out what the deal is for a few days now and I can't figure out what's going on here.
    I've never looked into blue screens so much in my life before this and I've just about given up.
    From what I've gathered, this could possibly be a bad driver since this is a Windows 10 upgrade from a Windows 8.1, but I can't figure out how to identify it.
    It started happening after a blue screen while playing a game. The computer itself is a prebuilt.
    The bsod checkers I've used consistently point to ntoskrnl.exe being the reason for it. But I've gotten WDFLDR.sys, hal.dll, HDAudBus.sys and such along with it. However they have not appeared since (I've been trying to fix them by updating various drivers).
    We've been fine for the past 2 days, then it happened again 3 times. A fourth time recently when I tried using that Dm Log Collector (and the computer was idle for hours just fine).
    Can anyone point out any suspicious drivers that I should uninstall or update? Or perhaps any other issues?

    Hi Goobert,

    Welcome to the 10forums.

    What has been tried to solve the bluescreens?
    Could you provide some description of what happens when the crash occurs and what you/this person is/are doing?

    Please check Realtek for driver updates for the Realtek network drivers

    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.

    Thanks for the very thorough guide on fixing this. The two drivers you posted and the ways of updating them are exactly what I needed and I'll give them a shot as soon as the computer is available. I'll also post the specs later.

    To attempt to fix this, I figured Realtek was messing something up, so I updated any drivers related to it, as well as the network adapter as those seem to commonly cause crashes. However this didn't seem to fix the issue.

    Code:
     http://www.carrona.org/drivers/driver.php?id=rt640x64.sys
    I didn't use this link to find the drivers, so I'll try this one instead, as well as that Windows driver updater.

    Code:
    http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
    The person said they uninstalled the Nvidia drivers and reinstalled, but I don't think they did it as clean as this tool. I'll give this a go as well.

    There's no consistency with the crashes. The computer could crash within minutes of starting up, or within hours of staying idle or gaming. The crashes also seemed to stop for a few days before returning like usual.

    With Windows driver update you mean what exactly? Device manager?

    Wow, I honestly have no idea. I swear there was a link in that post to some driver updating program but I don't see it there now.
    But it looked sketchy and I've heard about driver updater programs causing problems so I didn't do it.

    Working on the Nvidia display drivers and realtek drivers right now.


    Here are the system specs in the mean time.

    Win10 Auto Installation Program (SID:1779114)
    This is what I chose to update for the Realtek network drivers. Is this correct? I already had this installed so the fact that it's outdated seems strange.

    I did a clean install of Nvidia's drivers as instructed.

    Please put the system specs in your 'My System Specs', that way it is easier for everyone to check them.
    Below in every post on the left side, there you can find 'My System Specs'. If you click on it with your post, you see the option 'Update your System Specs', click on it and you will get to the page where you can update your system specs.

    I only add the time for comparisation, it doesn't mean the drivers are outdated.
    Sometimes a reinstallation of a driver helps, because a driver may have become corrupted.

    Alright I added the specs of the computer.

    Doing a full reinstall of the Nvidia Drivers has helped the computer last a lot longer until a blue screen (about 5-6 hours).

    However it's still happening. I re did the Log DM Collector Tool with the new crashes.
