Driver Related BSOD - Driver Verifier

I recently started a new job and was given a new Dell Laptop. I am having seemingly randomly BSOD issues. Some days it doesn't happen at all and some days it can happen up to ten times. I've got several BSOD errors (mainly CRITICAL PROCESS DIED). I believe it's a driver

related issue. I've tried updating all my drivers and firmware to no avail.

I used the Driver Verifier and immediately got errors with sedfilter.sys and symefasi64.sys. I had to boot into safe mode to turn the verifier off. I tried the verifier without those two enabled and got DRIVER VERIFIER DETECTED VIOLATION.

Help would be greatly appreciated, this issue is a real pain!

Here are the debug files:

I found this with a Google search:

sedfilter.sys
Description: Related to SED Enhancement Driver from Dell Inc.

Axe0 will guide you there but my brief look at the dumps indicates ccSetx64.sys which belongs to Symantec (Norton).

Wait and see what axe0 has to say but I wouldn't surprised if he asked you to uninstall your Norton AV software and try something else.

Edit: 2nd dump indicates another Norton file: IDSvia64.sys

These all seem like Symantec drivers. Any recommendations?

Correct, please try to reinstall Symantec or remove it while troubleshooting.

Please disable driver verifier

• Open an admin command prompt
• Enter "verifier/reset" (without quotes)

Why exactly is driver verifier enabled?
